Mag'har and Dark Iron come to my mind, Dark Iron racial is vastly inferior to normal Dwarf outside of pvp maybe, and Mag'har is fairly underwhelming too.
    It's really not, but carry on and be dramatic like that

    Most of the player base play the original races, so it makes sense they're going to cater to that side of the player base first in terms of customizations.

    I thought Humans had the most new options so far? I'm pretty sure Blizzard said in an interview for SL that Human customisation was a big push.

    Doesn't seem anything revolutionary outside of pandering to the "racial diversity" crowd. I mean ok, they added black skin colour, few afro hairstyles and 3 jaw shape variants. Nothing out of the ordinary. Cool that they add them, as long as the SJW crowd doesn't cry "how dare white people make an African Azerothian human this is insulting towards real black people!" etc. etc. (SJWs are weird like that). The options look good, but they're too few imo. Like 2-3 options for black or asian type only.

    Goblins can fully customize thier faces including chin and nose which imo is more important than a couple tattoos and warpaint.
    ... that's because those options were always there for Goblins, they were just tied together. They didn't make new features for Goblins, they just untied them and allowed you to separately use them.

    Well, considering the moral of the Worgen heritage questline is "Being a worgen sucks, stay human if you can." Hmh, perhaps you're more right than you realize.

    It’s called taking priority ffs. Customisation is low priority compare to, y’know, developing the main story line, raids, dungeons, classes etc. They’re not going to throw all of their resources into making sure all of the races have an equal amount of customisations for launch when it’s something they can keep gradually adding throughout the expansion.

    So? Its much more noticeable customization then tattoos and warpaint that partially cover each other up. Most if not all of the beard/sideburns options are just unlinked original options and both get jewelery. Id much rather have a face you can create than a couple tattoo options 99% of transmogs wont show.

    I am scared whenever I remember that Forsaken will get a questline like that too in the future.

    Because adding the bald option took them literally zero effort, and many people will like it.

    It will involve Calia lightforging Forsaken into pale regular humans.

    Players rarely think practically.

    And giving them Garithos themed transmog.

    Simple answer. In my fantasy setting I imagine my character as a paladin. And I want my character to look kinda old with a nice beard and armor that resonates the essence of a paladin.
    Every other race that can be a paladin looks like ass TO ME. Tauren and draenei... no comment. I actually like draenei but armor looks terrible on them with their upper half looking twice as bulky as their lower half for males. Blood elves in plate look like they have sticks for legs when you wear a bulky plate boot.
    Humans in plate armor just look perfect. Everything sits very well on them and I love it. Hence I play human.

    Is that basically it for customisation options now? There seems to have been little new added for a while.

    the fact that they were added "not long ago" as well ass the fact that they had more options than original races in the first place are pretty good reason not to get more customization. the fact that you decided to race change isnt opn them, its on you. you wanted the change, you got it. assuming nothing was going to change (especailly with a new xpac on the horizon) is also on you.

    i wouldnt assume we will see more large customization changes, but i also wouldnt think we are completely finished either.

    Safe to say they are done now.

    Excuse me, were is this Allied Race that has more options than Core Races do in BFA?

    All of their customization is very, very sparse.

    They don't. Especially Nightborne and LF Draenei have really poor amount of choices. 3 skin colours ffs. The race that already had plenty of choice, i.e. Void Elves, gets even more, but well, elf fanbase is big so I see the point of adding more option to already plenty played races (belf / velf / nelf), but why Nightborne aren't on that list?

    Also Nightborne have fewer faces than their parent race, Nelf.

    My point is that these options weren't custom made for Goblins for Shadowlands. They were always there, just linked together.

    They didn't make a bunch of new meshes to offer them as new features. When it comes to actually new features, Goblins don't really have many.

    Some better fitting helmets for male Tauren and Worgen.
    Panda forms for Druids, maybe give Pandaren Druid forms.
    Saberon, or similar, models for Feral Druids.
    Glasses for races.
    I've been wanting Glassed as a customizable for a long time, and more Gnome options like the one listed would be kinda sweet, and Gods yes... fix the Helm models for Tauren and Worgen.

    Seems that way. I feel bad for Worgen players.

    "B-but they get all the options humans get-"

    So? They're Worgen.

    Ah, yes, glasses, please give me, so many players use glasses that it surprise me that there aren't any normal glasses in the game, be it customization or at least a transmog head piece (like the monocle)

    Really? I do remember that Genn daughter wanted to take the course but was persuaded otherwise cause it was "not a good idea" but it sound strange when you have in mind that in Hearthstone Genn quote is literally: "Our curse has become our greatest strength", but yeah, in the end is HS not a good comparison for the sake of actual lore.

    I wonder if Worgen are doomed like the Forsaken to disappear completely eventually (at least from the Alliance)
