Activision Blizzard has changed another name in mundo de warcraft as part of the continuous attempts of the company to offer a more inclusive environment. The last example is the Gorge the Corpsegrinder character, which will now be called Annihilator Grek lor. As with the characters who bear the name of Jesse McCree, the name Gorge has been modified according to the actions of the metayae of it. In this case, the character bears the name of George «CorpseGrinder» Fisher, leader of the Cannibal Metal Band Corpse. In 2007, Fisher declared the love of him by Warcraft s world while using multiple homophobic insults, in a clip that was also broadcast on the 2011 BlizzCon before a Fisher set.
The Blizzcon version of that interview was censored, but the transmission of the clip caused a violent reaction against Blizzard by fanatics. At that time, the then current president of Blizzard, Mike Morhaime, apologized for the clip. In a letter to GayGamer, but the name of the character is still part of Warcraft s back for years. The change occurs shortly after the disclosure that the character Finkle Einhorn has also been renamed in the game. Einhorn was a reference to the villain in ace ventura: pet detective , who appears as a transgender at the end of the film. The representation of that character in the film has been a source of controversy for years, so it is not surprising that the name has been changed. Interestingly, Fisher and the rest of Cannibal Corpse appeared in Detective of pets , playing themselves.
In addition to the changes in the names of the characters in mundo by Warcraft Activision Blizzard has made many other changes in the game. In particular, the company has altered the names of elements, missions and more. These changes are part of a broader goal of the company after accusations of racism, sexism and a culture of children from fraternity .
