The Book Argument is the same, they printed those copies with Genn having a tail. Their issue. Hearthstone artwork, again tails. Even Board game, Genn had a tail. His argument was ‘the book writer who has no sway over lore, especially playable race lore has decided no tails’. I proved that incorrect, and went with other arguments as well.
Maybe apply that to yourself? “Rules for thee but not for me” Rhielle.
When artists go to design stuff they make lots of designs. Concept art that gets rejected/not used doesn’t become canon. Worgen don’t have tails, they have never had tails. Source is Blizzard. It was mentioned during one of the blizzcon q&as.
Again, no sources linked. I guess I’ll go your route. “Again, even serious anti-Worgen tail debaters don’t use this failed argument” It’s already been proven they have tails.
Okay, “Rules for thee but not for me” Rhielle.
Well, it’s in the books too.
No source for this, but want more sources they do have tails in WoW and WoW related media?
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/worgen-tails-confirmed/558400 It’s actually on the current models, just not currently being used for a visual tail yet.
You do know they use the skeleton for other creatures right? That doesn’t mean Worgen have tails. The lone line written in error in a single book also doesn’t mean what you think it does. Again, Blizzard (storywriters and those who work on the lore) said Worgen have no tails. Thus Worgen have no tails. I’ll see if I can find a Youtube video for it.
Before I forget, earlier in this thread someone else mentioned tails being used by canines for balance. There are canines and felines that exist that don’t have tails.
The Worgen form is technically a Druidic form based off of Goldrinn. So all they would need to do is add a questline where Worgen can gain the full favor of Goldrinn, and Goldrinn can help them perfect their form, which would include a tail as an option (so that those who don’t want tails can be tail-less).
So you’re trolling got it or using some very faulty logic. The slot for a tail is a slot for other characters/models that use the same skeleton. That slot isn’t for Worgen.
The author has said that was a mistake, they later said that Worgen don’t have tails.
It seems you like running in circles. This has already been explained to you.
It is as canon as what is in the books. You can accuse Pawzer of picking and choosing, but you did the same thing right here. Both are intended as entertainment and hype media not Biblical verse.
No but it does not mean it eternally stricken either. Finding it continually popping up in Hearthstone art means it is not the dead issue as you claim.
This is false. Even those with shorter tails have tails, unless they were surgically or through mishap bobbed. And they do suffer balance issues when this is the case. To argue otherwise suggests to me you’ve never owned an animal or if you have never thought to observe how they move. Watch a cat when it loses balance. That tail whips around like a helicopter. Watch a dog make a hard turn when running, the tail will work as a rudder and couterweight.
12 hours later and still no answer to my question just “Blizzard said Worgens don’t have tails” which like isn’t an answer to my question so I’ll take that as the current design of worgen is lore breaking
The writer of the only book that mentions a worgen with a tail said it was written in error. That same author is apart of the story team. They have stated that Worgen do not have tails.
Hearthstone =/= WoW, what happens in hearthstone stays in hearthstone. There is no overlap.
It really isn’t, there are atleast 7 species of dogs that have no tail.
Far as I’m aware, they’re actually not. They mentioned they’re not in the ‘know’ of what’s going on with lore ahead of time.
Their printed book says otherwise, and they wouldn’t know as they’re not involved with the creation of playable Worgen anyways. They can only state one char they wrote about doesn’t have it, even though their book states otherwise.
There is some, especially in regards to some of the Customization humans got that were not by the way… ‘lore explained’ as you want to put it.
This is false, and you can even see them in the pictures that actually show towards the back. Stubby tails, not long tails but still tails. Just like the stubby Pandaren tail.
WoW is one interpretation of the Warcraft universe. It’s not the be all end all of the lore. In the lore, Elwynn Forest is probably more than 30 times the size of ALL in-game zones combined. o.o How is WoW representative of accurate lore? It’s not.
Just because Worgen don’t have tails in WoW doesn’t mean they don’t exist in the actual lore. Black Blood Elves exist in the lore now, and that’s a good change.
Changes can be made guys… calm tf down. Imagine being anti-Worgen Tails for some odd reason.
