    Lineup for Warlords of Draenor

    Please tell me I'm not the only one who is extremely dissapointed with the under representation of women for the next expansion...Like, what's up with this? Can't post links/photos as this is my first thread, but I'm referring to the 'STORY, HEROES & VILLAINS' section of the teaser page

    It's a serious topic...are you being serious?
    As a guy which I assume you are, surely you'd appreciate a strong female features as a main part of the next expansion.

    We saw a two minute (<?) teaser video. How do you know there won't be any female representation? There always is. Wait a bit to find out more.

    I genuinely appreciate and agree with what you're saying - but sadly, you're in brodude gamer territory. This thread is not gonna end well. :/

    But yeah, they probably should try to boost representation in some other way - sadly, in this case, when you're talking about past heroes in a time when the lore was more of a sausagefest, they're stuck with the same seven dudes as the main antagonists.

    I thought this was MMO-Champion not Tumblr.

    Oops. Continue with the hating men thing. Crush the patriarchy and all that jazz

    On a serious note Ms.Howl, did you not see the super awesome female orc battling the draenei ranger in the snow? She almost made me want to race change my FEMALE Hunter. In fact my Hunter, Mage, Rogue, Paladin, Warrior, Shaman, Warlock, and Priest are all females. The only male toons I have are my Tauren Monk and Orc DK. I love girls just as much as you do. Sylvanas is my favorite character!

    I'm male actually, but true. Gotta love them strong women leads.
    I'm aware I'm in 'brodude' territory, expected a negative response. Bunch o' "Tips my fedora to thee m'lady" sorta folk haha.

    No doubt Draka will make an appearance alongside Durotan. If previous Blizzcons are to be believed, Alleria will also sprout up at one point during the expansion.

    The Orc Chieftains are male. That's just how it is.

    Gotta think Garona will be there doing her usual badass thing.

    Because Orc's haven't reached the levels of equality we have on Earth, I guess?

    Because feminine models aren't finished yet (see the WoD page on Battlenet)… Hence, we do not see women or, really briefly.

    Also, old orcs were all about testosterone. You know, savages, war and huge pric… hum axes.

    Howl I concur, it's a little disappointing
    although historically the Orcish clans were patriarcal, so they can list all the chieftans of the clans, and they'll all be male

    it's like looking at real life history and not seeing enough women. They were there but they were not in positions of power to be recorded in history.

    also the game development industry really needs more women in it.

    No, you're not the only one. All male warlord cast was pointed out by my SO. Not a plus for me. Big minus, really.
    "In today’s America, conservatives who actually want to conserve are as rare as liberals who actually want to liberate. The once-significant language of an earlier era has had the meaning sucked right out of it, the better to serve as camouflage for a kleptocratic feeding frenzy in which both establishment parties participate with equal abandon" (Taking a break from the criminal, incompetent liars at the NSA, to bring you the above political observation, from The Archdruid Report.)
