...Le Poète est semblable au prince des nuées
Qui hante la tempête e se rit de l'archer;
Exilé sul le sol au milieu des huées,
Ses ailes de géant l'empêchent de marcher.

I need moonkin options. even if it's just feather color and removal of feather ornament options.
Found this graph on the official forums with a blue reply.
It boggles my mind that a race/gender combo that is hardly played gets drastically more customization options than any other way more popular combo.
Is there a logical explanation for this? I would argue that someone who plays a male orc, is rather not inclined to meddle with cosmetic options at all.
I just don't get it.
Wouldn't it be more logical to give them to those race/gender combos who are more likely to appreciate the effort?
Simple. It’s an attempt to get more people to try the less represented combos. And that they have a better chance to get played like the rest. Less played combos presents a problem that needs fixing. More played combos don’t present themselves as problems that needs attention.
That's certainly NOT something that would cause me to come back... Who the hell cares, I play a BE female since it was possible to crate a BE hunter.
Before I stopped just before 9.1, I was still using the same skin color, haircut and haircolor from the day I created that character... All the "new stuff" from SL & BFA is just... ugly.
Fix the damn game, remove useless borowed power, update some gameplay, I dont know. But after 16 years of more of the same, I really dont know how I could come back and play this game... SL ruined the whole game for me (stupid covenant, boring farmable stuff), even worse than WoD actually

Who cares about customisation when the models are better on any recent mobile game out there.... Wow is ugly by today's standard and that won't change

Oh I'm aware. I've seen this chart before and I believe it. The poor Nightborne.. I think I literally switched between two transmogs on her the entirety of max level. As I feel a lot of armor looks incredibly bad on them. Not sure how it is for the males... been pressing a new model for a while. I don't think they will give us this.. probably not the one I keep asking for either. Which is slim thick. I mean in reality they should start making other models for races because the orcs have two separate ones. Hunch and no hunch. (Which wouldn't be bad for some other races tbh. Undead comes to mind..)By the Light fix the Nightborne properly. (Look how far down they are on this chart for customizations..)
No other race is able to have two separate models?

Can they please make more cute stuff, like draenei females. Asian cute would be awesome.
Do not make that horrible Kul Tiran female face ever again, holy shit. Everything about them are kinda cool, except that fugly face of theirs.
Any word on new heritage armors???
We've been out in the cold on that since the worgen and goblins got theirs in 9.2.5
"...but after hearing the passionate feedback around the issue..."
Reeks of desperation.
This. It's quite simple really. The races near the top really don't need much more customisation, while the ones near the bottom are sorely lacking.
I remember when the Tauren females got their new hairstyles at the start of Shadowlands, their first new hairstyles since Vanilla, there was a huge influx of new Taurens being made because the race had become more attractive to play because players could make cute cows with bangs and stuff.
Nightborne need these update sorely and it will surely improve the race's playerbase.
lol@ "Tauren hairstyle". Are you serious xD
Well, the timing could've most certainly been better, but hey, a good thing is a good thing. Good on Blizzard for hearing players out, and adding some more customization options.
It really does make no sense. I wonder what was driving the devs to make this decision.
I assume male orcs are mostly played by guys- and they will hardly waste a lot of time at the barber shop meddling with customization options. Not only that but male orc is a rather niche race/gender combo compared to other races, namely belves, nelves and humans. So it doesn't make any sense to give one niche gender/race combo all these options if they will never get any exposure. What a waste of ressources.
The attention they get from the devs is really completely out of proportion.
Do not care about Belf hairs for Velfs at all. I want more extreme VOID options for my VOID elf.
