Nowadays, PC video games that need to use CDs for installation are rare, but many years ago it was common. One of those cases was World of Warcraft, since when Blizzard’s MMORPG began its journey it required using a few discs to be able to enter the world of Azeroth. Specifically, it came accompanied by a total of four CDs.
Today you could say that its only use is as a coaster, because in order to enjoy the game you no longer need a CD, since it can be downloaded digitally from the Battle.net launcher. However, what makes them so special after 20 years is because they hide a secret
This is how he discovered it a Reddit user after publishing an image showing that These four CDs must be placed in a certain way so that the center holes overlap. In this way, you can see that a ring decorated with runes is created, which also includes the installation number of each disc, until it forms a titan ring.
However, in the only edition that it is possible to verify something like this is in the standard World of Warcraft, the most basic of all. The reason is because the collectors’ edition included a fifth CD to access the soundtrack, but the fact why it is impossible to form this ring with them is because the drawing that appears on each disc is completely different.
Despite everything, the true meaning of the runes or the ring itself has never been known. This is probably just a simple curiosity, nothing more, since Blizzard has never mentioned anything about it. Even so, we must not forget that the next expansion, The War Within, has to do precisely with the Titans, so it would be a great opportunity to offer more details about this topic, also coinciding with the 20th anniversary of World of Warcraft and these CDs.
