Praying for a bit more custom animations, upright orcs look cool but at the same time move incredibly awkwardly.

There aren't a ton of High Elves out there in WoW.
If you are Alliance and want to be an elf, the Horde is there for you.

I completely disagree, it looks incredibly awkward having messed around with it ingame. Originally Posted by Syegfryed

It looking awkward doesn't necessarily mean that it's worse, it just looks very strange to go from a nice looking upright idle and movement pose, to the regular hunched over animations during everything else. Originally Posted by Syegfryed

At least now the new upright running animation doesn't involve hitting yourself in the head with 99% of the weapon models available... Originally Posted by PoshDiggory

Anyone know when we will get upright orcs? Any confirmation it'll be in a pre-patch?

Not as excited as I could be.
The upright orcs feel stiff and awkward when running, and all their animations revert to the hunched over crap. They only really look different when standing still.

Since it's part of BfA rather than the Mag'har Allied race, we'll most likely get the posture in the pre-patch. Originally Posted by Scornedfury

The posture was in the game prior to Mag'har coming out, so it'll definitely be in the pre-patch (as well as the fact that you can finally change your skin color without paying real money). Originally Posted by SensationalBanana

And yeah, the lack of custom animations kind of killed my excitement for upright orcs. I made the switch to Male on my Shaman but I'll probably just end up going Female Maghar on my Warrior because of how much I hate the hunched attack animations.

I could be wrong but i thought that the Upright orcs still used same attack animations as 'bent over' orcs

Don't really care about them reverting back in combat. My asthetic reasoning for wanting up right orcs doesn't run that deep. Lol.
Just as long as they stand and walk around looking like badasses I'm cool with it. I hardly pay attention to my combat animations. That's the last thing in worried about when I'm trying to tank a mythic + of raid.
To each their own.
