WoW needs more races

[Dandone]

More races would make the game more intresting. What race you would like to see added???

I think hobbits and skeletons would be best, but what do you think?

[Deleted]

None of the listed.

Normal goblins Eff Tee Double-U!


Skeletons are a race all of the sudden? Wut? Are you serious?
Hobbits? Get out of here, you LOTR nerd! Wrong forums!
The Lich is not a race; it's a type of spellcaster within the Scourge.

Hobgoblin = Very ugly Dwarf
Ogre = Orc
Hobbit = Gnome
Skeletons = Undead
Lich = Death knights

Ogre =/= Orc. Ogre's are the half-naked things in loincloths that cast spells and you kill them all the way thru AZ and OL. They were also in every warcraft RTS game as allies on the horde.

All that said, No no no no and no. These races suck, gnomes already suck and we don't need more retarded little midgets running around being obnoxious.

Pandaren should be the next playable race, available to both Horde and Ally.

But then the whinning china-people will whine about killing pandas and whatever.

Do not want. Pandaren are the stuff of April Fool's Jokes, nothing more.

One can argue "Chen Stormstout exists," but to be perfectly honest, I don't think he ever truly did. Rexxar and Ro'khan were just trippin' on acid and hallucinated a giant, alcoholic bear friend.

"What about his keg?" So what...it's a keg with his name on it somehow. It doesn't mean he actually exists. It's like me writing "Superman" on a pair of boxer briefs and leaving them in the park; just because they say his name doesn't mean they are his or that he exists. And the few characters that acknowledge his existence in WoW...drunkards themselves. Obviously they are also perceiving things that aren't there.

/e waves hand mystically.

There ARE no Pandaren.

Your Jedi mind-tricks do not work on me. Chen did/does exist. He's a part of the intergrated WoW lore. Believe it or not, scrub. Sorry to burst your bubble.

WAT.

No, the Chinese will think that Americans are morons for dressing up the Chinese national symbol in Japanese Samurai garb.

The link lists most of the ideas people have had already.

Goblins for the Horde! They could use a gnome like funny little race. I would say Naga but I think they're going to be a huge part of the enemy in the next expansion. Another possibility is Ogres

Pandaren for the Alliance! Didn't Blizz just sell their game in China to some other company, or did I hear that wrong? Does it matter anymore? The Alliance could use a race the size of Tauren. Another one could be Furbolgs, but I'm not a big fan of that one. Drakonids are there too, even though it might be a stretch.

[Wazdakka]

One "Skeleton" and "Lich" aren't races.

Two, WoW has plenty of races.

Night Elves
High/Blood Elves
Naga
Satyr
Vrykul
Humans
Dwarves
Earthen
Gnomes
Goblins
Murloc
Gorloc
Wolvar
Panderan
Trolls
Qiraji
Nerubians
Kobolds
Treants
Dyrads
Furbolg
Dragonkin
Tuskarr
Magnataur
Giants...

So on and so forth

[riflemancho]

PANDAREN!

[Wratize]

thats called draenei :P

[darkhorse1382]

thats called draenei :P

Except they aren't, they're just a little bigger than Night Elves. They are no where near as freaking huge and imposing as Tauren. Drakonids or Pandaren could be.

[Paliman]

Hobgoblins aren't even a race in wow. I just see them as skinny red skinned orcs imo.

Ogres. What ever.

Hobbits? What is this? Lotr? Gnomes are our hobbits.

Skeletons. Skeletons are the undead. If you haven't realized yet, the skeelton model and the (player) undead model are almost exactly the same.

Lich. Liches are not a race. They are living that went through a ritual to become a lich. They are undead, otherwise known as very powerful necromancers.

Now, listen to this guy...

He mostly said the same thing as I did.

[Wazdakka]

Hobgoblins are actually in the Warcraft universe. They're purple, giant, alchemically engineered goblins that don't live all that long.

It's just basically no-one has ever heard of them.

[Izenhart]

The only race I'd like to be implemented is an Ahn-Qiraj sort of race, either with Egyptian look-a-like skin (Anubisath and a lot of trashes) or with an Anh'Qiraj Prophets/Emperors like Skeram and a lot of trashes, a Mix of insect/humanoid race.

[Strijder]

i want forest trolls

[General Vezax]

Hobgoblin - Almost exactly the same to a goblin, and regular goblins would be better.
Ogre - A species full of (mostly) idiots, and only one tribe is allied with anyone.
Hobbit - Gnome, but hairy.
Skeletons - Forsaken?
Lich - Scourge...yeah no
