Male Nightborne Problems - No comment?

Community General Discussion

Edit: I mean no disrespect to the people over at Blizzard who designed this model. I am just disappointed in how this issue hasn’t been addressed.

For the past year, Nightborne fans and players have continuously begged Blizzard to rework the Nightborne Male model due to how it doesn’t resemble the (Male) Nightborne in Suramar, nor does it even seem like a finished model.

Sadly, despite all our complaints and requests, we have yet to recieve any real response to this issue. So I ask, how long will it be until this finally is addressed?! As someone who was super excited to play a Nightborne, It has been an enormous letdown to see the problem over the unsatisfactory “final” version of my favorite race left completely unaddressed.

If Blizzard can create the Zandalari and Kul Tirans, then I know they are completely capable of making Nightborne as perfect as can be.

Please Blizzard, please fix the Nightborne. It would mean so much to many of us.

I would love if the Nightborne had more options and if they were more polished in general. Honestly it feels like they just didn’t want to spend much time on the older allied races and just wanted to push them out as quickly as possible for the preorder.

I do think your character looks cool. But personally, I struggle to play a Nightborne Warrior since many of the plate sets do not look good on a Nightborne at all.

I wish Nightborne were a little more muscular, and looked more like this:

I wish the nightborne looked more like the actual nightborne. I was one of many people psyched to get them as a playable race and then we got character models that looked nothing at all like what they were supposed to. I didn’t have any interest in playing them after that.

this is the nightborne you were just talking to lol. yeah i think that guy looks cool. i haven’t tried any class but warlock so far and the sets he has available to him right now look good. i haven’t tried plate or anything but i get what you’re saying.

Agreed. Before I made my Void Elf I consider making a Nightborn Mage, however I din’t like the limited customize options I had for Nightborn Males… :sweat_smile:
Not to mention that their best looking armor, showing your cool body Tattoo is worn only by NPC characters… Our heritage armor as cool as it looks, covers everything. :thinking:

I really hope in the future they address this like they done slowly with other race…as time passes. :crossed_fingers::grin:

yes! the npcs are amazing! I love their snooty faces, their Egyptian beard “jewelry”, the mana hair! What we got is a nelf abomination. X[

They warned me I should stop making this face at people or it would freeze that way

The new toy turned me into one of the Nightborne bosses today. I almost cried. Why can’t my Nightborne look like that? :sob:

Welcome to what the worgen have been begging for 5+ years.

13

And they’re getting their new models that are long overdue. Why can’t we at least be acknowledged?

The model has a lot of issues but honestly I’d be happy if they just added 3-4 more non-ugly face options and a few more hairstyles. As it stands right now there are exactly 1 face and 2 hairstyles I can stomach using.

I was soooo excited to play the Nightborne! Ground out all the rep, got into the character creation screen… wtf and just noped right out.

Then I hear all the noise about Zandalari Paladins and just cringe. Terrible idea. Saw a few wandering around in BG’s as I’m leveling my monk… hmmm, pretty cool. Go to the character creation screen…

My Zandi Pally just dinged 45 yesterday. Absolutely love him.

The difference is that the Worgen were acknowledged and we were told the new models were in development.

Nightborne? What’s that?

I hope you know I’m not serious. Nightborne absolutely should get another art pass sometime in the future, and I’d love to hear some comment on the matter from the developers themselves.

I know. But I used your joke to emphasize another point. I’m sorry I didn’t make that clear.
