TAIL DEBATE
This is the most requested feature players have wanted throughout the years
The original model for females in Cataclysm were actually going to receive tails but the Devs ran out of time.
8.2.5 Had given female worgen a tail bone where in the previous model, they did not.
For quite some time in the Shadowlands beta, worgen had a hole exactly were a tail could be placed.
Christie Golden wrote Genn with a tail in Before the Storm but later said it was a mistake. At the time, she is just a writer for WoW. Writers are given the context of what the Dev team wants and it is their job to write the narrative.
Void/Blood Elves are getting dark skin options which is actually against lore written per Blizzard. (For the record, I actually love these new skin tones despite the lore breaking!) With elves getting these new tones, this nullifies the argument, “Worgen never had tails to begin with.” (Elves never had dark skin either but here we are!) There is nothing in actual Warcraft lore which states a worgen cannot have a tail. It’s not lore breaking if there is no lore to begin with.
Blizzard has stated they wanted Shadowlands customization to make people feel included and let people have options .
We are being introduced to new types of things in Shadowlands with both character customization options and storylines that we have NEVER seen before. Is having a tail option really that far fetched considering?
Blizzard had drawn worgen with tails multiple times. It is clear people think that a tail belongs on their model!
“Werewolves don’t have tails!” Elder Scrolls and Werewolf the Apocalypse say hello!
Tails make the model look complete, balanced.
Tail customization could be added to it like the Draenei
Tail options would help with the customization disparity among other races
If players do not want a tail, they do not have to have one! It has no effect on how they play the game.
Should lore people still be a stickler in all this, all Blizzard would need to say that “in wake of the Destruction of the Scythe of Elune, some worgen honed in on their inner wolf, sprouting a tail in result.”
Just leaving that here.
Ushi:
Its okay. They like to conveniently forget about my first post on this thread with a million pictures of them without tails in concept and early gameplay
Don’t mind me. I’ll see myself out before someone has an aneurysm again.
Nah, knowing you, you’ll continue to lurk in this thread as you always have been and wait for someone to mass report with your Discord buddies like you openly admitted to earlier in this thread. You just don’t like the fact that your arguments have been countered tenfold. So please, spare us your condescending attitude, you have no actual constructive criticism or argument here.
In before she sends her little Discord friends after me for this reply. LUL
