What???

Yeah, these isolated centaurs are weird as hell. It really feels like it was written by twitter people who have zero knowledge in how actual villages or nomadic people survive.

These are current year (2022) progressive centaur, they don’t need to make sense. If you question it then you’re clearly a bigot /s

The one quote from some of the Maruuk NPC’s “Show me your hands” could be to show that you approach unarmed, but then I remember what the greeting meant in Book of Eli. Some darker implications for the centaur there.
That’s what I heard but I may have misheard.
I heard they are ghey.

Man I am progressive and I can only state, these centaurs are written by people on reddit or twitter that don’t understand the lives of villages or nomadic people.
The things they say does not mesh to the lives they are living. It’s like someone from a upper suburb thinks being a nomad is about. Like their romantic views of it and not the harsh reality of it.

Something really is off, but it’s not about the centaurs.
Not possible according to the timeline. Dragon Isles went missing before the War of the Ancients, more than 10,000 years in the past. The centaur seen in Kalimdor are only 1,100 years old as a species.

You’re right… something does feel off about centaurs.
I mean, where is their stomach? In the human part or the horse part?
Something about water and gay frogs 
I think this is where the division in the player-base (and indeed, the devs as well) as simply become too apparent to ignore anymore.
Classic Warcraft was always about things being “savage” and “metal” or “badass”. It was perhaps a bit juvenile at times, but very much that kind of middle/high-school interpretation of what’s “cool”, and for better or worse, it resonated with people.
The current Blizzard does not seem to hold to those same sensibilities. Overwatch was obviously a wildly different kind of world and IP, which appeals to different tastes and fantasies. It focuses more on being “feel-good” and “positive”.
The issue if that those sensibilities that gave Overwatch its personality, have seemingly been forced into Warcraft. At times, it feels almost as though the developers hate Warcraft, or at least what it used to be, and are trying to make it into something else entirely.
This isn’t a case of “one approach is bad, and the other is good”.
The problem is that Warcraft found its success with one type of world and fantasy, and now it’s being changed into something those fans did not sign up for.
It’s like you’ve been painting your house, and you’ve been using blue paint. You get to another room, and obviously you need some more blue paint, so you go to the store and buy some blue paint. You get back, open the can up, and it’s red paint. There’s nothing wrong with red paint, but that’s not the color you’ve been painting with. If you wanted red paint, you would have bought red paint.

You know what line. You’re using “the study of anthropology” to argue against varying skin colors and female leaders.
Nobody is fooled.

Spoken like someone who is constantly online and never actually interacted with different cultures or people. I can place a safe bet you never left your small city.

I’d agree with this, and say it honestly detracts from the game.
Not saying I want WoW to go grimdark, but I think recent expansions tend to get a little sterile. Not even “noblebright”, just… sterile for the sake of sensibilities.
Give me some conflict. Give me some actual morally grey characters (Not Sylvanas)
