Mechagnome Love Thread šŸ„°

Iā€™m all for the monocle. But Coaxial is technically correct. The very best kind of correct. Dweezle had his eyes replaced with high definition ocular implants and he loves them. He canā€™t wait to see the next generation to upgrade them.

A sniper lives or dies by his optics.

Cool, a sister of mine would be grateful for your answers Rosie and Coaxial and Anodeā€™s clarification.

Finally unlocked them last night. I actually bailed on BFA early with the intention of coming back when they were (obviously) going to be available but life kinda got in the way. Itā€™s worth starting over though, even if itā€™s a little late, heh. Playing one just feels right.

Congratulations and welcome to mechanization!

This is often how I feel as well.

I can really get into this toon. Itā€™s grand!

Nobody likes Mechagnomes. They tooka spot that rightfully should have gone to the Sethrak. Instead we got build-a-bear versions of the cabbage patch kids rejects.

I love my little cyber zombie!

Its almost as if some people were horribly wrong about mechagnome fans not existing.

Nobody likes Mechagnomes. They tooka spot that rightfully should have gone to the Sethrak. Instead we got build-a-bear versions of the cabbage patch kids rejects.

I think we should have gotten gilgoblins instead. Mechagnomes are pretty much in line with how ARs have been since their inception. Iā€™d argue they are more unique then most allied races. Gilgoblins would balance them nicely.

PS: Yes. I am still around. I may not respond that often but I regularly read comments in this thread.

I think Leper Gnomes would have been fun for the Horde. Iā€™d certainly make one!

Story would be pretty basic. Mechagnomes and Gnomes make a push to retake Gnomeregan. Some Leper Gnomes escape through a transporter, with the help from a few named Leper Gnomes. Forsaken can be involved in preventing them from devolving into toxic goo.

This again? To repeat a point weā€™ve said several times.

Under no circumstances were the Sethrak ever going to be the gnome AR.

AR are based off existing skeletons. You are living in a self created matrix if you believe otherwise.

Edit: also your blanket statement is objectively wrong. If even one person likes Mechagnomes as they are now you would be wrong. I will testify under oath that I enjoy mechagnomes.

We are going to be hearing this for a long time, but we know how to dispel claims like these.

Itā€™s true we have codified procedures to deal with this recurring annoyance.

Nonsense.

I like mechagnomes, disproving your hypothesis.

Sethrak?

Theyā€™re entirely setup to go Hordeā€¦

Anyone who truly believed they were ever on the table for an Alliance AR were deluding themselves.

And I would love it if we got Sethrak later.

Our Death knights are among the best! Have you met Locutus?

They always have been.

As much as I like the Vulpera Iā€™d have LOVED getting the Kelfin!

I agree that getting leper gnomes could done that way and probably work well enough.

And thusā€¦

Unfortunately, Locutus is currently under maintenance mode as well as the other three Death Knights.

The Pilot is currently unhappy with the state of Death Knights.

Sorry, allow me to clarify. When i say ā€œnobodyā€ā€¦ I mean such a smaller percentage of the population actually likes mechagnomes, despite having a fantastic racial that it doesnā€™t register. Itā€™s the least played race, DESPITE the racial! They are ugly, they are boring and they are unwanted scraps of metal.

IN other words you exist but not enough to matter.

Then let me ask another question. Why does it matter? Blizzard doesnā€™t choose races based on popularity. There is already many niche races in the game only played by a fraction of the population such as pandas, goblins and dwarves. Every allied race except for void elves maybe can be considered niche too as they are only played by like under 3% of the population. If blizzard catered to all popular requests this would be world of elfcraft.

Thatā€™s a shame.

I havenā€™t had an opportunity yet to make much use of my death knights end game of late.

What changed?

Yet, here you are.

If weā€™re not enough to matter why waste your time?

I think your processor could use an upgrade. Have you considered mechanization?

It is amusing when people use the argument that population is a concernā€¦

The majority of players, by a large margin, are blood elf, human, night elf and void elf.

Everyone else is at best estimated at 10% or less.

I feel the same with LF D, with HM T, with Void Elves to a certain extent. All too similar and imo bring nothing to the table. Vulpera were fresh and new, despite me not caring for them. We got the Warcraft equivalent of a race with Body integrity disorder. Literally hacking off limbs because they deem them inferior. Its gross. Itā€™s boring. Gnomes were never interesting to begin with. They were always the joke race.

Wasting development time on another joke race instead of something interesting like Warcrafts first playable reptilian race, one that had an interesting backstory tied to loas and gods. A loa we actually saved! We saw face to face was a slap in the face.
