    Sethrak playable race when.

    Since the Vulpera are getting some serious development I was hoping that Sethrak would get the same treatment as their counter part allied race I mean who wouldnt want to play as a snake man with its own unique animations and cool model and modifacations, I made this thread as a speculation/discussion thread since nothing is set in stone with the Vulpera updates I think the new Snekbois needs some love too.

    I guess with they are trying to compansate for that with their sleek bodies since leg less races are a real problem to program.

    This will never stop, does it? Blizzard should stop making npc races, because now every npc race is somehow the best candidate for allied race.. They should make every npc as a target dummy from now, so everyome will shut up. Or not?

    Target dummies playable race when?

    It can't be easy to make a snake body work with gear and mounts but sometimes to make something good it takes hard work.

    True enough but I doubt Blizzard would take the time to program that for a allied race and their models seem more or less finished, I just find them to cool to be wasted as an enemy race.

    I really, deeply, hope that Sethrak become a playable race with only -minor- changes (Female model looking almost identical but lacking the eye horns and wearing clothing differently, but otherwise being the same, different male/female voices).

    Sethrak are awesome and would make an -amazing- Allied Race for the Worgen instead of "Nelf Worgen" which would be yet -another- elf race...
    When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like injustice.

    That's the one thing i don't like about the allied race concept. It seem like a excuse to not make new and elaborate races like they did before.

    I wonder what classes they would have access to, perhaps:

    Warrior, Rogue, Priest, Mage, Hunter.

    What's to say they won't make "New" races later on?

    Allied races = Subraces = what players have been asking for for ages.

    The sooner the better, brother. But it would require creation of female model. I would like to see sexual dimorphism intact. Otherwise it might open doors for rather toxic ideologies.

    I wonder where story will lead them to. Alliance or maybe Horde?

    Maybe take away the neck frill on females and a shorter tail? I dunno.

    Considering they are the enemy of the Vulpera and Zandalari it heavily points them in the Alliance camp wich is what I hope for because the Alliance could use a sinister race that does sneaky thing the forsaken of the Alliance if you will.

    I hope they get druid or shaman since the allied races that the Alliance has doesnt have any of those options right now maybe the Dark irons have shaman but no druids

    Just pray they don't do what bethesda did with the argonians and just slap some tits on a reptilian race.
