Story Time with Chris Metzen: Snow Fight

[@daemonsalad]

This is the single greatest thing. The man himself, reading a bedtime story for me, a big baby.

[@lI-tm2pn]

There should have been a page where they go to Goldshire Inn and they ERP with a druid bear and a two naked draenei.

[@Frank_144]

Cringe

[@Tomelle_]

Frank 144 no

[@oldorio2252]

Not gonna lie, I wish he did thrall's voice while reading

[@Arxareon]

And Varian's of course! ;)

[@Icaras]

[@cgwifey08]

[@vickystrudwick3939]

[@azurehue2248]

Varian's voice is way better. :^)

[@ARandomSub]

[@Amplifymagic]

[@everybodylieshm]

Good to see Chris again! Blizzcon isn't the same without him

[@grennbalze]

Can we get more of these?

[@kirksaintpatrick3921]

Please Chris, can we have some more of these?!

[@cindernickleson7228]

yeah just go to the second-hand store and pick out random kids books.

[@IUNFE]

Come back to Blizzard Chris, we Blizzard fans miss you.

[@DrSmugface]

Blizzard as we knew it is dead ..blizzard did not change because Chris and other left ...they left because blizzard changed

[@HibouCurieux]

Blizzard is dead...no passion anymore... only being rich with 3 account no balls dumb player is ok now

[@daynarisbarathion8602]

ActiBlizz would be HERESY for uncle Thrall to work with! He is too good for that garbage Greed-corp!

[@fomod_]

This is so out of the blue it's amazing

[@gutspillage]

Let's talk real here. Everyone watching this is around 30 years old. No "young ones".

[@perseus1054]

[@ForTheHordeCro]

This is the cutest thing I've seen this week! Chris has luckiest kids in the world if he reads them stories like that at home.

[@nioxic77]

spending time with the family, was one of the main reasons he retired

[@darkworld9850]

Mikkel H And also because he had panic attacks.

[@Uniitti]

Well, I certainly did not expect this. Five minutes full of wonderful wholesomeness. And it made me happy.

[@InuyashaDende]

omg omg omg omg omg I literally sat here with a huge smile on my face, listening and looking at Chris, like a big happy child who got told a bedtime story from her most favorite storyteller

[@ValIice]

Man I really needed to see someone whos name just gives me hope. Thanks much Chris Metzen

[@vaellir6329]

Neighborhood bully Arthas... yeah that is canon now :D

[@Hammeh]

Thanks Chris...massive smile on my face seeing this in my feed! 😁 Hope you and family are keeping well in these strange times!

[@Baeumchenn]

I miss you Chris :.(

[@4regoverland]

I watched this and I'm 38 years young.

[@Masilya111]

Great to see Chris is doing fine and yeah Wei Wang is so talented.

[@aaghkkthoof]

[@JordanBloodworth]

[@debilita9999]

I can't stop my grin of joy minutes after I finished watching. :) Almost cried. THANK YOU CHRIS

[@UghieYucky]

Metzen! Really miss him, but so glad he's doing better

[@mr.midnight8090]

Thank you Chris! It’s good to see you again! Very proud and impressed by your friends book it’s really clever!

[@chellwedance]

Thank you Chris Metzen and blizzard!!! That made me smile!!

[@VTT]

Chris, you were the heart of Blizzard. Without you, Blizzard is just an empty shell.

[@legufka]

i love this man

[@GgGTeMpLaR]

Someone did something he didn't like at 0:56

[@jGRite]

I TOLD YOU I'D BE RECORDING! I TOLD YOU! -that face

[@smallbeard]

I may be in my 20's, but I'm definitely wearing a child's grin hearing my warchief tell me such a wholesome story in such a Metzen-manner. Thank you so much, Chris! Filling my heart here.

[@8centimeter]

I have never ever in my life heard a better bedtime story. And its also from Metzen himself. I'm satisfied .

[@Waggehful]

More metzen is always a good thing

[@katieskarlette]

OMG that was the most heartwarming thing ever. Bless you, Chris.

