Are you guys actually serious that the gendering of the Dracthyr voicelines are offensive or are you being sarcastic? I do hope it's the latter because if not, this is a sad society we live in.

They control time, it doesn't matter when they arrive.A Bronze Dragon is never late, nor are they early. They arrive precisely when they mean to.

They're fine.
But I would say that some of them are as offensive as the ones that were deleted before.

So, after all the buzz and the gender complains, here we are.
Male and female.

Thankfully the General Secretary and Commissar Committee has reviewed these jokes and flirts and deemed them acceptable for release.

The jokes are silly and perfect, but when heard they really fall short in the delivery somehow.
I kinda really hope they add more voice options for all races, nevermind the gender crap.

Voices are good (could use a bit more raspyness),
but damn most of these are garbage.

Can someone ELI5:"I showed my tail to one of those wolf people, but they just looked sad and walked away. I wonder why?" I am not getting the reference.

Worgen players have been asking for tails for a while and the hive was kicked recently in BTS when Genn is described as having one when he doesn’t. Originally Posted by Xantous4201

There's always going to be people critiquing these lines but "We scale really well" has me rolling.

I remember when Blizz used to actually make funny jokes and flirts with the races. Good times those were. Really though are any of you surprised these are so bad? This company is now ran by people with the same sensibilities as right wing Christians circa 1995 and won’t let anything that could even be misconstrued as offensive by ANYONE get in. This is the company that censored a 15 year old blurry pixelated painting that almost no one noticed in an old ass dungeon after all. Thank goodness for that bowl of fruit!

These jokes are kinda just "there" for me. There's definitely a chuckle here and there, but you can definitely tell they're attempting to ensure things are inoffensive.
As an aside, I wouldn't be surprised if the old guard would have snuck in something along the lines of, "I'll have you know I can be a VERY Bad Dragon" as a flirt.

No the joke in LotR is about Gandalf joking about a wizards self importance. The joke doesn't make sense because if you control time there is no such thing as early or late. Like the meme: "what do we want? Time Travel, When down we want it? It's irrelevant." Originally Posted by Ealyssa
