Thank you for the handwritten clues delivered by CTOnews.com netizens! CTOnews.com November 11 news, Blizzard artistic director Sam Weiss Didier (Samwise Didier), who has been working for 32 years, announced his imminent retirement through the X platform in the early hours of this morning Beijing time.

Today is a big day for me, and I would like to share this news with you. I will retire from my beloved Blizzard Entertainment, and today will be my last day here.

…… Blizzard has never been just a job to me. I joined the company in 1991 and it immediately became my second home. I found that I had such a "family" that I never knew! I grew up here and learned almost all the knowledge of art.

I learned how to use a computer (until then, I only knew the Atari 2600 and Nintendo), how to use Photoshop, how to create user interfaces, how to make thousands of buttons, how to create 3D models of my works of art, how to texture and animate them, and even let them fire fireballs or lasers. I saw my own art lifelike! I even joined Blizzard's first band and, most importantly, I was involved in the production of the greatest game in the world.

Didier has worked on almost every major game at Blizzard, including Diablo 4 and Watchman 2, from Black Thorn and the lost Viking to StarCraft II.

CTOnews.com Note: Didier is also known for his passion for pandas, which is why he created the character Panda Man in World of Warcraft. In addition, he is the lead singer of the Class 60 Elite Taureen Chiefs made up of Blizzard employees.

Blizzard's president also commented on Didier's tweet, "Thank you very much for what you have done for Blizzard!" your talent has helped Blizzard build an iconic artistic style, and I know that many of our artists have learned a lot from you over the years. Thank you for everything you've done for them, for players and artists around the world. Congratulations on your retirement! "
