Key Takeaways

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that Mizkif’s dedication to recreating the iconic “South Park” scene for WoW Classic’s Anniversary Realms launch truly takes the cake. It’s not every day you see such a perfect homage to one of the most memorable episodes in gaming history.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve recreated the legendary South Park basement setup from the iconic “Make Love, Not Warcraft” episode in celebration of the World of Warcraft Classic Anniversary Realms. My pals and I are currently immersed in the new World of Warcraft servers, all while tipping our hats to the beloved South Park scene.

November 11 marked the launch of new Classic realms for “World of Warcraft” to celebrate its 20th anniversary. These massive servers offer a fresh start for the retro “WoW” realms, following the same progression as the original servers did in 2004 and the first run of “Classic” did in 2019, starting with Vanilla and The Burning Crusade phases.

In the spirit of the fresh territories, OTK co-founder reminisced by reenacting a scene from his past. As he went live, he and Twitch streamers Simply, Bean, and Russel delighted viewers with an accurate depiction of the famous basement scene from the “Make Love, Not Warcraft” South Park episode. He even incorporated lines from Cartman’s speech about hunting boars in the original South Park episode. However, viewers should note that, during their enthusiasm, Mizkif and his LAN party friends occasionally use explicit language.

Mizkif’s WoW Classic Anniversary Realms Setup

The eighth episode of South Park’s tenth season, titled ‘Make Love, Not Warcraft’, originally aired on October 4, 2006. This highly praised episode incorporated machinima footage from World of Warcraft, making it the first such work to win an Emmy Award. Today, almost 20 years later, ‘Make Love, Not Warcraft’ is often hailed as one of South Park’s best episodes by both fans and critics. The influence of this episode can still be seen in the World of Warcraft cosplay community and various social media platforms. Even Hearthstone, a popular card game, has referenced it through the Sword of a Thousand Truths in the ‘United in Stormwind’ set, which is obtained by killing seven Elwynn Boars.

Mizkif’s experience with WoW Classic Fresh run hasn’t been smooth sailing thus far. Alongside his guild, OnlyFangs, they’re playing in Hardcore mode, and Mizkif has already perished twice within the initial 24 hours. Despite these setbacks, he remains undeterred. His third character is currently progressing towards the Wailing Caverns, keeping his adventure alive with possibility.

Mizkif wasn’t the only member of OTK who went all out in celebrating the new World of Warcraft realms. In fact, Esfand took things a step further by fully embodying his Troll Shaman character. He donned bright blue body paint, a red wig, and even used chin and nose prosthetics. It’s safe to say that the launch of World of Warcraft’s 20th Anniversary Realms is shaping up to be quite the spectacle, thanks to these streamers.
