How many of you are not too happy with the new allied race?
Do the devs not read the forum requests?!
Horde have been begging for Ogre’s for what seems like an eternity!
Why not give the Alliance Tuskarr’s or Tortollan’s?
C’mon Blizz! Listen to your playerbase! You guys had a great opportunity to make a lot of people happy and you guys shot out a Doozie!

The Horde gets to steal an Alliance race.
Alliance gets no equivalent.
We win.

Just kind of meh. I don’t care about them and likely won’t create one.
That said I have no issue with them as a new playable race they just don’t appeal to me.

How are the Horde stealing anything?
I play Horde, but I can literally go and make a Dwarf right now, ez pz.
Blizz should have picked something more interesting, or made the new Dwarf race exclusive to the Horde. Neutral is boring.
Neutral means they’re going to be morally boring, but if they were Horde exclusive they could have written them into interesting directions.

Uh, excuse me, NO thank you.
Jinyu/Ankoan, Sethrak, Ethereals, Naga, sure…

Ya, try putting on leg armor on a Naga…
Or even Mechagnomes! Just having fun. I agree about the dwarves. A bit odd of a choice.

I’m not not happy about them. I’m just very bored by them. They’re just more dwarves. They didn’t even make them visually distinct by giving them the stone beards that we’ve seen on most previous earthen. They’re apparently just a little taller than regular dwarves. That’s just a dwarf using Stoneform! So like, what even is the point? Dwarves aren’t bottom of the list but they’re far from one of the most popular races.

I still want my true counterpart. Gilblins. Vulpera are a brand new race. So far all the allied races are genetic offshoots of existing races and vulpera do not fit the theme.
If they drop any new races into the mix then they should not possess the label of “allied” race.

Makes sense we’ll encounter earthen underground.

Your Dwarf isn’t welcome on Horde lands.
The Earthen are.
We win.

Finally pay back for Void Elves.

The Blueberries aren’t a fair trade as the Alliance never wanted them. They wanted the High Elves.
Blizzard just wants to keep giving the Alliance Ls when it comes to their requests.

I think I read somewhere the new allied race will have some kind of instant flight form and fly like Goldorak
It’s still incredible that a lot of you can’t put 2 + 2 together…
They went with this because it’s easy. No need to resize any equipment or armor as the dwarf sizes are already done.
As much as I want ogre, that’s a new skeleton, new animations and they’d have to go through their entire data base to resize all the armor to fit on the new Ogre skeleton. This is why Drac’thyr only have so much visible armor and why ARs were created in the first place.

If it was already done then the Dark Iron Heritage Set wouldn’t stab through their legs every time they move them.
Worst part is we got the next 3 expansions announced which pretty much confirms no ogres no tinkers
