If you saw this when you started playing WoW would you assume it was fake?

OP is trying to say this, I believe:

When you first started WoW, if the dracthyr was one of the choices in the character creation menu where you create a toon, with the class as evoker, would you think it was real?

As in, would you think it was actually a playable race/class that you could choose?

Or would you think that it was some kind of bug/fake/whatever.

Thank you for the follow up, but I still can’t grasp the reason for hitting that “create a new post” type of button.

I do like a good mystery, however :mag_right:

I mean, yes, but because back in 2004/2005, graphics weren’t nearly as advanced as these are?

me too.

even after multiple people have explained, i’m still confused.

i’m from an era when it was normal for game characters to look like:

…so a dragony thing doesn’t seem exactly bizarre enough to be fake.

At launch it didn’t have the goats. How did people react when there was an expansion announced with playable “Draenei” that all looked like WC3 Archimonde? (Since, at the time, Draenei only meant the ones who looked like WC3 Akama, i.e. Broken)

Or that Elves are going to join the Horde?

Once you’ve accepted those things there’s nothing particularly out there about playable dragon people.

And there are trolls, tauren, various elementals, ogres, and full fledged dragons in the Warcraft games and WoW, and Worgen (even if not playable yet) in Vanilla.

And as Blizzard can add whatever they want to their universe, it would not have been any stretch for a Dracthyr race to have appeared back then, they would have been more believable in Vanilla than the ‘new’ version of Draeni (both visually having changed from the ‘Broken’ version in WC3 that was called Draeni, and being alien goats from space)

No, it doesn’t look any stranger than the weird little goblin guys or the literal furries

One of the original races is just a big cow
