now if you can also backport the Retail customization options for the races, that’d be stellar
Disgusting. That is all.
Before the hate - this looks good and makes me realize why some of their visuals were a bit jarring. I like these changes!
agree, made them look bad.
please just remove skyborn druid
The darker tone of the druid forms look better. However the bear needs work, it’s just odd.
You forgot moonkins again, other than that looks good.
Thank you! What do moonkins look like?
Hmm, ok so you couldn’t bring any customizations to Blood or Void Elves in retail, but could clearly bring them for a premium race in forever? Got it
stilll looks horrible
Ooo loving the new fur details and darker shading on the druid forms.
Can you please also update the druid form mouths so they close, don’t wanna go around like O: the whole time (although I’m certain it is useful for catching bugs in cat form for snacks)
The druid forms looked better before, why did you make them ugly? This is a huge step backwards, you should trust your team more than these Classic Andy professional forum sweats.
SO much better. Unbelievable how much of an impact this has. This gives me faith.
I think the new druid forms look SOOOO much better! The colors stand out to me more but not in a loud bright neon way.
I’m still in the camp where I wish they did something other than a cross-faction elf race but I really appreciate this news and the dedication to player feedback; if pandora’s box is open I want everything to be as aesthetically cohesive as possible and I’m SO using the original SD classic graphics for that.
Thank you!!
For SD models to be delayed for 2027 is good news in my mind, that means they are aware they need to actually relearn how to model 3d characters the old school way. And not just making existent retail models low poly or low res.
Interesting how it seems like the lighting on the models had such an impact. It does look more “SD” now.
Looking forward to rolling a Skyborne! Now if we could just get an RP-PVP ruleset…
2027? Wow. What are these production times LOL?
The more muted colors on the forms are appreciated - should stand out a bit less, now.
Now, about the EXTREMELY BRIGHT BLUE elves themselves…

Neat
I like that the WoWF devs are listening to these issues.
Corporate production times. Everything has to go through a pipeline. Processes upon processes.
