So, Playable Earthen

I will never understand the obsession people have with Dwarf women having beards.

I’ll try one of course, but I don’t predict any longevity.

The hair makes them not earthen dwarves

So now it’s just another weird dwarf reskin

Don’t care

Edit: Give me my Arakkoa and Ogres >:(

Dwarves are ok it’s just not the race I was expecting.
Ogres would’ve been the best option for horde and some elf for alliance since they like to pirate the BE.

I’m Indifferent at the moment. I need to actually do the story to see if I will form any kind of connection to the race.

It was developmental laziness since they just used existing dwarf skeletons with new skins on them.

Lame af if you ask me.

Could have given horde earthen as a dwarf like race and given alliance a different form of nightborne or vulpera etc.

Ideally though an entire brand new race like an upright 2 legged nerubian would have been more fitting as a neutral race, since they are in the expansion.

Maybe but race changeing is to much money even if i do like them ill probably just use the boost on a certain class don’t care about the allied armor sets.

I hope they have a unique titan forged facility as a home with super op/convenient racials that make you want to switch all your toons to earthen.

Alliance already has High-

No, no, I’m not going to get into that again.

If they have a another varient of stone form for their racial like darkiron maybe people will stop complaining about alliance having OP racials for mythic plus(even though cross faction means you can play whatever either way if youre that min max focused) since they’re neutral.

Other then that, i main alliance, another dwarf isnt that exciting, but new customizations are always nice to have.

I find it absolutely embarrassing, trying to sell a third dwarf recolor as a new race.

The collapse of the faction divide cannot come soon enough. It’s because of that neither side can have anything nice without the other having a meltdown.

Yup. All races should have been neutral a long time ago. Legion was a really nice opportunity, but here we are, still segregating everything by race of all things. Yikes.

I mean I understand racial tensions and rivalry but folks here have driven it straight into the ground that it’s not even remotely interesting or fun.

Man the Horde is still paying for having unbalanced racials like 12 years ago.

I don’t give a rancid rat’s [REDACTED] about racials. anything beyond fun lore flavoring. Honestly Blizzard could go in and completely remove all racials from the game and I’d be happier for it.

Ok, but its not just racials I am referring to the Horde still lacking.

Lack of impact on story, leaders, etc.

We’re the saturday morning cartoon villains that kids point and laugh at. That’s all the Horde will ever be.

I just think it would make for a neat little cultural detail that would be uniquely dwarven. The dwarf obsession with beards is well established of course, but exclusive to men thus far. In our real world culture, facial hair on women is typically regarded as gross, or wrong, or even freakish. So a fantasy race that celebrates it would just be cool.
