The last week has been full of fun discoveries for Legion … but for me personally, Chris Metzen’s retirement was a bitter end to the last seven days. Through the many ups and downs of Blizzard games, Chris was an ongoing inspiration for me through his passion for his creations and those of Blizzard as a whole. He was an unashamed, unabashed geek, and his stage presence will be missed at BlizzCon 2016.
The man is retired, though, not dead — so let’s not mourn someone who’s going on to enjoy life. Instead, let’s revisit those high points of the last week.
