I really doubt this, hope there isn't a new race...naga definitely doesn't make sense though

To everyone complaining about pants/boots:
Did you even -watch- the video which applies the pants texture to the lower half of the torso/upper half of the tail? Who cares if they can't wear boots if they can still wear pants as a "Sleeve" for their forms? They look freaking amazing...
... though I hope we get a different head that allows for more fin/hair/face options.
And yeah, they'd need a mount animation, but it's not nearly as big a deal as people are saying. Between coil-flop and the fact that they've got a clearly defined "Butt" in their model (Seriously, watch them walk and move, they've got hips and a mono-leg under them rather than vertebrae all the way down inside the model) so they could "Sit" side-saddle pretty easily.
This Video pretty much debunks all concerns and how they could be fixed. I for one think that Naga should be playable in an Azshara/South Seas expansion.
NO. NAGAS.
there are like 10 people in the world that want to play a naga.
focus on sub races mannnn
No sense crying over spilt beer, unless you're drunk...
Yeah what is there to focus on? It is only a switch to enable customization options as a lot exist already. Wildhammer, Dark Iron etc are all in the game already. Highmountain and Bloodhoof Tauren aswell. Several Orc Skins. Lighforged Draenei. All in the game. I would rather have a new unique Race than just some more customization options.
Naga to Horde.
Ogre to Alliance.
No Pants
No Legs
No Feet
No Jumping
No Mounting
Looks Stupid
They need to fudge the lore a bit and give a reason to give them legs to appear more humanoid.
Without all the pauses, the video would have been 3 minutes long.
Naga is the most realistic option for new race, no doubt about it.
All of the concerns are small and very easy to fix.
Also if people really want reptile/saurian races, dragonkin for alliance and saurok for horde
I think the coiled on top version would be more suitable, given that blizz uses largely generic animations for such things, many mounts would have you clipping well into the body if they had naga wrapping around the torso of it.
Naga are still unlikely imo, but i wouldn't be against them being a playable race.
- There are pants.
- They have a tail, so?
- So? Worgen, Tauren and Draenei don't have feet and don't exactly have any real skins for them all the same.
- Why no jumping? It can jump all the same, we're not talking RL animals here.
- Why no mounting? Have you ever seen a woman in a dress on a horse on a side saddle IRL for example?
Lore fits perfectly. They are a rebel faction, separatists from Azshara since Elves are now perfectly fine with them using magic (reason why they joined Azshara in the first place) or Illidan's Coliskar Naga. There are plenty of Naga to join our factions, they would fit perfectly in terms of next expansion vibe and everything really.

Naga? Yes please.
Also through in Murlocs while you're at it. I want my Murloc Warrior to kill
things with its over-sized weapon yelling Murloc noises.
Seems like it would just be easier to create some lore in the 8.0 pre-patch in which a sect of Naga break free from the curse and have a spell cast on them so as to regain some of their past selves, meaning legs and feet.
naga please
People who want "more elves" simply ask for one thing: Races that don't look deformed, monstrous or ripped like hell.
Subraces can fix that and I think it's more than welcome to have new elf subraces at the same time as every other race.
As fan of elf-like aesthetics and Priest, I totally support the Void Elf hype and I hope that it becomes a thing along with decent story background to support it.
