Vulpera Discussion Megathread (Part 1)

I was okay with the idea of Junker gnomes when I thought they were robots like Mimiron. However, when they were revealed at Blizzcon I was quick to digging my heels. Was not what I had in mind.

it wasnā€™t what anyone had in mind <.< did you hear how silent the room got when they brought them up?

barely anyone caredā€¦not saying theyā€™re BADā€¦but blizzard really dropped the ball on that one, just sayin <.<

Unfortunately, some of these allied race decisions might have been made well in advance since they apparently plan some of this out way ahead of time. Iā€™m already loath to level my Alliance character to 120 just to do another lousy rep grind. What was given isnā€™t exactly a good motivator.

I just refer to the interview I linked in here a little while backā€¦that pairs up the Vulpera and Sethrak idiology perfectly

I really hope they announce something soon, maybe in the Q&A on the 14th? Need to get the hype wagon reignited!!

I posted a question on their thread specifically asking if there were any new Allied Races to be announced.

It also works with the fish people too. Didnā€™t it say ugly and fierce or just fierce? Iā€™m just remembering the interview off the top of my head.

I wouldnā€™t call Sethrek (especially Vorriks) as ugly or fierce. Theyā€™re adorable with boopable faces! Meanwhile Vorrik comes off as calm and crafty. Fierce doesnā€™t feel like the right word to describe him.

An opinion: ā€œI donā€™t like that thing, and I think they shouldnā€™t give us that thing.ā€

Trolling: ā€œI know you guys want that thing, and it not only makes me all tingly to think you wonā€™t get it, but I have fun rubbing your noses in it!ā€

Ergo: You are a trollā€¦and and a childish one at that.

should go like my question :smiley: I have 15 likes on it so far xD asking about the release of ARā€¦maybe if we get enough people wanting to know it as well, it will actually be asked? :smiley:

That would be good! for the players and for the game itself!

Even more so after the wave of discontent that is present in the players!
more than 14K of people demonstrating their dislike for BfA in the guide, is something serious for the gameā€™s image!

Something needs to be done to regain the interest and confidence of the players!

And to begin releasing information or even intentions of what races the Devs are interested in seeing available, it would be good to keep the hype, which is gradually shifting to discouragement.

If anything has chance to save the good name of warcraft, itā€™s the allied races, but everything about them needs to be sown and watered to flourish in importance to the players.
This complete silence can make things frozen!

Tossed in my like on them! Hopefully weā€™ll hear some about it this time around.

the silence is like leaving a growing flower to wither and wilt.

Toss ya a like myself if only to get greater chance of any question related to Allied Races answered. Itā€™s pretty much the only feature that still has me going for BFA at this point.

The more races I know about the more I can plan out a goal for future patches.

i may have liked your post on a few of my alts.

ā€¦and by a few, i mean 10 or so.

Iā€™m honestly in the same boatā€¦the expansion is really boring to me, in comparison to Legion. I loved played legion and right now, having an AR Iā€™m excited to play as would make me completely invested again.

As much as I hate leveling now, if Sethrak are released as an ARā€¦I would GLADLY level one from 20! In a heartbeat! I would race change my classes and throw more money at them! D:

lol I appreciate your enthusiasm! <3

I know that feeling, Iā€™d be overjoyed to level a vulpera from -120.

Volā€™dun incursion was up this evening, with the Vulpera for a Day quest available. Nishaā€™s quest text now mentions a bit about being them free merchants, which I believe was added into the build after the PTR.

Do note that could be towards Freedom against the Alliance or just being a Free Sales merchant which are what Goblins are as well.

Iā€™ve been leveling alts and trying new classes/specs to reignite some passion for WoW but a new allied race I could really get into would do HUGE wonders for me! Vulpera are just that - different enough for unique characters, class and lore interpretations and really cute on top!

I can imagine why a Vulpera would appreciate the Horde and feel loyalty, gratitude and fly the red banner. I can get into a Horde character with them as a vehicle which is something Iā€™ve been struggling with to date.

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee some Vulpera news at the Q&A and just in general! If our hopes get squashed tomorrow I think all the wind will be completely out of my sails :frowning:

I think itā€™s too soon for them to say that the vulpera are coming without the inclusion of the alliance side for an AR to be included. Which we have very little working with anyone as of right now that leans towards an AR besides the Sethrakā€¦and even then, itā€™s very minimal.

Iā€™d be happy with them just saying that weā€™ll know in the near future or things will be brought to light. The Q&A wonā€™t answer a question like that head-onā€¦though honestly, I feel you Kit, I really do. The sethrak are what would make me enjoy the game again, hands down, and I really want them to be the other AR released with the Vulperaā€¦but itā€™s too soon to say anything because the focus is solely on this raid and the faction war.

If anything, I think things will start going in a direction we want after the raid has been released and the story progresses past that.
