Frankly the community can’t tell a legitimate complaint from an illegitimate one. The response is always lol complaining about nothing. Unless it’s PvP and one class is broken.
For every complaint you’d see that you don’t get a special Paladin mount for your Forsaken paladin, there’d be 50 - 100 more mature people just enjoying that they can be that character they want. And maybe the also want a cool special mount but that’s in the area of bells/whistles, just like Dracthyr having armour. It’d be nice if they did but it’s cool to have them even if they must go without.
You were from a generation which a recolor of the classic mount was fine and no one batted an eye. Course I’ve been personally fighting for an updated model or a Paladin Hawkstrider.
Initially I didn’t want all class for all races either but Blizzard overruled that so I had to either unsub or go with the flow. I picked “go with the flow.”
So, now that that was settled, I just want my Moonwalkers and HMT Sunwalker. Probably a gnomadin too. I love paladins.
As much as I want more paladins, because they are far and away my favourite class, I do want them to put in the leg work. I’ve said time and again that I hate the idea of them using the Tyr’s Guard as a blanket explanation for all races being paladins. That would be so lazy and disappointing. Especially since so many races have such obvious foundations for some proper lore just bubbling under the surface. They just need to drop in some little lore nuggets, like they did towards the end of WLK for tauren paladins.
And here’s the cool thing: They’re starting to give earnable cats bears and owls so if you don’t like your stock model you can do the Legion stuff and get cooler ones.
They’re working on it. They’ve already stated that they’re opening up most race and class combos.
They’ve already done of of the most controversial ones with Draenei Warlocks.
They’re working in it. It takes time.
The 3 classes left are Pallies, Shammies and Druids. All of which need more customization work than other classes. Pallies get racial class themed mounts. Shammies get totems and Druids get their forms.
I’d rather them take their time and do it right than rush out a half baked version because a few people are impatient.
