plain and simple, wow needs anime-ish cat people. why? fun. i mean, we got glamorous elves and goats, why not just go all the way and have anime cat-people?
worried about folks going ‘uwu’ in chat? if you see any vulpera in trade, you know it’s too late.
just let it happen, let the weebs have an anime cat-people race, and give’em paladins too. we know that class is full of anime fans.
i’m 100% being legit, i think we should get a cat-people race. get all the nerdy subcultures in here. (or are weebs/otaku just… regular nerd-culture?)
edit:
here’s class suggestions for this theoretical anime-catfolk race:
warrior, hunter, mage, priest, monk, paladin, druid, rogue and dk (since everyone can be’em now)
i mean… i’d roll one, just so i could sit around being lazy and feel like i’m acting in-character.
edit 2: i’ve seen a lot of people just shoot-down this idea, but let me point out, lots of folks want to play as those new faun-people in ardenweald, so… keep that in mind folks. this theoretical race could be just as neat as them.
not against the saberon being part of the horde, but i honestly would like to see an anime-waifu/husbando-ish cat-people race. get a certain anime-lovin friend of mine playing WoW again, and maybe make some new weeb-bros.
If it ain’t that way for Worgen, Tauren, Pandaren-- or US– no reason it would be that way for our putative lion-folk.
Besides, Blizzard might put some effort into big cats, but not so much that they’d have to make that many new sets of armor. They can’t even be bothered with the poly count on old sets, what makes you think they’re going to go to work on a cup count?
