Blizzard pulled what seemed like a grisly stunt nearly 3 years ago by giving away a Diablo 4 gaming PC "infused with real human blood" as part of community blood drive – but the guy who won the computer doesn't think it was a "stunt" at all. To him, a streamer with the username Storms888, it's a miracle.
Storms888 tells Nathan Grayson at Aftermath in a new interview that "the PC is virtually perfect." It doesn't even seem to have stained his carpet at all. It's just like any other gaming computer with an Nvidia 4090 graphics card and Intel 14900k processor, only Blizzard "added red blood cells inside of it."
Its owner doesn't know who those cells originally belonged to, since "there was a donor slip that specifically said it was a confirmed blood sample/donation, but that was all." In any case, Blizzard gave Storms888 an extra blood vial in the event he needed to add some more, but the bottle of unidentified human blood "did leak a ton though."
"I had to put the bottle in a separate bag," Storms888 bemoans. He still thinks a little dot of blood here or there is a small price to pay for a computer that otherwise "genuinely has been a life-changing experience, and it's opened up so many doors for me professionally with streaming."
"I don't want to change any aspect of it for the novelty factor – would love to give this to my future kids some day," Storms888 says. For his sake, I hope they aren't universal donors.
