I see every other race and culture represented in the game besides Latinos. We even got a full expansion of Mists of Pandaria that represented the Chinese influenced cultures.
Battle for Azeroth expanded on the Troll lore in Zandalar which is inspired by African religious beliefs and middle eastern architecture such as the Sumerian ziggurats and the Vol’dun desert.
The foundation of WoW lore is on European mythology like Norse, Greek, Celtic, and the Great Britain empire.
Why is the Latino culture being dismissed?

That’s funny. Where would you say Indian culture is represented then, OP?

Isn’t a lot of troll imagery based on the Aztecs? Don’t get much more Latino than that. Unless you mean more Spanish golden age? That I don’t think I’ve seen but it would be pretty cool. I’m picturing lots of lace.

The dance some trolls do is straight up ripped from Brazilian dancing.

I’m from latin america and I’m definitely not interested in seeing my culture displayed in wow.

Here we go again.
Other trolls are seen to have more of an Aztec or Mayan influence especially with the architecture. The architecture in Zandalar also falls into this. People get hung up on the “Zandalar Forever” which makes them think of Black Panther - which was set in a fake African country btw.

Finally, something I agree with Yesuna on. Apparently less than ten cultures is every single culture on Earth except for Latino.

Not really. The Aztecs were not even close to the Zandalar Trolls. The entire quest line dealt with African inspired beliefs such as the Loa and blood magic.
The Spanish pirate days were kind of shown by the Kul’tirans, but they made it more like English. I guess it was a missed opportunity yet again.

I am latin american, I don’t care if the culture here isn’t represented TBH, I have never been a representation seeker . Most likely would end up being something Mexican that doesn’t actually represent south america at all, so why would I care anyway?
Draenei are actually largely indian inspired!. Though yes, I get the joke :P.

I mean the facial feature of them does look Indian and they do have an elephant racial mount. For some reason I’d imagined them to be Eastern European because of the accent.
Just stop replying. Skinwalker is a known troll.
