/wowg/ and the post got deleted just now. If mine gets deleted just know I have no plans on removing it

What's wowg

[Ersula]

Look awesome

I mean it's already been debunked but

Why would they give us this furry mess when the canon interpretation of dragons in wow are non-scalie player races who occasionally turn into full sized dragons? These are like the worst worst worst of both worlds.

All of which is a moot point. Comparing modern day raids to a new talent set up is pointless. The tuning may be different going forward. Less damage and more mechanics focused, ect.

So then the talents won't even help with the raids? It is a simple thing that the more options you have the more you will have traps for less skilled players to fall into by picking "wrong" choices. The does impact balance and if you have been a long time players, as in from TBC onward, you would understand this. Because it did exist. It is why "cookie cutter" builds were a thing as it gave everyone the right choices for their class.

Even when you could freely spend points between all trees you wouldn't be very viable for end-game content. Which just caused frustration for the players that just followed options the game allowed but got punished for it because they had not contribution to the group. In a 40-man setting that might work but not in the smaller group sizes of modern wow.

Wowsisters is there at chance they might redo the race from scratch if we tell them its uncanny af ?

And that sexualized outfit on top of a non sexualized race. I mean, whats the point ?

Body inclusivity or something like that ?

Someone posted a 12 point thing on why they think it's fake and stitched together from mob textures.

And something about Scalies and Furries.

In short, it's not.

[Chickat]

There are so many crediblish leaks that I have no idea what to think anymore. It's kind of scary and exciting.

[Hitei]

It looks so fucking Divinity 1/2/Dragon Age. Dont get Warcraft vibes at all. Mogu/Arakkoa/Sethrakk died for this.............................

Again looks more like Spore than like WoW. Art style just doesn’t match IMO.

It's fine to not like it, but provide actual reasons, not this totally dishonest "iT dOeSn'T lOoK lIkE wArCraFT" crap. That thing is just an HD Saurok/dragonman model. It's completely in line with other reptiles/dinosaurs/dragons we've gotten over the years, structurally similar to Eredar/Draenei/Worgen/Satyr, and stylistically the same as any other model.

One would assume because they aren't meant to be dragons, they're meant to be a less bestial looking new form of dragonkin.

Even if it’s changed all the races in Shadowlands still look… Cartoony I guess you would say? Bulbous even. This creation is a stick figure with dragon features and randomly chosen armor to be worn.

I don’t know what you mean dude. It looks like it’ll fit alongside everything else just fine. Everyone saying the dragon model doesn’t match the rest of the models in the game need to head to LensCrafters.

Woah! This looks cool.

It's chest texture is just pasted from the generic female naga's tail.

Also, why the f*ck is this latest pic wearing pieces of the Blood Elf heritage armor?

They are going the Dragonman route. Maybe these are what Deathwing was trying to create but failed.

Agreed. Everyone saying it looks out of place is cracked. If you don’t like it that’s fine, but saying it doesn’t “belong” doesn’t work. The Nightbourne models looks a million times worse than these dragons.

Already looks way better. I just fear everybody will be a dragon in the end…

Sorry, is re-using textures something Blizzard wouldn't do all of a sudden?

Wasn't the chest texture datamined a few weeks ago on twitter?

Looks more like alextrazsa armor IMO

[Chickat]

Could be that you can choose an ability there a'la the current system's rows.

Or it could be that "you need this to unlock the neighboring traits."

The idea that we could live in a world with talent trees again, I'm suddenly feeling giddy. Now just give me a world revamp.

Dude what if we have dragon isles, prof revamp, dragon class, dragon race, new professions and player housing, new talent system, world revamp, and also a new delve dungeon type feature mix of islands and torghast. I think I would squirt on the spot.

I'd have rathered they just gave us Dragonmen then and not... whatever long-necked giant-winged monstrosity that is.

That's not quite the categorical debunking I was hoping for, lol. Still, it better be fake.
