I think when most people say “new” race, they mean unique appearance or in game distinction more than skeleton/animation. People would call Vulpera “new” because they are completely distinct in game and don’t look like any other race, even though they share the goblin skeleton and animations.

lol no, Kul Tirans were your Alliance “compromise race” just like Void Elves are another “compromise race”
I’m sure Horde will get a “Compromise race” someday.
Indeed, but fel corrupts the body primarily, the mind as a side effect of excessive use. The void can break the will of dragons, what do you think it would do to the mind of a baby?

They must do some development for void elves. Maybe they will create more from high elves or blood elves filth traitors!
I also though this. How could a void elf child grow with its sanity intact? Lol
They have a lot of work from now hahaha
Kul’tiran are just human, of course. Remember that we are Alliance after all!

So you just don’t like small races. Gotcha.
I don’t see that ever happening, tbh. Alliance isn’t ever going to get something that supreme, imagine the cries from Horde players. Many Horde already threatened to quit the game if they had to betray Sylvanas so Blizzard added the first ever option in questing.
Me!@ I am leaving.

There is, they were Blood Elves, that were bored of the Sunwell and didn’t think it was edgy enough, so they got Void Powers. Which didn’t actually give them real powers like DK’s or Demon Hunters, it just made them Void fashion concious.
That’s their lore.
They introduce to us the lore behind the curse of flesh.
We are dealing with old gods and the deepest Azeroth’s mythology from now.
Any part of this puzzle is important to discover the whole picture.

Tirassians killed any chance of that. They’re enormous because they have Drust blood, and they were just a sect of vrykul druids.
People complaining about this post with “What do you want? More elves?” is a weird complaint since
A. No, I don’t
B. That’s the same complaint I’m making just toward a different race
C. If you’re going to release a reskin, why not provide one of the races that are higher in popularity
D. To the guy saying it’s a bad metric because it’s zero sum - no. If you’re going to slow release the reskins, then just go in order of what has the best chance of adoption. Goblin/Worgen would have been great, and if they’d reskinned Pandas to have less of an animated walk/attack I think people would have loved it.
Yeah, the allied races for the Alliance are exceedingly lame. They pick one of the least played, least popular races and make THAT an allied race? Really? Lazy, lazy, lazy.

Wow, I need to race change to gnome. We need more small people.
Pretty sure the plan from the get go was to get AR races to all the “parent” races. That means at some point gnomes get one.
What AR tied to the expansion should the Alliance have gotten instead of mechagnomes?

They should have been High Elves.
Exactly, and it should have been Sethrak or High Elves or Wildhammer Dwarves, you know, races a good amount of players would actually play. As for LFD, at least Draenei have a much larger population that the little gremlins you call gnomes.
Then there could have actually been a high elf present to shoot those thrift store ballistas at orgrimmar?

To turn that back around, wouldn’t gilgoblins have made more sense for goblins then? Because that is much more similar to the gnome/mechagnome relationship than vulpera, which are pretty unique. Heck, it’s even related to the newer zone.

The Vulps aren’t connected to a core race. Could have been Sethek (sp?)
Both make sense? Not seeing what the issue is. Both are people the Horde are allied/working with.
Vulps use the goblin model. That is the connection.
