    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.

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

    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.

    If you just give me those talents and a full 1-60 EK/Kalimdor revamp I would be satisfied at this point.

    That's somehow both a low bar and an insanely high bar at the same time now.

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.
    Even with "cookie cutter" specs, it was very rarely a balance issue as much as game breaking scaling or a fundamental design choice. See Affliction not scaling with secondary stats in TBC. These types of situations from classic and TBC aren't going to be an issue because the fundamental class design has shifted. Everything is balanced "close enough" right now. It's silly to think everything won't be balanced "close enough" with more choices.

    How confident are we that Axaron and Scaleface are different people?

    Guessing right is not the same as having insider information.

    Not heritage armor, no. That's kind of the point of heritage armor. It's not even a recolor: Its literally the same armor.

    I love it when wow gives us things no one asked for.

    That's not the same armor. Neither in color or textures.

    They talk very differently. It's obvious English isn't Scalefaces first language.

    I'm really liking the look of these potential talent changes. I've been wanting something like that for years. Not sure what I think about these playable dragon fellas. Overall the hype is here.

    I don't think it's all that bad. The animations will make or break it. And of course, we literally know nothing about the race. The whole "The dragon form is just a proc" seems likely based on the clothing that dragon is wearing .

    About as confident that their leaks are real. So, not at all. Maybe 10%?
