Why did we get fat humans?

Yeah that is the reason and not because this xpac is heavily focused on an area that is populated by Kul Tiran Humans and Zandalari trolls... Seriously people.

There was 0 indication that Kul Tirans looked any different from normal humans up until Blizzard needed to fill the third Allied Race slot for Alliance. Every previous Tiran used the same human model as everyone else, even pre-transformation good b- I mean, worgen.
The devs didn't have a budget line for a live model, so they had to use themselves for reference.

Oh no, an allied race isn't thin and "sexy", call the police.

I'm actually glad we aren't getting another super thin allied race. Enough with the elves please.

Right? It's like people don't realize they can still keep playing their elves and whatnot.

You guys are fancy pants. Give us the fat humans and take the damn elves!


Lok'tar Ogar, my man! I am with you on this. Who the heck cares if they are fat. If they have some cool abilities, I'm down.

Will people complain about their size like they did mine?
Pretty damn sure they will be a minority still, highly likely a very large population will be druids and nothing else.

Which is totally fine, lots of folks do prefer their elves. The population of each race shouldn't be a measure of success.

I'm grateful for the variety though, speaking as someone who actually really likes Pandaren as well.

idk why people upset, male kul'tiran look awesome
females are hopefully a work in progress
I do hope that the women get a little more hourglass, and some muscle definition. That would make the look more physically powerful.

Blizz's biggest offense on kul'tiran humans is that they can't be paladins. I really wanted to see Kingpin-type paladins running around, especially protection ones.
Haven't seen this confirmed, but the KT seem to have kind of a Dark & Witchy thing going on... it seems unlikely to me that KTs will be Paladins.

There are people butt hurt over Allied Races in general,
Well... to be honest, Void Elves and Lightforged were pretty trash Allied Races. I'm still excited for KTs though.

The Dark Iron's and the Ma'gar Orcs look like their NPC counterparts.
I'm gonna disagree. The Dark Irons, at least, have a LOT more options and look a LOT better than their NPC counterparts.

So? They did it so they could give alliance KT humans that actually looked unique.

BE were white NE before BC.
Drainai were the broken before BC.
NB, VE, HMT, and LFD didn't exist before Legion.

Also you are missing that there are still normal looking KT, they are just not the playable versions. Much like forsaken include elves, gnomes, aboms, liches, and others that are not playable.
The poor corpse is projecting again.

How is the most popular allied race a "trash race"? You may not like their lore, but (imo) they are the best looking and have the best racials.

I mean are LFD any worse the HMT? Are VE worse then NB?

1) If they're the best looking, it's only because they're evil-twins of blood elves.
2) VE are worse than Nightborne (who look bloody ugly) because their background story & lore has all the meat and solidity of a soap bubble. Nightborne have some SOLID history.

...and I'd argue that LFD are worse than HMT, because while Lightforging is... kind of... a thing in Argus, it doesn't feel like a "every day race thing" it feels like a "super saiyan Draenei" thing... which isn't an "Allied Race" thing, it's (as at least one other poster suggested) a quest which high level Paladins should aspire to, not level 20 smurfs.

Anyways. Off topic. I've said what I said.

I asked one of my warlock friends if he could drop a feast and he summoned a Kul Tiras human.

Ain't even gonna disagree. :)

I won't say I disagree because this is about subjective opinion. But GD, they need more OPTIONS. Especially HM, NB, and LF.

Void Elves got a ton of Options but nothing I personally found interesting. So that was on me.
If there's not a McDonald's on Kul Tirus I'll be very disappointed.
