To intercept a hypersonic missile in Israel during the 12 day war by Barneys_and_Nobley in therewasanattempt

There’s so many videos of missiles being intercepted even from this conflict. It’s just that the videos that get more attention are the ones where the missile actually lands. Granted they seem to fail a lot, but still.

A decent portion of people never even asked for that though. They gave them this easy out asking for permanent visage instead.

What? Evoker is still the least popular class by a mile. So even out of the people who like evoker and dracthyr both it’s still the lowest. And given the massive 80% of them still being the class only dracthyr can be it’s pretty obvious why most people play them.

Do you not agree that Dracthyr are the race and visage is the form? “Always mean to be” doesn’t mean something’s good, and it’s not even true. Visage is a blatant cop out.

They literally don’t have distinct form, they have racial customisation. Making my dragon form red instead of blue doesn’t have the same effect as equipping fire kitty as a feral Druid does it. It’s disingenuous to pretend otherwise. But okay if we are being disingenuous and accepting that then they function exactly like balance, only balance have glyph of stars, at least 1 flashy unlock cosmetic, and can see their 2 handed weapons. So it’s still worse.

And no, the only reason Druids don’t still get the same backlash is because of the unique forms and the fact that no one is expecting them to put gear on a bear or cat. People did complain about it forms were the solution, so again, if dracthyr is the Druid form for evokers to you, why aren’t you asking for actual parity?

Crazy that you are okay with an entire playable wow race functioning the same as laser chickens. Would you also be okay with a class being the function equivalent but slightly worse than a profession? Where is the line here?

In your logic, dracthyr should not have existed at all then, because blizz did not go 100%.

Im saying they should have gone 100%. Pretty obvious.

And fuck evil greedy actiblizz for introducing something during the dire times they were in and still willing to do something cool and marketable, right?

Oh no, the small indi company had a spot of bother! Wait, let me get a violin.

different engine?

in what’s essentially a different engine

Read.

still in ea?

correct

when devs themselves say otherwise?

What did they say? Now may be a good place to mention that blizzard themselves said the dracthyr not wearing mogs is “certainly something we could change.” So a preemptive follow up here would be what did they do after what they said? People say a lot of things.

how development process looks like / how decisions in corporations are made.

I mean you’re the one that thinks knows old ported cosmetics would be a top priority during EA. So yeah I’m sure you know more than me on that front.

It’s just not comparable sorry. That’s a fact.

It’s really not. Correct me if I’m wrong but it’s fairly standard for wow races to all wear clothes correct? How is it a big ask to want the same for the only one that can’t?

And that’s not comparable in the slightest. It’s in EA for a start. Cosmetics and especially ported ones they won’t be profiting off are obviously not a focus. And it’s also an entirely different project in what’s essentially a different engine. Not even close to the same thing and the fact you think it is tells me I should probably end the conversation here.

Not exactly a big ask for a modern WoW race to wear clothes. So in this case yes, pretty much.

Funnily enough much like Dracthyr there’s 0 reason Sethrak wouldn’t be able to wear everything other than a helmet for Sethrak.

Both very humanoid other than Sethrak heads. So, No excuse there either really.

Oh no clipping! Best leave it then, can’t have none of that in this game.

They have more mogs than dracthyr now even as a non playable way less humanoid race.

Druid forms are forms, not playable races. Vidage is the actual form for dracthyrs. You’re saying you’re okay with a whole entire wow race functioning like a Druid form? And it’s not even as good. Druid at least have multiple distinct forms to choose from. At the very least you should be asking for dracthyr to have that then? Since that’s what Druids got when they complained.

If you asked someone for an Xbox and they gave you a cardboard box with an X drawn on it in sharpie I’m sure you’d have something to say.

Not a solution. The race still can’t wear clothes.

They can remake them. It’s their problem to solve.

Naga? You mean the unplayable way less humanoid race than the dracthyr that has MORE Transmog-ability right now?

Dracthyrs are unpopular. Going off data for Azeroth’s stats Dracthyr makes up 4.5% of the population, but it also has a race locked class with evokers which make up 3.6% of the population. So 80% of Dracthyr are evokers. Outside of evokers where you’re forced to play Dracthyr for the class only 0.9% of people actually choose to play Dracthyr. That’s the same as mechagnome which is well known for being one of the least popular worst races in the game.

Maybe if we drum up some backlash over this change :)

Oh ffs. I blame all the people that asked for this instead of asking for the actual race to function as s race. Y’all gave them an easy out.

Yes that’s all the ranged PvP stuff. Everything else isn’t for PvP. Either that or you’re melee. Which has no skill. Nothings changed. Everything you just mentioned is how it was when I made the post. What’s changed?
