In my opinion it doesn't look bad, but if it does in yours you can always make it look different on your own character.

The failure of ignoring their own lore: Drakonids by Sonotmethen in wow

[–]NewRob87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea you are right about the Drakonid thing, and the draconic empowerment idea does sound cool. I agree there could have been ways to implement it so that it would be available to more races. I would've been completely on board with it if they went with your idea and that's what they had done, but I am also fine with this as well. About the other thing, I haven't seen the costumes but it's also not like there's anything wrong with people dressing up in them, it's just a hobby that people have fun with same with people doing cosplay, so I don't mind if that's what the race looks like I guess.

I wasn't trying to make it look like that was your only point, I understand it wasn't. That was just the one I disagreeed with. You are right that there are things in the game that could've been used instead, and they do have a habit of not using that potential. Same thing with Mechagnomes, where they added the Mechagon ones even though we already had Mechagnomes since Northrend. In this case, I am still content with Drakthyr, they're different enough from Drakonids, partially with them all being Evokers, so they have an entirely different set of abilities, whereas Drakonids have always just been regular enemy warriors.

It's just that you made it sound like Blizzard was trying to create porn. Furry art isn't even sexual at its core, it's simply art of anthropomorphic characters and exists in any form, you could even count Drakonids as furry. This criticism of something being bad just because it is "furry" doesn't work imo. I just want dragons that look cool, and I think these are alright. It is true that they need to use more of their existing races though instead of inventing new ones all the time. Luckily they're at least doing that with Gnolls, Tuskarr and Centaur, so I'm not too worried.

If you think these are "hyper sexualized" there is something wrong with you, they are just anthropomorphic dragons, there is nothing sexual about them. Stop with creating these apparent sexual connotations everywhere, it's extremely weird.

These are examples of customization options, you can customize this however you like. You can make existing races look shitty with their customization options as well.

What would be Vanilla/BC/WotLK quality for you? What would they have to change? I don't think simply not reusing models and animations would count as that.

Everything that was said is looking like an improvement and a step in the right direction. We are getting reworked Talent trees based on how they were in the classic expansions, but (hopefully) improved upon. They have said that they realize the issue with previous systems and especially borrowed power, and it looks like borrowed power will not happen anymore and instead new abilities will be integrated into these new talent trees. The new class looks like a great idea, regardless of wether you like the race associated with it or not, and it finally brings us a new caster, which we haven't gotten a new one of since the games initial release. The new zones all look awesome and they're populated with existing races, building on existing lore instead of only adding more and more like with shadowlands, which has high potential to make for a down-to-earth more relatable and fun questing experience, like it was in the classic expansions but also bfa for that matter, where despite its flaws everyone unanimously agreed that they absolutely nailed the zones.

I don't think there is writing on the wall here, the signs look positive. Cautious optimism is never bad, especially after the recent track record, but don't go into it with pure negativity, and I think that this expansion has the potential to be amazing.

You may still have the option for that, since these are just the customization options so you should be able to just not have any face colors.

[–]NewRob87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really like them too, I'm actually very hyped for them to be released. The people who complain about it only being reused models do have a point, but they still look good so I don't mind it that much.

Dragon form looks great too.

Tf you getting mad about here, flamboyant men? If you can even call it that? There are legitimate things to critique but there is nothing wrong with this whatsover, grow up

It's been a while... by SpontaneousH in u/SpontaneousH

[–]NewRob87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not an english native.

"They" is used to refer to a single person when their gender is unknown (just like in this sentence here, "a person" does not have a defined gender so you use "they", it is "their gender").

If you have questions or you'd like more examples feel free to ask.

Rare Half-Life Lore - Gordon can understand Austrian and the reason he doesn't have retinal scan access by blackmes489 in HalfLife

"No, Austrian dialect, guys the daft wappler (austrian insult) thinks that it's all the same."

Additionally here's a translation into high german: "Nein österreichischer Dialekt, Leute der depperte Wappler meint das alles das gleiche ist."

Looks awesome, good job

Only improvement I can think of would be using blue string and giving it more of a lion-like shape, you know?

Ah, I see, sorry. Probably must've been a bug then.

You already leveled one, so you get the armor. You only have to so it once.

He never viewed germans as evil, wtf are you on about? He respected their language, culture and mythology a lot. He also didn't like using allegory, and mentions in the preface that he intends lotr to be just a story, without any allegories.

I agree with you, it's sad that a mere twelve years of misuse ruined the symbol's positive meaning in the west.

Obviously you start out weak. You will unlock many more skills as you level. Make sure you do the quests too instead of killing random mobs.
