As a Draenei fan, of course.

To be blunt, when I first heard that Draenei were in wow, I was actually shocked that they were not broken, instead they created this overly sexy version of Draenei you could tell that the current Draenei we have were just created for sex appeal on Alliance sorry if that's blunt, but they literally changed the original lore and retconned it a bit to make room for a sexy version of Draenei let's be honest about this.

The Draenei females anyway. The males are still fat and ugly.


the alliance is in dire need of more nasty bois.

I support this since BC and till the day I die
63
Hoping to see you guys get some love as well, I know these folk have some rich lore.
64
I also remember hearing they'd be playable back when BC was announced thinking we'd get to play as Boogeymen from WC3 and going "Yo that sounds AWESOME.".

Then I saw them and went "Wait........that's not the Draenei. What the heck?".
65
Should have gotten Broken instead of Lightforged IMO.
66
Missed opportunity :(

LFD are waaaaay too similar to regular draenei

Broken could have had rogues!
67
While it may seem I am trolling, but I assure you my question is genuine but why must there even be a female option? Why can't races that show zero females in game become playable as only males? After all this is a Fantasy based game why does the male/female dichotomy even have to come into play?

There might not need to be a female option, not sure though. I feel like in this case, there would be female broken, though.

I read that “12 DAYS LATER” in the spongebob french narrator voice…

Anyway this is probably as big a missed opportunity as High Elves. We literally had a whole army of them on Argus, which we later just randomly and inexplicably ditched. It’s almost like Blizzard just wanted to cut the cord, and it’s baffling that people were so quiet about it.

Broken with Void customization would have been lit.

the Krokuul/broken possess a unique model too, they would have been a much better allied race than lightforged, who would have been better off as a barbershop option

Posted this over on a Mok’nathal discussion thread which ended up with me suggesting ideas for the Broken as the opposite to their inclusion.

Thought it’d be great to post here as well to drum up some additional discussion.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
"Perhaps there could be some further exploration of Rexxar.
Then with the divide between Sylvanas and Saurfang, Rexxar could side with Saurfang as I would think he’d be more concerned with honor and how the horde stood under Thrall as those were the ideals he helped found it under.
Finding a place among the horde and Saurfang needing additional support, Rexxar could head to Outland to bring the clan back to the horde where they’d be better equipped to survive. Additionally, Geya’rah could be present and make a comment about how there were Mok’nathal on her world as well, they occasionally had dealings with the clan, and she feels bad about how they were left behind to perish with a dying world/timeline.

Geya and Rexxar then request help to return to AU Draenor with the champion, previously there was no reason to do so. The artifact is used once again, the clan is found somewhere on Draenor, doing what they can to survive as the world continues to die, perhaps also continuing some of the story with the Lightbound.

These Mok’nathal are rescued as well.
So the two clans band together to better serve their people and future within the horde.

Perhaps some customization options hinting at both origins.

Maybe this could also all play into a story alongside the Alliance absorbing the Lightbound into the Lightforged and Yrel taking a place as a recurring character. Learning more of their view point, perhaps learning it’s not quite as fanatical from the way they see it. Additional numbers help take on the Void or Wrath expansion 2.0

As an opposite to the Mok’nathal being added, we could have Velen approach Anduin and express his feelings on having once again left Hatuun and his people stranded behind on another dying world.
He gets Anduin’s blessing that they’d be welcome in the alliance and sets off with some of the Lightforged and Romuul aboard the Vindicaar to Argus.
Perhaps fight some void beings or Man’ari remnants then approach Hatuun with the proposal. Hatuun being surprised they weren’t left once again.
Could even have a questline into Outland to bring aboard some Broken from there featuring other skin options if more than just the Krokuul appearance was desired.

Could even have Umbric tag along and have some quest bits where you help free some Krokuul from being void-addled or something to that effect."

we MOST CERTAINLY should have gotten these guys, and lightforged should have been a barbershop quest…

There are broken druids in outland btw.

Im guessing female broken would also use the tauren skeleton but slimmer?

75

When I first Heard Draenei were gonna be playable before BC, I assumed we were gonna get Boogeyman People.
Was All Like “Yo, that’s Sick!”.

…Then the retcons happened.
Remember looking at the Draenei on the main page before release and then going “…What is that? That’s not a Draenei.”.

I would still love a Broken or Lost One.

76

There’s druids? Interesting.

They could, but I’d imagine they’d go with the draenei rig.
I figured that was why they updated to it for the broken of Argus back in Legion.
I still find it odd we use their rep for the void elves.

I keep waiting for Velen to go back and get them.
Maybe they could even bring in the groups from Outland as additional customization options sorta like Mag’har were done.

Wonder if they’d use that…could make for some interesting forms if they used ones from Argus or Outland…the argussian panthers are kinda neat.
Talbuk for travel?