[@bluestardragon7598]

Hey, here's some voicelines I would like Widowmaker to have: 1) *"Why don't you make yourself useful and die"* (plays when Widowmaker fails to make a headshot, also unlockable for the player to use and equip.) 2) *"le boop"* (plays when Widowmaker makes a headshot, also unlockable for player to use and equip. We have to have our boop memes!) *LIKE IF YOU AGREE WIDOWMAKER NEEDS THESE LINES!!!*

[@madpierrot6265]

Remember when blizzard said they were going to listen and learn? What happened to that?

[@Escalusia]

i miss chris im so happy to have his angel voice fill my ears with soothing joy

[@xathero9160]

Hey Chris, wonderful read of the story! Thanks for everything you’ve done and still continue to do for us!

[@davidwilson2916]

I never knew I wanted this, but I'm glad that it exists!

[@victordelatorrehortelano]

This man was the hearth and soul of Blizzard, we miss you Chris :)

[@kxmode]

"My son, the day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name... ᵇᵘˡˡʸ"

[@JasperLane]

Oh cool comments are not turned off on this. Chris, hate to do this, you seem like a decent guy but with that said. *Ahem* Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our time

[@daynarisbarathion8602]

Also, God save the Middle Kingdom from the commies!

[@germanicaartifex6402]

I was looking for this comment. Next to Blitzchung/Hong Kong we also have not forgotten how they fired 800 employees right after a year of record profits.

[@azurehue2248]

You do realize this man...is not with the company, right? He retired like 5 years ago. Can you stop?

[@JasperLane]

@@azurehue2248 Ah thanks for reminding me! Got to comment on the newest video.

[@hugqueiros]

Thk u Chris for this surprise,seeing u is always heartwarming 💗

[@sadams5659]

So great to hear him again!

[@hambots2051]

CRISSSSSSS Im so happy to see you again !!!!

[@Skollshorties]

Wholesome.

[@FratinandMadrik]

More of this, please!

[@kakapoleon]

Chris, Blizzard is no longer the same Blizzard after your retirement, how I miss you and the old Blizzard!

[@Ranjuwean0Thor]

Wonder if they are gonna disable comments on this one

[@HuorNumenesse]

We miss you dude, very big hug!

[@talvionline1280]

Ah Metzen - glad to see you’re keeping well. This was beautiful and I think I’m going to have to get a copy of the book to read to my six year old. Thanks for your time from your busy schedule - we miss you so much! :)

[@ChrisResecker87]

Now can we get papa Jeff to read us a Overwatch story?!

[@RetroArcadeFan1]

Chris come back full time dude we all miss you

[@AdamNDJ]

We miss you Chris! Great seeing you again.

[@SanctuarySanity]

Thank you so much Chris, was having a bit of a rough day but this was just what i needed to put a smile on my face!!!

[@theFarticle]

What a gift! Thanks Chris.

[@VinnieMTG2024]

Chris!!!!!! Miss you ! Much love!

[@giacomo688]

Im really happy to see that you are feeling better chris. Keep going and carry on

[@marostrifezza899]

I am seeing that there are mostly thumbs down on the latest Blizzaed videos. Why is that?

[@dantheman113]

Got this and have been reading it to my daughter A LOT.

[@gwiibear4875]

Christ Metzen, Son of the Storm, The Bourbon Cowboy, THUNDERGOD !! I never met you, but you're someone important to me that made a great impact in my life designing the greatest game ever that created that flame in me for fantasies and adventures. You were involved to the fullest from the start, and from the start I played your games. I never met you, but I felt your absence deeply when it got time for you to take a step back from your work in Blizzard Entertainment. They will never be able to replace the Sons of the Storm works. When you guys are completely gone, it will be forever, and that sadden me, I hope Activision Blizzard Entertainment treat you well and cherish you because you guys are their very, very core and heart, I hope they do as much as I cherish the memories you made me experience; and for this Metzen, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@HanaAi988]

thank you so much chris! :)

[@ryanconnaughton3513]

Love this. Bought this book for my daughter when she was little. Just watched it with her and we both had a nostalgia bomb. ❤

[@Freeasacar]

Wei Wang's portrait of a female Blood Elf Paladin is my favorite ever piece of Warcraft art. It's featured on the back of the BradyGames TBC strategy guide which I still own along with his portrait of a female Draenei. Such a great artist.

