It's time to unlock all classes for every race

[Foxhound-fenris]

But MUH LORE.

lmao.

Tauren outlaw rogue named Bullion.
Not his real name. His fellow pirates nicknamed him that after he panicked during a battle and loaded a cannon with gold coins when he ran out of cannonballs. Now he has to work off his debt before he can go free.

@Mitharu-stormrage

not at all serious

And yet…

@Mitharu-stormrage

/s (sort of)

@Mitharu-stormrage

Yes they all have their own cultures, but not all members of the race will adhere to that.

And Blizz said back in Legion that our player characters DO adhere to that. The special snowflake NPC characters are rare and meant to be so. Cultural identity matters.

@Astrien-emerald-dream

you literally don’t deserve to have a conversation card

Yup, I’m out after that bs from him.

It was a joke, sort of. I mean if you’re saying a race can’t do a thing (which you did) that would make you racist if you were an NPC in the game, but here we’re just discussing it as fans of the game. If you choose to take a joke so seriously, that is your choice. But I find your argument, and blizzard’s, lacking.

@Ralanthel-thrall

I would like some RPG aspects which still exist in this already too shallow MMORPG, like distinct cultures / races, to actually remain just a little relevant.

So no. I disagree 100%. Certain restrictions make for better immersion and more fun. Feel free to disagree because it is just my personal opinion.

Nah this is the one argument I can’t debate, as it’s just us having a different opinion. For us, the only decider is who more people agree with. Respect man <3

humans are a species separate from wow characters

brain explosion

in warcraft, there are actual physical differences between races

WOAH

AND CULTURAL

I gave my opinion and then exactly what Blizz said. Someone else gives their and opinion and you say…

@Mitharu-stormrage

Hypocritical much?

shakes head

I’m muting this thread. Your comments are nonsensical.

How so? Look lore is open to interpretation, that is the point. What you said and what he said were two very different things. “They cant because NPCs are special because blizzard says so”. Not only is that not even an original thought, it’s one I find hilarously silly. Why should NPCs be special? And are you implying that the person who spends the majority of the game being referred to as “champion” “savior” “hero” etc. is just, what, some average Joe? No.

What he said was that he feels the current restrictions and reason are, in his opinion, a better fit. And that’s it, that’s just his opinion and his preference. He knows my argument, and he doesn’t say it’s invalid, he just doesn’t agree. Thats fine. people do that.

Mute the thread if you wish, you didn’t contribute anything of your own anyways.

[Missunknown-saurfang (Missunknown)]

I soooooo badly want VE DHs!!! Cmon blizz, make it happen

[Hellasha-alleria (Hellasha)]

No, it’s not time.

Lore is still important. Some races simply can not be some classes. One example, it is physically impossible for a void elf to be a paladin.

[Dove-haomarush]

I would argue that there are some class and race combinations that feel perfectly possible but do not exist for some lore reasons that feel a little outdated. Worgen and goblin monks, Draenei rogue, and a wider variation of demon hunters. Possibly night elf Paladins as well after the covenant story. It is possible.

[Vaeana-area-52 (Vaeana)]

Hmmmmm, no it’s not.

[Armada-caelestrasz]

@Celebrate-whitemane

remove alans shaman

Who’s Alan? Maybe he likes his shaman!

[Hellasha-alleria (Hellasha)]

Culture is also an important factor for classes. Goblins are too greedy to be monks, Worgen have a bit of a rage issue. The Draenei culture that the pc is apart of and those needed to be rogues don’t mix. Illidan found that only the elves could survive the ritual. (Further more he was very much against teaching other races his secrets.)

[Dove-haomarush]

Orcs have rage issues and they are monks. Goblins could find value in patience. Draenei culture is changing and we seeing more and more Draenei wanting to take action before tragedy strikes them again. Even in their starting area you can see that. Draenei from WoD who were technically from the past encompasses different views on how and when is best to take action. Illidan didn’t train other demon hunters because his pride kept him from doing so. He didn’t even like high elves. Orcs, Draenei, and the Tauren have all shown great potential in the game for being capable of absorbing fel energies and not completely losing themselves. It’s possible I believe.

Take it a step further for the Worgen monk… their whole story is about gaining control over themselves. Training as a monk would be incredible way to strengthen Pandaren bonds with the worgen.

I’m just at this point where I’m saying some views are outdated and that our races should be growing with our story and their faction.

[Missunknown-saurfang (Missunknown)]

You know what blizzard need to do?
Dedicate a couple of brand new servers and have them as ‘anything gos’, so only on those few/limited servers people can make VE pallies, BE druids, Tauren rogues, NE locks, gnome Dhs etc etc etc
None of it is canon/lore and you can’t play with any of the canon/lore abiding servers. It is strictly there for fun xD Oh and transmog can be fully unrestricted too for the lolz

Gotta admit that is a pretty good idea yes? People who don’t care about lore can have fun, people who do care about lore still have it intact, seems like a total win win to me

[Autai-emerald-dream]

Anarchy mode?

[Kaurmine-area-52]

I endorse this idea

[Pebrock-kelthuzad]

At this point I’m starting to cringe whenever someone suggests this idea. Just stop.

[Klowdywilde-area-52 (Klowdywilde)]

@Mitharu-stormrage

@Rhielle-sentinels

@Mitharu-stormrage

The whole point is race does not matter…

Races still have their uniqueness based off of their lore and culture. Give everyone everything and that’s gone. The only thing people will cry about is meta for racials.

Also: don’t be ridiculous with the other part of your statement.

It was ridiculous and not at all serious, but it does make the point that race shouldn’t matter for class. Yes they all have their own cultures, but not all members of the race will adhere to that. There ARE ones who dont, because thats how people work.

Yes, and without a doubt way more RP in the RPG.

[Henitai-amanthul (Henitai)]

Sure, let’s homogenize the races to the point that they no longer have any unique culture to them. Just cause what, some people don’t care about lore and racial flavour? No thank you.

[Sunzsu-alexstrasza]

Yeah, “muh lore.”

Can we not ruin it even further?
