⚓ Kul Tiran PC is inconsistent with Kul Tirans in lore

Not as of yet on the PTR. Models arent finished though so I suppose theres a slim hope more get added before they’re finished.

Those models already exist though.

The Nightborne would like to have a word with you.

So then there is a slim chance we still might get the skinny bodies? Don’t get me wrong I been waiting for the KTs for a long time being big bodied person myself, but it is nice to offer choices.

It was already confirmed in a Q&A that the big Kul Tiran are genetically identical to normal humans, no Drust theories here please.

This should be the bare minimum for all races. But, somehow it’s 2019, and Blizz is still giving us 2004 level character customization.

TEN CHARACTERS

Let’s be honest about aesthetics.

The player population of Horde is overwhelming blood elf because most people just don’t want to play ugly characters. Alliance are overwhelmingly Human and Night Elf for the same reason.

Blizzard sent us to a continent full of Kultirans who look exactly like humans, except for less than 10% that appear to have some sort of dietary problem. Blizzard then said “we’re adding Kul’tirans as a race, but only the fat ones, even though barely any Kul’tirans are fat”.

That’s stupid. And some Alliance players are mad because Blizzard is forcing them to have only the ugliest people out of an entire population. And the “play a human instead” argument falls short of recognizing that Kultirans have different class selections and that almost the whole continent is not fat.

Should heavy set characters be an option? Of course. But they should not be the “only option” or even the default option given the current population of KulTiras. It’s really that simple.

My own opinion is that Kul Tirans should have two options, the Stocky one and the scrawny one. Besides the island(s) they live, this is what distinguishes them from plain old humans. Kul Tirans are not really a “race” as such; they are human.

The nightborne arent perfect but they’re relatively in line with visuals as shown in game.

I support! This all makes a lot of sense to do.

Kul Tirans are shown to be big, scrawny, or average.

Anything less than that is a failure to allow player character Kul Tirans stay in visual theme with the whole continent.

I agree, though so far only Kul Tirans have shown actual body type variation as a reality of the game world, and intentionally

If Kul Tirans dont get body options to look like the characters Blizzard deliberately made to look like average sized humans, then we shouldn’t hope for body sizes for any other race, ever.

I find it amusing how WoW is probably the only game where the players have to write a whole thesis only to ask for something as simple as more customization options.

Also, I can’t bring myself to understand why every time someone asks for something cool added to the game, we get an army of salty people trying to argue against it.

Especially when I’m making the case for something to be added, not taken away or replaced.

Undead are best race. But I still want to make this case.

Blizzard showed us what Kul Tirans look like. The PCs should look like it too.

I do agree’d that they should give the races more customization, however I disagree’d about giving one race more body options than the other races, your arguments of other npcs having different body types is due to Blizzard wanting the world to be more lively, the better solution would be to give the normal humans the KT accent instead, you mention orc having postures, this is only to the male orcs, and I think the better counter-part to it would be to give the female draeneis the option of having longer tails, yes blizzard did spent alot of time creating this model, if they were to add a normal human model to it just because people have issues playing fat people, then all effort went into the model would be a waste, just like if they were to make high elves an allied race, the void elves would be a waste which is why they’re making an attempt to just give the void elves’ High elf customization, at the end I’m not saying no, and I do think they could add the thin humans, but I if they did, they also have to give one of the horde races body-type options as well for say let the trolls be bulky or goblins be fat.

that’s because in this case, he’s asking to give normal human bodies to the only fat race that isn’t animal-based like the pandarens, I’d be fine with blizzard adding thin humans as long as one of the horde races get’s similar treatment, I think if people just want the accent, just give the normal humans the KT accent option instead.
