Yeah, what? Metamorphosis is everything a demon hunter is about lol, if you don't like it why are you playing the class?
I'm sure they'll introduce a glyph at some point anyway, which will maintain your regular form.
He didn't turn into a demon before he obtained the Skull. He was still a Demon Hunter even before that as far as I know. He didn't have Meta available prior to that.
My main problem with it as well, but also don't like how bulky it is. Would like an option to have the havoc form. It doesn't even look like my character. Gimme my weapons back and an option to choose between the two forms or make it so it can be customized like the druid forms depending on your skin color and hairstyle etc.

The spec is called Balance, not Moonkin. The spec didn't always come with the form afaik I know, was only added in a patch.
Pope - why the hat?
Ocean - why the water?
We can make statements like this all day but they won't change anything. They'll add a glyph if they think it's needed and ranting on a non-blizzard forum doesn't usually catch blizzards eye. Personally I don't mind meta for havoc, the vengeance demon I can be without though.
Nope before he drained the powers in the skull he was a Sorcerer his draining the skull is what gave him the Demonic Powers and created the first of the Demon Hunters. From WoWpedia http://wow.gamepedia.com/Illidan_Stormrage
During the Third War and the Legion's second invasion of Azeroth, Illidan was freed from his prison by Tyrande, who believed that he would be a valuable ally in the conflict. However, before battling the dreadlord Tichondrius, Illidan consumed the foul energies of the Skull of Gul'dan, and, in the words of Maiev, became "neither demon nor night elf, but something more".
He already had powers before that thanks to Sargeras who burnt out his eyes and replaced them along with the tattoos. There are the likes of Loramus who seemingly don't have demons inside them nor possess demonic qualities yet were considered Demon Hunters as early as vanilla. The Illidari Demon Hunters are just a result of Illidan's own trials and things he learned up to TBC, but as said he was considered one before the Skull came into play. Arthas even calls him Demon Hunter before he instructs him to search for the skull.

The first Deathknight wasn't anything like the Death Knights we have now either. Whether we agree or not, Blizzard feels that Meta is class defining and to a large degree it has become so.
That being said I don't see any harm in providing a glyph to change meta. I mean Glaives are pretty class defining too yet Allari wields a damn sythe. Slightly jealous of that.
Metamorphosis is a pretty big part of DH's identity but I think more option wouldn't hurt. I don't know how could like the class without liking metaporphosis though. Its significance on the class's identity is pretty crucial.

that's a bad example. Moonkin form was not even a significant part of the lore of druids. Metamorphosis is.
OP i agree with you. Im on same boat waiting for a glyph.

The glyph warlocks used to have. I want same but for DH.

Let me guess, the people crying out for a glyph are Blood Elf female players complaining about the fact that they are unable to admire their glorious skimpy transmog for a mere 30 seconds, or the fact that their meta form is not pretty enough.
No. I would like an opportunity to individualize my demon form so it doesn't look like everyone else's, but turning into a demon is a core part of being a demon hunter.

I would support this, and/or glyphs to let us choose between various demon skins, just so we can individualize a bit.
"I Am Vengeance. I Am The Night. I Am Felfáádaern!"
Warlocks had this glyph, so will DHs also.
I would love a glyph too. I don't like the female demon forms, and they were a big consideration in my decision of what to roll as. I don't mind the male demon forms though, they look good.
I'm 100% sure they will add a glyph eventually, but it might take years. Blizzard probably wants us to live the full demon hunter fantasy this expansion at least.
I just want the tatts/hair/horns/blindfold to match and also a glyph to make look like lock meta.
