A new promotional video highlighting World of Warcraft: Forever’s Booty Bay takes a potshot at Pirate Software’s infamous raid incident from 2025.
Although it’s fair to say that Pirate Software is mostly known for his loud opposition to the Stop Killing Games movement and the ensuing backlash that followed, he’s also quite the figure in World of Warcraft. Like with the SKG situation, though, it’s not exactly for positive reasons, as he’s become both a meme and a martyr.
The drama stems from Pirate Software’s involvement in a Dire Maul raid with OnlyFangs back in 2025, where the streamer, playing as a mage, abandoned his group and caused the death of two members. After much arguing and criticism, it eventually led to Pirate Software being kicked from the group, something that now even Blizzard is making fun of.
As pointed out by Twitter user NyceGamingYT, IGN recently uploaded a new trailer for World of Warcraft: Forever, which features Bill Bailey as a narrator highlighting some of the game’s iconic locations. The latest episode of the series features a look at Booty Bay, with Bailey noting that it’s where you’ll find “goblins, gankers, and pirates”.
This world is huge and storied...