[@pcmasterrace9919]

HELP! I have a problem, I bought Diablo® III: Reaper of Souls ™ - Deluxe Digital Update 3 days ago and when I enter the collection option nothing of what it shows in the game description appears to me.

[@limegl0wstix]

thank you so much for this

[@li_bruh8521]

He needs to come back. Blizzard has never been the same since he left.

[@azurehue2248]

He left Blizzard probably because of all the inner turmoil. Around the time he left, a lot of other people very quietly left. Mike Morhaim left a year later. Chris states its because of "burnout" and while I'm sure that's not a lie, he didn't have the kind of power to save the company he founded from itself. Trust me, he's better off where he is and I'm sure he knows that. Not to you know, speak for the dude.

[@battlegirljess]

I bought this for my brother when I found out I was going to be an aunt. 🥰 Love this!

[@Just_some_Ape]

Thank you Chris Metzen

[@invadersharie]

I'm just discovering these vids and for whatever reason this has me bawling but I'm a good way

[@ThermaL-ty7bw]

is it normal to get empty emails from blizzard ? all it says it ''no subject'' and the complete email is just empty ... this just happened to me today , never happened before it's very weird

[@laurathomas9884]

Yay...Uncle Chris read us a night time book!!!

[@TJK10Able]

Liberate Hong Kong. The revolution of our times!

[@gabrielernandes5160]

*Everyone Liked That*

[@MeteorGarin]

What a great story Chris! Thank you for sharing it with us

[@handsomecaveman]

Truly Heartwarming. Stay safe, folks.

[@Soldruid]

This is what I needed in my life after reckful gone..

[@Starfals]

Swear, i wish this was a weekly show lol :P

[@Casomyro1983]

Good to see you, Sir! Stay healthy!

[@camimi7782]

Why am I loving this?

[@nagaempress]

Im seriously fangirling!!!! Cant wait to play this for my kiddos!!!!

[@captaindeadeye788]

Omg I need that book.

[@Ihatedsigningup]

We miss you, Chris. As good as they do to get us hyped, BlizzCon just isn't the same without you. I really hope you and your family is doing well. I'm happy to seed you in good health. Lok'tar ogar. Victory or death. Ishnu dal'dieb. Good fortune to your family.

[@WujekWojtek20]

Hi Chris, you are a very good person, I value your work very much. Greetings from Poland !

[@saycheesemusic]

Chris Metzen rocks! I loved having a brief convo with him at SD Comic Con at the Blizzard booth.

[@Krassus7101]

This is so adorably wholesome ❤

[@celaras]

I love it, thank you ❤

[@garenyo]

Thanks for the story Chris. 28 here.

[@novadselir1068]

So unbelievably soothing

[@amirhankursarin5024]

That was LEGENDARY! Make Horde great again, Warchief!

[@kevinbahr3812]

I like how the company can't take criticism and turns off comments on any video that does poorly

[@no_more_free_nicks]

"Don't you people have phones?"

[@Gamergrrl99]

WE MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

[@YargusKhan]

Chris Metzen amazing video I really enjoy watching and also listening to you again and like many other here say coud this be weekly show on the blizzard you tube page 😁? - Metzen ur the best mate - we all miss you ❤️👍

[@jGRite]

Would have been nice to have the images appear in the top left corner so he can read without showing us (easier to see a scan than the book from the camera). Can we get this animated by Winter?

[@erikaushamburg8279]

The artworks from Chris Metzen on Warcraft II - In combination with the storybook - Thats was really catching. Azeroth was a mystical place. The Warcraft movie was able to give an idea of that. Great Illustrator and Creative Mind!

[@ashz339]

Please get Chris to do more reading, this was amazinggggggg! I loved every moment of it.

[@jallaionize]

That was great. At first I thought he would act the voices out more distinctively but actually as this was a reading, it was perfect. That's how I would imagine a dad or mum reading a bedtime story for their kids. :)

[@tlonmaster]

Besides this being an awesome treat - look at that library! I want to live there!

[@maxymilion]

Nobody commented the Paladins T-shirt yet? Anyways, good to see you alive Chris!

[@TheOmniSora]

Pretty sure that's a D&D shirt lol
