Haytham for females it looks borderline all right for real life, but not for Warcraft, for males it looks weak.
How can they update a race that already looks awesome? I bet they will ruin it somehow.
Agreed, though lets not forget that Goblins do also have green skin, and I suppose you could drop Trolls in that category too, if you really wanted to. To be honest, I don't care which race receives the lore (Orc's are becoming a little old, though), but I am mostly talking of the player base here.
After seeing the miracle they have performed with the orc female models, I am certain that the blood elf models are going to look fabulous. They should look the best though as they are the most "attractive" of all of the other races imo.
Since they try to preserve the looks as much as possible I don't have high hopes. Belf females are good enough but belf males look so fucking retarded that I can't even express it in words.
Honestly I'm expecting the Draenei to look very good - simply because you will see more of them in the expansion, therefore they should get a significant priority.
If they dont make it into expansion launch as opposed to Orcs and Belfs...well, expect more "Horde Bias!" threads :P
I really do hope, they'll look awesome. Though I hope even more, that their racial will be competitive. Currently almost forced to play a Troll as warlock and going to race change immediately if i won't loose DPS.
Since I mainly place Blood Elves this is something I'm not looking forward to. The new models are already looking like a totally new game. Their faces just seem out of place in WoW after so long.
I fully expect my male Belf's default expression to be 'Blue Steel' from Zoolander.
