As an aside for those mentioning Mok'nathal and Ogres, I'd personally prefer if those arrive as their own set, with an Alliance counterpart that matches it. Having one race be a BfA race and the other Ogre is a bit weird.
Mok'nathal with Broken would be a good combination, imo.
As would Ogres with Arakkoa (but I feel like that would be a full race thing, not AR. But I could be wrong about that, too, after KT)
I agree. But that's all I can think of for using Horde rigs if I really stretch my mind.
I honestly don't think Blizzard is sticking as tightly to the whole idea of "Okay, now we use this rig, and then this, and we go down the list." I think they just make races on certain rigs and then decide to make them playable based on play reaction or where it fits, regardless of whether it reuses a skeleton again or not.
But that's just me.
Kul Tiran society is one subject. Their doesn't make sense attached to it, it makes sense to say "the thornspeakers descendants".
It's stupid to die on this hill because it makes perfect sense why the Kul Tirans are larger than orcs and almost Tauren sized if they are half-Vrykul. Them just being big because "lol" is dumb when a very easy explanation can be assumed.
Well I've been Alliance for 13 years and I very well want Sethrak for Alliance. Precisely because it looks so elegant and classy. That said, if I have to choose between it being playable on Horde side or not playable at all, I'd choose the former. Ideally, Alliance would get Sethrak and Hordes either get Ogres (not because I care about them, but because there are many people who truly want Ogres and I want Blizzard to earn their favour) or some other cool looking bestial race. Though Lightbound Undead seem very likely at this point.
Well, yeah, they probably consider it a little bit. Just not as strictly as people claim, like they're literally going off a list and ticking it down. If they have a concept for a new race, they probably stick with the skeleton that makes the most sense.
Perhaps that's the problem with Mechagnomes? A cart before the horse type deal?
That's the biggest problem with Alliance ARs, and the problem is really that there are so few subraces for Alliance established in previous lore. Broken (assumedly too ugly to implement? hence LFD), High Elf (has 'issues' associated with it, so says Blizz), Dark Iron and Wildhammer (which is really just tattoos, just as Shadowlands shows). So they really have to whip out new races for Alliance out of thin air.
