Back in Cata at least the problem is that all faces shared the same geometry (only textures differed) which heavily limited how different face options could be. That might be less of a problem today.
Indeed. They already made some excellent changes in BfA - female Worgen set up right with the new options really bring back a lot of that ferocity and such to their appearance.
Hell, I changed my fury warrior one to that striped pattern, the face with the dark on top of the snout, and the red eyes, and she looks vicious.
It doesnt match the art style of the game. Just because its a game thats cartoon style doesnt mean it has to be cute. The redditor did a better job and maintaining the cartoon look and making it vicious in 20 minutes.
The model the normal Gnolls and Hogger suck. They look like furry fanart.
The models with headgear and armor look pretty good though, it fixes and hides the flaws I have with the art style and really makes them look much better.
There’s really only two adjustments they need to make. Narrow the eyes slightly to handle the odd bug-eye look, and get rid of the droopy tongue/jaw for a more menacing ‘growl’ look.
Gonna be honest and say I don’t see any difference or improvement here other then the person giving him the face of a Charr and putting his shoulder guard on his right shoulder for some weird reason.
