For the uninitiated/lazy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrupted_Blood_incident
After several failed hotfixes, Blizzard ended the pandemic by performing a hard reset, and a later patch prevented companions from contracting Corrupted Blood entirely.
Note to the future: next pandemic, try a hard reset.
Seriously though, it’s wild they couldn’t hotfix it.
Huh, TIL. Neat.
Who else remembers learning this from Cracked articles (which they read at work)?
Man i really miss Cracked. It used to be so good.
I still credit my sense of humor to Cracked.
And who else didn’t need an article because they were there when it happened?
Also, if you like videos: https://youtu.be/EB3jOD2wjUc
