What do you think of the Male Human model as of 2013?

[Salandrin]

When you compare it to say, the Pandaren models, what do you think? Is it good by today's standards, or needs a dire rework?

[Mifuyne]

What kind of a stupid question/topic is this.
Ofcourse it needs to be reworked.

[Gugizimo]

I'm pretty sure the vast majority's consensus are that the upcoming rework is justified.

It is getting a rework so the question is pointless.

Check his topics created history. Dozens of stupid questions. He rarely posts in his own topics too.

[Salandrin]

Does it really need a rework? What if people who have been playing one for years are displeased with it?

[Lynneiah]

Just the human male ones? How about all of them apart from Pandas, Worgen and Goblins?

Maybe include an option to retain your old model?

Same thing I thought about the model ages ago when I started playing: probably created in the image of some unfortunate sub-specie of Homo erectus.

[Noorri]

He needs to stop taking steroids. It needs a rework so it looks more like a man and less like Bluto.

It looks fine buried under my character's giant suit of armor when viewed from a camera backed 30 feet into the air behind him.

[Immitis]

its utterly disgusting

[jbombard]

Human male is one of the worst in the game. Dwarves are pretty bad too. Horde races are supposed to be ugly so I guess it works out for them more. Worgen females are pretty hideous but it appears that is the look Blizzard was shooting for so...

[Kaleredar]

Just to back up my previous note, this is about how much of a detailed view I have of my human Death Knight at any given time:




Which I why I'm not necessarily "clamoring" for a better model. I'm fine with waiting until they arrive.

Then either WoW gives the option to use old models or they suck it up and accept they can't always have their way.

They look like something from the 32 bit console series. No facial animation, bad polygons and terrible animations.
The fact it has literally no facial animations when doing anything is kind of disturbing.

For once, other than a Thrall related subject, I agree with you.

[Zuben]

It's been fine for the time the tech was in its early stages, though now it definitely is time to upgrade. The sleepy/derpy face options have always irked me.

If they really don't like a clearer, crisper, more smooth and defined model, tough shit!

I've always cringed at two things about the Wrathgate cinematic - the vicariously embarrassing dialogue of Bolvar Fordragon and Dranosh Saurfang, and how utterly terrible close-ups of Bolvar's face are. The only reason I like to watch the cinematic each time I get an alt to it, is purely because of Putress' appearance. If pre-rendered cutscenes like this, where they have a little better ability to animate their character models, still look cheap and crappy, the less-refined in-game models and animations sorely need revisiting.

[vtshadow]

definitely needs some reworking

If you want to keep male human model, I'm afraid you took the wrong pill this morning.

I swear you just make these topics for some kind of reaction...

Yes. It needs work. No facial animations, bad polygons.
