Was WoW's "tribute" to Robin Williams a money grab?

Then yeah, they're taking comercial advantage of a man's death.

EDIT: Now who do I trust D:

Its pretty simple WoW is a subscription based game, you pay the sub you get all of WoW, Wilians is beieng added as an in game NPC wihc will cost no extra money at all, however since he is an in game NPC you can only see him if you play WoW, wich costs you a subscription fee. Its stupid to see any evil in this, if you want to be in World of Warcraft you gota pay the sub. He is not beeing added to make ppl sub he is beeing added to ppay tribute and 10 years from now someone starting in WoW will see the guy and go "hey look Robbin willians".

 

Blizzard hasnt even made any sort of publicity stunt based on this they answered the petition and end of story, there was no press release no nothing, theyre just, truly, paying an homage to someone who admited to be an avid WoW fan/player while he was alive is that this hard ot understand.

Do you work for blizzard or something? Your irrational defence of it is quite alarming. If what you said was true they would donate a portion to charity, but they don't. It all goes in their pocket.

Theres only 1 individual on this conversation who is irrational, this is not a conversation this is the ravings of a lunatic on some Crusade against evil Blizzard for paying tribute to a great guy imortalizing him in theyre game.

They are profiting off his death and they just increased the price of the paywall to see him. Its as simple as that. I'm sorry you are so blinded by bias that you can't see that.
