What is your favorite race?

[Seylene]

1. Night Elves.
2. Void/High Elves and Draenei
3. Zandalari
4. Blood Elves.
5. Some -some- humans organizations. (Hello Scarlet Crusade)
6. Non Darkspear Trolls. They are just all around fun in general.
7. Mogu.

I don't really care one way or the other about any of the others.

Forsaken/Orcs/Pandaren I don't want to even see outside of killing they are just blah.

I love the new female worgen models, but the good old chain-smoker's voice soured me on them after a few weeks of 8.2.5 - I'd give anything to be able to preserve the human voice in worgen form, like Celestine of the Harvest in Val'sharah.

LOL just realized they do indeed sound like that. Reminds me of a customer who comes in to cash a check smelling like tobacco every other week and her voice is just like the Worgen female's, like been gurgling drain-o.

This! I actually liked better the original nightborne before they made them playable and made them look weird (for me at least)

They look off to me, but I just love Nightborne so much, I've gotten over the fact the playable model doesn't look as good as the NPC. Blizzard never lets us have our cake and eat it too.

Yeah! I knew a lady at an old job of mine, she smoked like 3 packs a day and accent notwithstanding, she sounded EXACTLY like a female worgen.

Makes you wonder if the voice actor who provided the voice for the female Worgen is smoker or if they just took a woman's voice and did some sound editing and altering.

"All right, what do we want the female Worgen to sound like? Can't sound cute, or sexy, has to be monstrous, but still sound like a woman but almost with a snarl."
"...well, my aunt smokes like 3 packs of Menthols a day and has a really gravelly voice."
"Perfect, bring her in!"

I have been a traditional Hordie since way back in WC2. So my list is going to be a bit obviously biased. I just like the sense of a diverse ragtag set of monsters than I do of vaguely similar races with the hivemind for their one true belief. Just missing my Ogres and I can have a "true Horde" theme complete.

1. Goblin
2. Orc
3. Mag'har
4. Troll
5. Tauren
6. Highmountain
7. Zandalari
8. Dark Iron
9. Vulpera
10. Draenei
11. Dwarf
12. Undead
13. Worgen
14. Mechagnome
15. Gnome
16. Kul Tiran
17. Pandaren
18. Human
19. Lightforged
20. Blood Elf
21. Nightborne
22. Void Elf
23. Night Elf

Also, I hate Elves. Not just here, fucking everywhere. They're also abused base for Blizzard to make more off of. At least with beastial characters, as easy as they are to make, do not share 80% of their silhouettes with another.

[tyranade]

My favourite is Undead, no competition.
Last is Nightborn, their unnatural pose when standing still just irritates me, who stands like that?

I must be missing something. What looks unnatural about it?

[tyranade]

Sorry should say I meant the female, I haven’t considered the male. She stands with shoulders far back, chest and hips forward with no movements like a statue. I actually played one when they were first released but it irritated me so much I race changed. .

The same could be said about people who get their feelings hurt by the things other people enjoy.

Well based on your answer you seem a bit hurt :P

[ravenmoon]

Wow. I can't believe that there are actually people who think Anduin was right out there.

Anduin had a responsibility as a military ally to lend the Night elves his strength to reclaim their homeland. This is how a military alliance works. Instead of supporting his military allies in reclaiming their homelands and getting justice for the genocide commited against them, he befriended one of the architects of the night elf genocide. He is objectively a morally abhorrent person. Tyrande was objectively in the right, her people suffered a genocide, they deserve justice and she was entitled to his military support, because this is how a military alliance works.

I like night elves, and okay on humans, but I side with Anduin here, and fault the writers for making Tyrande behave like that. They forced Darkshore battleground at a strategically bad time.

If it was coming in at 8.3, and Anduin refused to send troops after the culmination of the main faction war story, then I'd side with Tyrande.

Meh, it's just a stand still pose, FFXIV I liked for allowing you to alter the ideal stance, it would make such a difference to both male models. I also hoped blizzard would alloow you to alter set facial expressions, but then some of the face options are the same model with a different idle facial expression, so I guess they won't be doing that.

Although I would, especially since you can't alter expressions in character creation, but only in-game with animations.

[spalernTJ]

I'm sure #1 Seth'rak must be playable in at least one universe, so that's my choice.

Like other people have said, every past 11 is pretty much on the same level.
I feel like this thread also shows how words have lost their meaning over time, a bit like "literally" but in this case "hate". Hate used to mean something but the amount of virtual races that have threatened someone's integrity in this game is ludicrous. You can also just "not like" something guys.
