I have 5 level 60s on CS Alliance and can’t create new characters. I can however transfer for free characters from LF where I was before.
Yea, because that’s not how most people approach this game or operate off of. The sweaty players are a minority, they are not driving the trends.
Yes. We’ve known this for a long time. Historically the least played faction is generally Horde for most of wow’s lifetime. Some people think it’s the races just not being popular, as the factions started to close gaps when Blood Elves were released.
For me, I hate Tauren and Trolls, and not really a fan of Orcs. I play almost exclusively undead characters because I like their look, cast animations, voice lines, and lore. I like the way my undead characters look. I prefer that. I also play nearly exclusively dwarves on Alliance because I hate humans and night elves, and not as big a fan of gnomes.
I remember when goblins were released and the racials were rebalanced, Goblin was bis for shadow priest dps in PVE because of the haste. Lots of people race swapped and I was no exception. I lasted 1 month before swapping back, because despite it being technically better I just didn’t enjoy that my character was a Goblin. That’s how most players operate.
