    As far as I know, in Warcraft 3
    There was a reference to Wirt, namely his 2 legs in the game itself, one was a wooden prosthesis with a boot
    And the second could be obtained from the butcher, where they clearly hint at Diablo
    A very nice thing is that Blizzards of those years loved to make references to their own games, as was the case with the space marines in Warcraft 3 and the space orc, all this is also a reference to Starcraft

    As it was starting to get revealed that Albrecht needed to be terrorized for Diablo's plans, it was my first assumption that he was made to watch as Wirt was getting munched on. I guess it just isn't explicitly stated that he saw it, but I'm gonna choose to believe that's how it went down.

    serves him right for selling crap to me for astronomical prices, while i save the world and he is just laughing at me bringing him gold over and over again from literal hell. he might look like a vietnam veteran, but I AM the REAL veteran during the end game of diablo 1. ive slain more monsters than any human soul should. and he continues to refuse to give actual value to me while getting rich.
    If anything, wirts story is the story about a greedy bastard that chokes on his own gold. sometimes i get the three-socket-version of his leg, put large diamonds into it, and drop it somewhere. just to mock his death. and that part of him must endure demons forever. while of course being a little bit richer once again

    why do you assume that Wirt is 10 if he has interest in Gillian?
    He speaks of taking her away if he were older but, he clearly isn't 10! I would say he is probably in his early 20s while Gillian may be in her mid-30s.
    He's old enough to have "contacts" and understand money. It would also be in very poor taste for minors portrayed to be in the game.
