Normally I’d agree but then I’d be afraid we’d get something akin to Vulpera.

I’d have played Mechagnomes if they were actually gnome cyborgs; fully mechanical.

It’s this half-mech look I can’t stand.

Poor mechagnomes and vulpera.

That’s okay. I like you both just the way you are.

Edit: I’m still holding out for those grump old turtle people.

I kinda like the aug look. It’s got this original Deus Ex but trashy and also a bit mad max if Tolken wrote it kind of feel to it.

The entirety of the Alliance playerbase would probably weep if for once we were given a high quality race like this.

I’m being dramatic, but it’s also true.

Alliance would rage if Horde get another pint-sized race and they get a normal size one

To be honest i’m surprised they didn’t get modular racials like Zandalari. Would of been a good chance to have them swap out limbs for different things. I don’t mind them, but I really wish they had far more customizations.

They shouldn’t be called Mechagnomes. They should be called junker gnomes.

The biggest issue with the Mechagnomes is the lack of creative writing behind them. Take their counterparts as an example: we learn a great deal about the Vulpera in Voldun as we quest through there and they eventually become welcomed allies into the Horde.

By contrast, Mechagnomes get a, “My dad can’t tell me what to do” storyline that cumulatively, takes about ten minutes to tell. And does Erazmin get a proper introduction to other Alliance leadership? No. Instead, Mekkatorque gets written out of the story and placed at the end of a cleared dungeon while Erazmin, the one who LED the Rustbolt Rebellion completely cedes all power.
