Samwise Didier was responsible for Blizzard’s distinctive in-house art style.
Didier’s contributions to Blizzard were numerous.
I joined the company in 1991 and it immediately became my second home.
I found out I had a family that I didn’t even know I had!
I grew up there.
I learned almost everything I know about art there.
I got to see my art come to life!
Hell, I even joined my first band at Blizzard.
Thank you Blizzard, for everything."
“You are the mighty heart of the Storm.
Always will be.”
Blizzard president Mike Ybarra thanked Didier for his contributions to the studio over the years.
“Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for Blizzard, Sammy!”
Thanks for what you did for them, and for gamers and artists everywhere.
Congrats on your retirement!"
“You have always been an inspiration to me and countless others,” Gregory said.
“May your next adventure be nothing short of righteous.”
Didier did leave “the mighty Blizzard Entertainment” with some words of advice in his retirement post.
“Blizzard family, always draw big shoulder pads,” he said.
