Can they just update Shandris' model already, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

They also gonna add Vulpera and Sethrak Heroes in HeartStone...
Vulpera is the boss from Freehold and is a Rogue Hero, and the Sethrak is a Shaman Hero...
Coindence I think not!!! (Also please wish it be true for them to be Allied Races!)
For the Horde!
Maybe this is more for you then man...
I would hardly care for the other faction at all...But I LOVE THE HORDE!!!
- - - Updated - - -
I see...
Just making sure when it releases I am ready to go for it...
Did my War Campaign for now at least until they add more too it, and probably gonna do the questing in Nazjatar and maybe in Mechagon...
Still need to level my Blood Elf Female Paladin for the Heritage Armor, and then my Tauren Male Shaman for the Tauren Heritage Armor...
Gonna do the rest too when they either release the other HORDE Heritage Armors or find some good armor sets like for the Orc and Undead...

8.2 June 25th
AEP Raid July 16th
8.2.5 September 24th
8.3 Either December 3rd/10th, or January 14th/21st. Either are possible. I think I'd rather 8.3 release Mid January tbh. 5.5 months is a decent patch length, but as long as we have waited, and the fact that there are two zones etc, makes me want 8.3 to release 6-7 months later rather than 5ish. Also means less waiting until 9.0.
8.3 Jan 14th
8.3 raid- Feb 4th
8.3.5 April 21st
9.0 Prepatch September 1st
9.0- September 29th
If they want a longer beta etc could push it back 1-2 months to October or November.

I totally agree. I understand some people might not be into Vulpera or Mechagnomes, but they're much better choices than yet another generic human-like race. Don't get me wrong, I like human-like races, but a bit of diversity never killed nobody.
I surely hope they do, yet, knowing Blizzard, I would be surprised if they put any effort into it.
I really hope the Sethrak will become an Allied Race. They're so unique it would be a shame to waste them away.
I don't think so. Mechagnomes have a culture of their own and have a different aesthetic than regular Gnomes do. Same goes for Draenei who are quite chill and Lightforged Draenei who are Light fanatics, although I would agree the difference in aesthetic between those two races is very thin.
I do think Mechagnomes are different enough to be their own allied race. Tauren and Lightforged are not.
Well their whole culture was about being purified of the curse of flesh by going back to mechanical bodies. To me, that's enough of a difference. If we follow your thought, Zandalari are just Trolls with a gold fetish, Highmountain Taurens are just mountain taurens, Kul Tirans are just fat sailors, etc.
I agree about the Lightforged though, with the exception of Enaara being nuts hehe!
Agreed! :/
And you think he's just going to magically keep it a secret that 95% of the other orcs in existence are visibly fel green like him and living on a planet that isn't the one they're from? There's no chance that they heard, at any point, about Gul'dan or the Legions' efforts towards Azeroth? Is Broxigar just going to completely lie about his entire history and tell them the orcs are all super great people dedicated to fighting the Legion?
Let's present a scenario.
One day aliens come from space and invade Earth trying to wipe out all life in existence. You know you can't win so you agree to send all of your civilians on a space ship to escape. The space ship never comes back. Eventually you get pretty mad about that.
Later you see one other, different alien who fights against the aliens who invaded earth and kills a bunch, he manages to get away and you meet up with him.
You find out from him, (or from other people later) that he's from the planet your Ark ship went to, what a coincidence! And that almost every single member of his entire race joined those aliens that invaded you for glory and power, and then began slaughtering every human they could find, using their bones to pave roads and their souls to power the same magic the aliens who invaded Earth use!
Meanwhile, you also found out that some of your people, who split from the civilian group, have been fighting for thousands of years against the forces of the aliens who invaded earth as an army of light-powered warriors. Eventually, they return to earth with two other types of strange aliesn and start fighting the Evil Aliens for hundreds of years. After a while, some more of your lost people also show up including the leader who you were mad at for leaving, and they help those other fighters who have been protecting and fighting alongside you for hundreds of years, and together they finally put an end to the Evil Aliens forever.
Now.
You can choose to either join the faction that your refugees have been sheltered by, which is also the faction that those two aliens who showed up with your people's light-warriors originally came from, who you have been fighting by for hundreds of years now. But also the faction that guy you don't like is working with, even though now he's also helped save you and destroy the Evil Aliens.
Or you can choose to join the faction that the one hero's race of genocidal bloodthirsty conquerer's are from, who after slaughtering the remants of your Ark ship, then went with the Evil Aliens to go invade another planet and kill all the people there too.
Which do you think is the more logical thing to do? Stay angry at someone you helped flee for never coming back even though they came back in force and drove off the invaders? Or join the group that willingly helped your greatest enemy and slaughtered the women and children you tried to let escape, because you met one of them and he killed a bunch of demons in the past and then died a few decades later of old age.

I'm pretty convinced that, had they come to the idea sooner, they might well have made LF Draenei and possibly HM Tauren into earned cosmetics in the same way that NE Night Warriors are cosmetics. Sure, they have different racials, but they didn't have to, and I think LF Draenei particularly would have worked very well as an earned cosmetic by following a storyline to assist some Draenei in becoming Lightforged. Equally the HM Tauren are a race, but you could have had a storyline where some other Tauren got blessed by the appropriate being and granted HM Tauren antlers and markings, so they could have just been cosmetic options for Tauren.
But that's hindsight. Blizzard hadn't done the cosmetic thing then, that all came later. I presume the whole upright normal orcs thing only happened because they worked out that they could do it whilst developing the Maghar.
Mechagnomes are a bit more of a big deal, because y'know cutting off your limbs and replacing them and so on is a bit more, er, extreme, so I think it's viable to make them a new race, not just a set of cosmetic options.
I'm still hoping they do Wildhammer Dwarves myself, but I'd certainly be fine if they were just new cosmetic options that opened up for normal Dwarves after you did some kind of quest (probably also a new gryphon mount), though I'd also be fine with them as a race. And I think you could shut up about 93% of the High Elf crowd by giving Void Elves some HE skin tone and hair colour/style options (not that I think Blizzard cares).
I feel like that parable lost its train of thought somewhere in the middle. If anything, it shows that not all the aliens are alike, and you might even realize they were misled, just like the ones from your race that joined the evil aliens - not to mention that they were corrupted by one of your former leaders.
And you might see those that freed themselves from the evil influence as more trustworthy than those of your kind that, to your knowledge, did nothing but flee.
However, I'm actually of the opinion that with how diverse both factions are now, the ongoing faction conflict and player/character race split makes less and less sense.

But your duty to Azeroth is not yet complete. More is demanded of you... a price the living cannot pay.
Exactly the opposite. Mechagnomes are nearly identical to regular gnomes to the point where one wandering through a gnome town wouldn't even be considered odd.
Even their backstory with having been kicked out of their home is similar.
Highmountain and Lightforged at least have a different mentality, especially the latter.
And we've had NPC races with dances before. Even Drustvar witches have a dance for some reason.
We even had the exact same thing as a questline in WotLK, except that time, the one doing it actually knew exactly how to and wasn't trying to do it to non-gnomes.

I disagree. I could easily see a gnome doing it simply to see if it works. Lightforging is not undertaken so lightly in comparison.
And that's the problem with Mechagnomes, they're just Gnomes²: Even Gnomier. LF Draenei are a different, far more militaristic culture than Exodar Draenei. HM Tauren also have some different approaches than plains Tauren.
