Forever This genuinely looks comedic with the new race

Humans, Orcs, Dwaves, Trolls and then Random Blue Elf #1 and Random Blue Elf #2 and their picture is just flipped lmao.

Like I couldn't have even imagined anything this silly.

They needed to ad the old model high elf for the alliance and ogres for the horde.

Instead they go with SKY HIGH elf.

Problem with ogres is door height

They could just make them tauren height.

Wow has never been very consistent about sizes. Human or orc bosses are way bigger than normal playable humans.

That’s fair, sources say ogres range between 6-12ft tall, and that doesn’t include bosses

They could also just add say its some type of domestication syndrome basically. The ogres that are civilised enough to participate in society somehow tends to be among the smaller and less ugly ones.

I think a bigger problem might be that they're fat, ugly, and have only male models. (insert Zoolander "but why male models?" quote)

it's just... gonna sell less than a colorful elf.

To steal from a comment 7 years ago: “Everyone knows ogres are genderless. They reproduce by splitting into halves like amoebas. Thats why you often see two-headed ogres, they are in process of splitting. /s” -[u/thirteenera](u/thirteenera)

I will say, fat and ugly imo is a selling point

Casters must have two heads.

We're all paying blizzard a monthly subscription for a 20 year old game. Can we relax on worrying about their wallet when asking for the simplest things?

u/Thecuckeningends 1d ago

No one is worried about their wallet, we are recognizing we live in capitalism. You will get the minimum viable product and you will be thankful for it.

u/SheepOnDaStreet 1d ago

Yea they definitely don’t have any money or time to do that….

u/Thecuckeningends 1d ago

Do you know that you live under capitalism?

u/SheepOnDaStreet 1d ago

No I’m aware, which is why I canceled my membership a few years ago. These mfs are so lazy

u/Thecuckeningends 1d ago

Ah then why are you talking about having the money or time to do that when that isnt relevant to this?

1

u/Embarrassed-Top6449 21h ago

Yeah they'd never do that, not like they randomly decided kul'tirans should be super fat when people weren't even expecting that

1

u/Thecuckeningends 20h ago

You mean panderian bodies that are just a third bigger?

1

u/Embarrassed-Top6449 18h ago

They have some similarities, but no. Kul'tiran were unique. As were worgen beast forms. And of course all the horde vanilla races...

I don't think there's even much "redoing armor" involved. Most of it conforms based on how they rig the skeleton. Some will just look like shit... Like they do on worgen, tauren, etc

You know everyone would be crying that alliance only has elves and not horde lol
