    Trolls Not Getting Upright Option

    Darkspear Trolls will not get an option to stand upright. Neither will Worgen, Forsaken, Tauren, etc. Only the Zandalari and Orcs will be upright.

    Hazzikostas just confirmed this in the Live Q and A.

    Sounds right to me trolls and wolfs have lower combat animation that really wouldn’t work if they were up right unlike orcs. Forsaken and Cows not so much but if forsaken were. Upright it wouldn’t make sense for there spine to be showing like it is now.

    But different ones obviously. And OP meant the Darkspear aswell.

    Now that's a pity considering that with new casting stances they already stand upright. I was hoping for them to at least lessen the hunch as they're even more hunched with their new models than they were in older ones.
    Or to change their stance so it's more like this :



    So they can be still slightly hunched but at least tabard would be visible.

    Indeed, the Darkspear Trolls won't, the Zandalari will. And Tauren are quite upright already... And Well, Worgen are fine as they are, and Forsaken are rotting bags of meat and tissue.
    FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..

    I don’t think the new casting animations are a good thing to go off of as they removed the old racial ones to just make class ones so a lot of the animations don’t seem to fit a lot of the races.

    Yeah I agree, the reason why I rolled troll guy for my shaman was their casting animations, but they breaked them with new models, and then slopply replaced them with class ones. But I would lie if I wouldn't admit that my guy does look impressive when standing up tall in his full height. But I also loved him for so many years, I'd settle np with will lessened hunch by at least small margin.

    I’d be fine with a lesser hunch the problem I have with them all the way up is when they go into there lower meele stance it would look like there trying to bend in half.

    Yeah it is a problem but what can you do when most of the enemies of trolls are midgets compared to them xD?

    Tauren are upright but they have comedically sad forward head, it's like the skulls come out of their chest.

    Of course, just imagine how much more money they can make with race changes.
