New Troll Models 5.2

**Nympharia** · 2012-12-23, 04:35 PM

What do you think of it?

**Uzi** · 2012-12-23, 04:38 PM

Looks pretty good, but I don't think the new player models will look like this. They said they want to be really careful about keeping the style of the old ones, so I expect the same hunched back.

Its just the Zandalari but they do look smexy!

**TheWindWalker** · 2012-12-23, 04:42 PM

Considering all the lightning they seem to be infused with they may very well be physically altered to the point of being post-Troll.

These are the 'new' troll models with the night elf skeleton and animations. They look great from this standing perspective, but trust me, once you see there animations its just going to feel like yet another reskinned model of something that came before.

someone recently posted me a wowhead model viewer of the new troll models, and one was clearly animated with the male night elf skeleton.

WoWHead shows the animations, not ALL of them are from the night elf skeleton, but most are, which means it's based on it.

Doesn't mean they can't make new animations.

Do I really have to find that picture with differences between skeleton/model/skin?

I think most people understand the difference, but when they're using the same animations, it makes them a more obvious re-model, and ruins it because all you think of is "Lol, Night Elf clone".

Yep. Nightelf-Trolls. Here's the link:

I honestly don't have that happen at all. I didn't even realize Mogu were Draenei till someone pointed out even the Feng "dance" was the Draenei dance sped-up and cancel/reactivated repeatedly.

Thank you. Yes, can see these new models will just be reskins of male night elf skeletons, which is just offputting. Trolls are primal and savage, nelves are twinkletoes faires.

Odd, they share some of the same idle animations as Night Elves, but their standing animation is different.

...
I noticed there were reskins of draenei from the first ptr preview.

Who cares? Does this really ruin the game for you? Are you that sad?

I don't know how you couldn't see it, do you play horde and hardly see draenei or something?

Doesn't ruin the game, but certainly makes it look mundane.

The more it ruins game for Traask, the better.
