I would downvote this trite in a second if I could. Your opinion sucks.

Yea that was kinda the first thing I noticed, Iā€™m gonna have to spend some time in the barbershop trying to find a better face. It just looks soā€¦ creepy my lips being this pronounced.

Unfortunately, youā€™re going to discover that thereā€™s really only one face. The only difference between them are the lines around the mouth and above the eyes.

Male Goblin rework might be the worst of all the new models. Completely ruined the sleazy, old man vibe I had.

Luckily I always have a google mog on so I donā€™t have to worry about the awkwardly designed eyes. But these damn lips still bother the hell out of me. Worst comes to worse I can always just go with the least obnoxious face since I think I see at least one that isnā€™t AS bad since the upper lip is thinner. That or just race change, which is always an option.

Without creating a new thread I want to just say.

WHY NOT OLD FACE OPTIONS @ CHARACTER CREATION?

Why? More faces = more love. New goblin heads, new dog heads - bring back all the old heads just for the options factor!

Not sure about other people, but while everyone was clamoring on about new models for us, I was steadily against it just because I remember when the WoD models came out there were a lot of issues, with either clipping, placement or just things looking goofy. I think there should still be an option to use old models specifically for this reason, but at the same time it might be an ego thing.

Iā€™ve spent a not insignificant amount of gold in the barber shop trying to recapture the spirit of my Goblin and am still not quite satisfied.

This rework is definitely going to take some time to get used to. :confused:

Thereā€™s only one head mesh, because extra work rigging is apparently too hard for Blizzard. It took public outcry after the initial update announcement to even get them to add the pathetic illusion of variety we have now with textures.

They also completely screwed up the UV mapping for both genders of both races for a lot of gear.

Does a race change include a name change? I donā€™t like the new Goblin models either, but my goblinā€™s name is somewhat goblin related.

Nah thatā€™s extra, though a bundle idea would be nice since I understand a lot of people try to use theme names. I liked being a goblin though and if I can help it Iā€™d rather not change, so hopefully theres a face I can at least tolerate. I only quickly skimmed through it all when I logged on to check out the new patch.

With the male goblin models the clipping, amongst everything else having to do with their headsā€¦is just terrible.

My goblin, being a rogue was using the leather helm, eye of blackhand, black eyepatch.

Well with this helm on, anytime my goblin turns his headā€¦like in the little bouts of idle movements from your character just standing stillā€¦ ā€¦the strap of this eyepatch clips HEAVILY into my goblinā€™s eyebrow-line and forehead, sinking all but entirely into his head to the point it only looks like i have this black blob over his eye.

Ontop of this, most helms, while using the ponytail and mutton chops (sideburns) hairstyle optionā€¦ ā€¦my sideburns stick completely through the helm/face-mask i have on, not concealed at all by these helms as they should be.

Things are just a total messā€¦ ā€¦nothing was wrong with the model for the males to begin with in comparison to the other race models in my personal opinionā€¦ ā€¦and now theyā€™re just a total mess that has all but robbed the characters created to embody the race of their feeling of personality and ā€œselfā€ they were created to be.

Good luck. I couldnā€™t find one that was decent. Try playing with ear options.

Rizzlixā€™s face looks better due to the thinner upper lip I mentioned before, but Iā€™ll have to mess around with it. If not hopefully we get some cool allied races in the last patch (assuming we do).

Maybe weā€™ll get a thin-lipped goblin AR.

Everyones excited to be cute. Vomit. The OG goblin models and voices were so much better. Only the female goblins got any benefit out of the cata goblin models and now they all look like they have the same exact jaw lines. Eugh.

Thereā€™s always gonna be the ā€œboth negativity and criticism are toxicā€ people. I can hope they at least update to fix the proportions since trying to get the spirit of the old faces back will probably be too much work.

Iā€™m loving the new Goblin Models. I made a new Goblin just because of them. Then again, I never play male toons so your millage may vary.

Itā€™s baffling though why they just didnā€™t up the polygon count without messing with the actual features of their face. When I first saw the change on a reddit post of a guy with a before and after male goblin I just had to laugh at it because it just looks so terrible.
