Patch 9.2 Mounts and Creature Models

[Nefastus]

People need to stop saying this there is no double standard they haven’t touched the succubi at all nor have they changed any of the other escort esc Npcs in game they just added make versions as well.

The only thing have have actually been changed was two pictures and some npc names that’s not a double standard.

Double standards because the "male" equivalent is almost naked but its okay because its a dude. Same aplies to the bowl of fruit paintings. Women bad is the new rule.

The succubi is literally wearing a thong and push up bra all she has extra is a single plate over her ribs and that plate has be part of the design since 2005.

Also no other women have been changed other then the pictures Alex is still in a thong, Shivarra are still dressed as belly dancers whitemane is still in just her tabard, ect.

There is no woman bad just two specific pictures bad.

"Hey what should we do for a council boss based on prototype versions of these figures players barely know or care about?"
"Just give them robot legs and arms and stick a re-textured version of their heads on top, that should be enough."

Also that new incubus is both humorous and offends me, not even the Succubi get to have their glorious abs exposed! Clearly that needs to be rectified.

Yeah, the foolish people were saying that the model wasn't changed in any way shape or form, while in fact Sucucbus was indeed changed two times - and it's just simply wrong saying that they didn't change it any way.

Are you being willfully ignorant that the topic revolves around the attire and perceived "sexiness" of the succubus model compared to the incubus? The attire hasn't changed in any way shape or form over the past 16 years so you can take your "sign of the times"/"guess you only started playing in Legion" bullshit elsewhere.

Like Lorgar pointed out, both the male and female models are highly sexualized. Trolls on this forum make it seem like the latter is essentially in a burqa.

The incubus is in a speedo with the crotch covered up and the succubus is in a bikini with the upper midriff covered up. There's no double standard here. "Women bad is the new rule"? What a fucking joke...

Not really. They clearly did add midriff... and changed the model.

I don't give a damn what other people think without expressing it, the "any way share or form" is just purely wrong and you cannot advocate that in any possible way. I mean, it's not so hard to comprehend a simple sentence.

Sylvanas model needs some work. And maybe a different story direction that doesn't dress her in rags.

Would be a joke if Blizz wasnt going full woke. From the painting removals, to flirts (even silly ones such as the blood elf male) to character name changes... Sucubus is definitly more clothed, there is no denying. Her original was actually in a bikini. Current one is using an armor (that is an armor). Plus it doesnt make sense the new dude doesnt wear any armor at all but whatever.

“Blizz going full woke” is the dumbest excuse when you’re talking about a design that’s over 15 years old. The succubus attire hasn’t changed since Vanilla. It’s also completely irrelevant that the pieces appear as armor when they’re little more than a thong and bra. Clearly the intent is more for sexiness than utility.

Blizzard is going full woke but not because of that, let me explain it better. Its going for everything else. Besides her model did get change to a more clothed one, no matter if its 1 year or 500 years. Also I dont know how you see that as a thong (looks more like a diaper or at least very regular a metal panties) and the uper armor as a bra. Guess you have a very seletive vision case.

Oh, and dromedaries, same genus, different spicies from what are commonly named "camels" (the 2-humped ones)

Where are you from? I have never in living across New Zealand, Australia and Europe for twenty-five years heard anyone suggest that Bactrian camels are commonly called “camels” while dromedary camels are not.

Running a Google image search for the word “camel” returns about an equal Bactrian/dromedary split; the Wikipedia article for “camel” lists dromedaries first, and notes that 94% of camels in the world are dromedary camels. When I think “camel” my mind immediately goes to an image of a dromedary, and Bactrian camels to my mind are an (awesome) oddity.

In fact, even the word camel etymologically comes from Arabic or Phoenician gāmāl, referring to the animals that Arabs and Phoenicians knew—dromedary camels. Were Bactrians the origin of the word camels would instead probably be called something descending from their indigenous names: tüye or töö.

Are you possibly from Central Asia or China? I am genuinely interested to know where in the world Bactrians are the default “camel”

Spain, here "camellos" are the 2 humped ones, and "dromedarios" the 1 humped.

That is fascinating. Thanks!

What the hell is that succubus? Im pretty sure it would only seduce men, it looks gay af.

- - - Updated - - -

Remove her midriff armour, completely remake her boobs so they don't look like two orbs that they just glued onto her body. Give her abs more definition, make her arms a tiny bit bigger so they don't look like sticks. Rework her legs and make her thighs larger and add more definition to them and her butt.

You must be an alpha male.

[Magnificent Madmartegan]

First thing that popped in my mind when I saw the snail mount was "The NeverEnding Story"!! Gotta get one of those!!

[Eggroll]

I'm happy they're finally doing an updated Cheetah model.

At the same time I'm sad it looks nothing like a cheetah at all really apart from having spots. Some times I wonder if they ever even look at reference models.

Exactly my thoughts, not impressed by the cheetah model. Looks nothing like the old one.

Kinda like with the new female nelf character models. Completely unrecognizable from the original.

I love seeing Sylvanas without her armor, but... I kinda hate her hairstyle. I would imagine they would go for something more messy. Also, her hair is parted on side and not in the middle? Don't do this to me, she looks like wet rat.

I certainly hope we use her knowledge of the Jailer in the last raid and then put her in the deepest prison and throw away the key.

[Tupolew519]

YEs! Now ylvia's more beautier than before especially without her hood.

[Jinpachi]

You simply dont know that lol

Do you always laugh at statements you make? No shit I don't know that 100%. But the post was cheesy af, and I'm pretty good at spotting shill posts. I'd say with 95% certainty that it's shillposting

Also no other women have been changed other then the pictures Alex is still in a thong, Shivarra are still dressed as belly dancers whitemane is still in just her tabard, ect.

There is no woman bad just two specific pictures bad.

Until both the incubus and the succubus wears exactly the same clothing it will be a hypocrisy.
So they should either give the incubus armor on top too or remove the succubus' armor.

Ya, no. that’s not how human society’s or sexual dimorphism work.
