After venturing too deep into uncharted territory from the alpha of World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, Asmongold and his party were struck down by a mysterious force – later to be r💫evealed as Blizzard Game Master Zorbix.
Asmongold began at Revendreth (the supposed starting zone of the expansion,) but instantly decided to break outside of the map's boundaries. Between the five zones that Shadowlands features – Bastion, Ardenweald, Revendreth, Maldraxxus, and The Maw – was some sort of nebulous, blue void. The Twitc𝕴h streamer decided that he wante⛎d to explore for bugs, and boy did he find some.
After romping around in the void (an area clearly unintended for players,) he essentially clipped outside of the world's boundaries. From under the map, he took a look at Ardenweald, the epic tower of Oribos, The Maw, and even an asset areaﷺ for devs – revealing a glitched-out view of some unrevealed🀅 game content.
He managed to far sight/eagle eye his way up a massive wall to eventually get inside of The Maw, uncovering some awe🧔some areas for his audience. After accidentally exiting the zo🧸ne, he and his party then attempted to explore Maldraxxus. But as Icarus flew too high towards the sun, overwhelmed by curiosity and ambition, so did Asmongold and his crew.
One by one, his party members dropped dead in front of him. An invisible force completely wiped Asmongold and his friends out, much to his dismay. He theorized that they had been defeated by♍ "the long🌼 dick of the law," calling them "f**king cowards." But just when he thought the mystery would never be truly solved, an assailant briefly revealed himself.
Zorbix, one of the current Game Masters for WoW, simply stated "gg" and disappeared again, l♏eaving the streamer and his crew completely in awe. Asmongold was out of time anyways and began the "Allcraft" podcast portion of the stream, handling the slaughter with humor.
Even though the developers didn't fight fair, the alpha-testers were purposely glitching outside of the map and knew what they were getting themselves into. Like Redditor "NvIWraith" wrote, it is pretty awesome to see developers bump elbows with their players in-game – ev🌺en if they are there to murder them.
