i’m not even gonna go into a long-winded explination of ‘whys’ and justifications… aside from the fact the horde got a variant of dwarves, and the alliance did’nt get anything unique.
we got the whole undermine stuff coming up, right? why not give the alliance some goblins that’re aligned with them? heck, you could just make’em neutral like the earthen! most goblins are supposed to be neutral to the faction-war, why not make some of’em playable, blizzard?

Alliance already has an equivalent gag race that people play as a joke.

honestly, i’ll take whatever. as long as it’s goblin. horde keeps getting unique stuff, or equivalent to alliance stuff… alliance deserves the same!
I legit wanted Gilgoblins over Vulpera.
Gilgoblins easily have more lore.
Will always, always be disappointed that Vulpera exist.
Ocean Goblins > A race with no lore, basically furry-bait.
One of the reasons I play Alliance more often these days.
I just think the Alliance races are better, with a select few on the Horde.

Undermine Goblins. Give them a bit more of a New York mobster theme with pinstripe suits, gold teeth, pencil mustache options and the ladies can lean more into the flapper theme.

The Alliance is going to get pseudo-trolls with the Haranir.

The Alliance has had gnomes since 2004. You don’t need goblins, too.

No.
Notice how for every 10-20 threads asking for another Horde race to be copy-pasted onto the Alliance, e.g. neutral goblins, holy orcs, holy undead, Grimtotem tauren, blood trolls, or Bilge Rat vulpera, there’s roughly one asking for the opposite with something like leper gnomes or Alterac humans on the Horde.

I mean, if they would just unlock Factions entirely we could play goblins. After all, we had Goblin Alliance quest givers in Classic-Wrath:

not the same. goblins are better. they’ve got CARS.
…also their tech in-general is more funny/interesting to me.
…also goblin just in-general have more character/personality to them imo.

I always thought Goblins should’ve been neutral. Even in the books they work with both sides since money talks for them. Some Goblins are stead fast Horde supporters but not many from what I remember. I’ve always have been partial to the zombie Goblins.

Horde and alliance are now supposed to be neutral so just roll a goblin if that’s what you want and ask Blizz to make SW and other alliance territories accessible to horde.

everytime i try to do that, with ideas like a neutral 3rd faction that you opt-in/out of, i get shouted down by other players.
would make more sense if they just made some of them neutral like the earthen, pandaren, and dracthyr, and save themselves the trouble.

I guess that could work, too. Idk, just seems like if they’re going to get rid of the factions that they’d just remove all the barriers already.
So maybe the factions getting along is only temporary, after all. Idk.
