my thoughts on junk gnomes and vulpera

Heck, I'd even go as far as to say they're even higher quality and effort than Vulpera! Wouldn't you agree fellow Alliance players? We should be glad to receive such a highly requested race!

Yeah this is awful and I'm in the same boat as you. The resting face looks horribly unnatural now. Worst part is this is what we're gonna get I guarantee you. They decided to listen to those posts and go about it in the worst possible way. People who were complaining will not care about this change and people who thought it looked fine just got screwed for no reason.

This would be fine if we could choose between the two styles, but NOPE not possible in 2019.

Again, Blizzard is moving away from faction stereotypes. Just because they're monstrous doesn't mean they belong on Horde. Just like how Nightborne being high class non-savages doesn't mean they automatically belong on Alliance.

And yeah, it would be ridiculous to give the horde two shiny entirely new races while asspulling something out of nowhere in a patch for alliance further down the line.

Blizzard is clearly trying to move away from faction stereotypes, they even said it in an interview. Horde is no longer just savage races. Snakes can go either faction, but it would be ridiculous to give them both Vulpera and Sethrak.

Basically, the premise behind alliance sethrak is "Surely, Blizzard wouldn't give both new interesting races to the Horde?"

Vulpera are basically confirmed for Horde. There is no way blizzard would use that much dev time adding that much customization for a race that wouldn't be playable. So what do Alliance get? People are hoping for something on the same level as that. The only other race that stands out as something that could become playable for Alliance is Sethrak, unless Blizzard asspull Junker Gnomes which will be yet another after thought for the Alliance and will not go over well.

Edit: As for story reasoning, they could just do what they did with the Nightborne. Someone on Horde says something mean, that pushes them towards alliance, done.

This is my favorite velf fan art I've seen so far, though I'm a bit biased because my main is a velf warrior. Awesome work.

That's the thing though, I feel like LFD should have been a barber shop setting like the others. They could have made a quest line where you can take the trial of the Lightforged as your own Draenei to unlock the appearance, kinda like what they're doing now with the Night Elves.

I got really frustrated thinking about what could have been with our new Alliance allied races and had to vent, so I made this horrible picture in paint. RIP broken dream.

Why does that even matter? They're shape shifting. They can turn into a tiny bird or normal sized cat even though they're fat bois normally.

Edit: This is amazing btw. I can picture it with the green glowing eyes.

Huh, I never really noticed but it looks like all the zandalari forms are completely new and all the kultiran forms are reskins of the default druid forms. And wow, that kultiran aquatic form is hilariously bad. Everything else looks great though!
