100% it’s awesome that horde is getting access to a dwarven race. Sadly, the point of contention most people have, is it’s now the 3rd dwarven race for alliance.
It’s equivalent to them making a cool primal looking Tauren and making it faction agnostic. Alliance players would be like “heck yeah! Finally can be an awesome moo-cow!” And horde players would be like “really? another Tauren? We don’t want it.”
Still holding out hope that Ethereals will be playable in Midnight. I will be firmly in middle age by then.
Earthen dances
They could’ve been an appearance update for both the dwarve races we have currently. No reason for them to exist beside a new “neutral” race which we technically have 2 of already.
Don’t really dig the bearded chips, and it seems like a really weird choice of having any type of dwarf in the horde.
you can definitely have no crystals
edit: you can also select no beard for the women/body2
There is an… odor.
I agree, gotta love those metallic hair colours!
I hated it until I saw the Male Earthen Dance! I’m sold, for a half second I thought about leveling and maining one for War Within, but the 11 years I have with this warlock-lady will not allow it.
I will be willing to make a Earthen Dwarf if they can be death knights.
They can indeed be death knights.
I think they are fun. And I adore their metallic hair. That really wasn’t shown well at Blizzcon. It makes sense now.
I’m going to make myself a mini jailer, just for kicks and giggles. 
Oh there are mini jailers popping up. Go nuts!
