How would you feel about an Ogre race?

You do know there are rogues, mages, locks, shamans and even shocker I have one garrison dk ogres. They not just one races lock to warriors.

For the record a two headed ogre druid would be my favorite class. I would probably never playa anther one ever. Just for a feral hyena with two heads.

I want all the faction-aligned races that aren’t currently playable, so:

  • Wildhammer Dwarves
  • Stonemaul Ogres
  • High Elves
  • Forest Trolls
  • Jinyu
  • Hozen

etc.

Ogre race? Sure, why not. Is there a program where we can peruse the vitals of each of the Ogre runners so we can figure out which one is most likely to come in first? And how about a spreadsheet so we can figure the odds before placing our bets on which one we think will win?

First off, I do want ogres as a playable race, I’d love to have a 2 headed ogre mage. However I don’t think we’ll see them as an allied race.
Every allied race so far has been closely related to a player race. So far they have brought in variations of NE, BE, Orcs, Dwarves, Draenei and Tauren, with Trolls and Humans coming next.
That leaves Forsaken, Goblin, Worgen and Gnomes.
Best guess for Goblins and Gnomes at this point appears to be Volpura and Junkers.
That leave some variation of Forsaken and Worgen as unknowns.
Ogres are more likely to be brought in as an actual full blown new race, not an “allied” race, at least based on current trends.
Of course I could be all wrong on Blizzard’s plans. Maybe somehow the Forsaken will bring the ogres in as their allied race, stranger things have happened.

I still remember when Pandaren first came to Goldshire…

91

I find nothing aesthetically appealing about ogres, therefore I’d never play one.

92

an ugly big dumb race that lives in stone… oh boy!

The horde has enough ugly… I’m glad the alliance for once are getting a race that looks less than stellar.

Stonemaul Clan or bust.

Blizzard needs to treat Allied Races as a way to get long-requested races that are currently aligned to the Horde and the Alliance so that we can finally play as the different races we’ve recruited.

Taunka, Hozen, Ogres for the Horde.

High Elves, Jinyu, Wildhammer Dwarves for the Alliance.

If they try letting the AU prolapse back into the main continuity like they did for the Mag’har orcs, I’m going to hate it.

Not a fan but if others wants them, fine, I’m ok with it.
I mostly prefer smaller sized races.
Still hoping for vulperas :smirk:

97

I know people want them but I have zero interest in playing one. Besides, we’ve seen so many evil ogres that I’m used to them and my reflex would be to attack. :wink:

98

There is an intelligence problem. I think a Murloc is probably smarter than an Ogre.

99

Ogres are the only race I think HAS to be added to this game. Horde side of course.

I’m not against any races being added, my only concern is OP racials and size advantage of models.

I’m guessing at least 5x more people would play vulpera, and that ogres would cost more to implement. Doesn’t make much sense to me.

Yeah, they pair well with goblins.

Lmfao. XD

Ogres for the Horde, Vrykrul (sp) for the Alliance.

if they give it to alliance i would play it.

I dont see Vykrul joining alliance, nor horde for that matter. The Northrend Vykrul consider the humans, and basically everyone, as abominations and lesser beings. The Legion Vykrul have some respect, mostly those that have died and serve Odyn, but generally agree with the Northrend view that everyone else is lesser. That and Odyn is unlikely to ever be a leader under someone else’s flag. They would have to make a new offset group for it to work.
