Vulpera doesn't fit WoW Lore.

Community General Discussion
1
I'm not sure if it has to do with them being way too similar to some nintendo character/race (can't remember their name), but the first time I played Vol'dun it was the first feeling I got from them: they felt really alien, like a copy&paste from another place that had nothing to do with WarCraft. After 2 months the feeling is still there.

So it saddens me to hear that they are supposed to be an allied race?
Who is with me in this feeling?

Nobody. Literally everything about the Vulpera fit with the Horde.

Slaves

Oppressed

Living in a harsh environment.

Teaming up with others so survive (horde)

Fighting back and regaining their independence...

Literally a band of misfits.

ANYTHING fits WoW Lore, because WoW Lore is a patchwork of everything ever created IRL given a Blizzard spin.

WoW has C'thulhu VS Greek gods that make viking gods and Egyptian gods, along with Indiana Jones and Rambo with Minotaurs smoking gigantic peace pipes and british werewolves fighting zombies that love mexican wrestling.

Also lots of aliens. Orc aliens, goat aliens, Demon aliens.

Azeroth uplifts animal races, Vulpera fit better than humans, or in your case undead humans. Since you are a decayed cursed titan construct.

I feel the same way. It’s likely just us two in this club judging by the first few responses.

Their story is fine but their aesthetic throws me off

Almost anything the writers choose to put in game fits, just look at the myriad of ideas that have been in game and are in game now.

Maybe people who have a problem with adding and innovation should just play Classic..

They are like a copy paste, a copy paste of goblin models which have everything to do with wow. Wow lore is whatever they want it to be with next to no limits. Saying vulpera dont fit the lore literally makes zero sense given the people who write the lore put them in the lore, and those people have far greater say of what "fits" the lore and what does not. In fact, they get paid to create the lore, so im going to go out on a limb and say the devs determination of what fits into the lore is far more valid than yours, mine, or anybody else on these forums who does not currently work at Blizzard

Wtb Luchador class. Gotta input fighting game commands ala Saban from FF3(6) to execute abilities.

Vulpera don't fit WoW lore, but clearly pandas do? It's a video game OP. If Blizzard wants, they can have us play unicorns as a race next expansion if they wanted to!
