Which Race From Another MMO Would You Add To WoW

I’ll take Skaven, Beastmen probably the Gors over Minotaurs cause Tauren. Lizardmen(all of them yes) add some Warhammer Ogres to be playable with Warcraft Ogres and you made it.

Gosh, I know right? One of the reasons I love my Viera so much in FF14 is that he’s tall and slim with narrow shoulders, but Blizz seems to want to give so many of their races huge bulky appearances. Drives me nuts. :frowning:

For instance, I love the Night Elves/Nightborne, but I wish they didn’t look like such carrots. HUGE shoulders, and everything else narrow. I like just a nice lean build from top to bottom. :frowning:

They were already cowards once about the blood/high elf male model, bulking them up before BC even launched (and then still made homophobic jokes for 2-3 expacs anyway)

“From the darkling woods they come,
On cloven hoof and twisted claw
The Beastmen they are called, these ones;
Less than human, yet also something more.”

We need more evil or morally questionable races in wow anyway since everyone wants to sing songs and hold hands.

Because they would have burned down the tree just to be funny.

The design of most male models in WoW is really weird. It’s like the designers grew up with old Heracles movies and never moved along.

I would go for the draken from Wild star myself.

Yeh, exactly. And to be clear, that’s okay, but it would be nice to have more choice for those of us who DON’T want to look like that. That goes for the girls as well. I am sure the people who play female characters would like more options too. If they want to keep racial silhouettes they could always do what Wildstar did. Take each race and give em a few body types to choose from.

But yeh, it was one of the reasons I was really hoping for Sethrak, and why I love the Sylvar. I love that slim, athletic look. :slight_smile:

The male default pose is pretty bad already.

It’s not because Blizzard can’t, it’s because they don’t want change the graphic style of wow. WoW style is cartoon, this other one you’re comparing is realist style.

You must understant that graphic quality and graphic style are 2 different things. Even if wow had a most rencent engine, the game style would ramains the same but with more polished textures and animations more fluid.

A game can have the best graphical quality of nowdays and have a cartoon style. Like Genshin Impact.

Yes, nothing against Schwarzenegger types. The problem is that in WoW even Mozart would be played by Arnie.

This game needs tentacles. The Torguta or Twi’lek from SWTOR:

Since Blizzard only seems capable of constipated, angry, and angry constipated, I wouldn’t hold out hope.

Argonians, Khajiit, Aurin, Sylvari… all good choices.

I’d even throw in some of the races from Warhammer Online. Dark Elves and Chaos.

D&D Online; warforged, drow.

But there’s a lot of races WoW could pull from in their own universe.

I’d even say that cartoon style is having a comeback. :slight_smile:

From the WoW universe? Literally dozens.
