Theyâre from Wrath

To be fair, I know that Pandaren existed long before, but I still believe the main reason they became playable was the success of Kung Fu Panda.
That being said, itâs still by far a better addition than DeviantArt furry foxes.

NO, In fact, because of Kung Fu Panda, it ruined the reason for playing MoP. NO ONE TOOK IT SERIOUSLY, it was underrated, and even the Jade Forest lore, the best zone lore ever made in WoW history, didnât help.
The mistake Mezten made in trying to include the Pandaren stemmed from a joke reference; it wasnât even a joke, it was something he drew for his daughter back in the Warcraft 3 days, and it was more of a Japanese-style panda than a Chinese one. Itâs truly ridiculous.
However, their lore, zones, and everything they represent has given JRPGs what they are: GREAT.
Thatâs why talking about the Pandaren is the same as talking about the Tauren, and in one expansion, they gave that same care to all the content that a patch didnât do for the Vulvera, and they were the wrong target for the Horde.

If you mean tuskar they existed since war3 pretty sure as creeps in northrend
We want ogres not these disgusting harronir
They should have written it so that, if anyone had to get them at all, it would be the Alliance. That would probably have especially pleased a lot of Worgen players, even though Worgen are many times better than Vulpera, despite having had their teeth methodically pulled in recent years.
The Horde could then have gotten their natural opponents in the form of Sethrak, who aesthetically fit the Horde much better.
I secretly hope that the devs will eventually stick a splinter group into the Alliance anyway. Maybe with a small boat in Stormwind Harbor. That would, on one hand, bring back some of the⌠very particular players that this race attracts to the blue side and on the other hand, it would give me a reason to start PvP again.

Oh neat they were
Did you not do the Voldun Campaign? The Horde and Vulpera ally with the Sethrak and take out the Faithless (the evil Sethrak).
Just had to go and make it weird againâŚ
Or you could⌠just go pvp?

But the Eredar ARE just red, fel infused Draenei. Frankly I think most allied races SHOULD just be consolidated into customization options.
Regular ogres have typically been the same height as tauren.
See â classic WoW model (you see one as early as the barrens guarding a goblin)
See â Kovork Kostume
See â Carved Ogre Idol & Magical Ogre Idol
Theyâve just always had varying sizes. Sometimes they ARE giants, sometimes not.
How soon we forget GIANT Thrall and other named characters in expansions past.

Superior in transmog ability compared to trolls but not particularly better than the rest in any way. I think they look dumb, and certainly wonât make one. Also theyâre very out of left field, I donât really care about Nelfs but they feel incredibly shoe-horned into the story.
Most likely, it would have been the same size as the Kul Tiran models. I remember back then how many players were convinced they created the Kul Tirans solely to later turn them into ogres. There were even overlaps between the two models, so it wouldnât have taken much work.
But no, instead theyâd rather shove dozens of Alliance reskins and squeaky Chihuahuas in form of furry foxes into the Horde.
The only Alliance reskin that actually made sense was the Zandalari, because it wasnât just an obvious cheap recolor like in the other cases, but the rest⌠
Unfortunately, I donât see an end to this trendâŚ
Blizzard has a trend of ignoring long standing fan favorite races in favor of out of left field weirdo picks.
Sometimes it works out. Draenei. Love me some draenei, maybe my favorite race. But I donât think many people were clambering to play WC3 draenei or as an Eredar back in the day.
Thatâs about it though. As much as I like MoP, I have 0 Pandaren. Dracthyr are widely panned to this day like four years after they were added. The allied races are mostly not worth talking about.
Ah, good. Iâve seen them be larger so I was concerned, but tauren size should be generally fine for questing.
I made a thread asking if they wanted an expansion where new races were relevant to the story or not or just inserted like how mag har were with bfa.
I answer i got qas majority they wanted them to be part of the xpacs story, not a side addition with barely any emphasis.
Thereâs a part 1 and part 2 megathread for ogres. People have been BEGGING for Ogres for years seeing as they were always part of the Horde. Doesnât help that weâve been told that they were considered for new playable races multiple times over the years.
And considering how few people I think actually use these forums, a couple hundred likes is quite a lot.

A minuteâs thought would prove nobody asking for ogres will actually play one for more than a week.

Youâve clearly never played a male Tauren for a prolonged period of time. Architecture that kills you (even in Horde cities), doors you cannot fit through (even built by Horde races), items you cannot click on (even in Horde areas).
Anybody whoâs played a male Tauren for, oh, a good ten years or so, knows that theyâre miserable to play.
And Ogres would be worse.
