    Shadowlands was the xpac for big, beefy, thuglike characters. Dragonflight is for high fantasy. I'd rather they not beef up the dragons. What they are doing is correct.

    I dont think we know the rate of customization.

    However if we had bulier alternate it would have to be females.

    One of the worst thing about warcraft is the messed up sexual dimorphism. Lizards means big women and small men.

    I for one am excited about how queer coded the humanoid forms are. U basically have headdresses, body glitter and hair dye as well as jewelry

    Romance doesnt detract from a story. Its a Genre, like horror or comedy or adventure. The game was ruined when we got Horror in drustvar or nazmir. It wasnt ruined when we had funny quests. So if you think a little man on man love ruins the game, then yes you are either a homophobe or just a spoil sport that goes "ewww kissing is yucky" like a baby. Furthermore, if a character has never expressed interest in any gender, then its not proof they are straight. straight people are not the default

    At first I thought that the Drakthyr could use changes similar to the ones in the OP. But then I decided to look at the current drake models, and you know what? The Drakthyr are perfectly in line with how a WoW drake would look if it were bipedal, which I think that was clearly the intention. Even the thin waist is because their legs are moved down, on a regular drake the legs are close to the body and mostly keep the drake's overall body width the same rather than make it bulkier.

    Is it possible to have customization on their body type? Now it looks so generic and I cannot distinguish if the character is male or female.

    Who cares? It's also rude for people selling a product to be placed above criticism about said product.

    As far as we know, no. It looks like they wanted to go with an androgynous approach for the dragon form's design.

    You’re not in the minority. I doubt the majority of players would trade what we got for Drakonoids.

    None of the aspects are orcs or gnomes(even thou Chromie is a dragon). It clashes with the lore. It doesn't take that much to figure that out.

    I personally would prefer the playable race to look like WOTLK dragonoids as suggested.
    There been dragons disguised as orcs, goblins, and even tauren. Doesn’t matter if their poppa/momma wanna go elf/human

    Surely you aren't talking about the Shadowlands that revolved around Sylvanas most of the time? Did you mean WoD?

    At which point in the presentation did it seem to you that they implied that they're gonna use more than just the Blood Elf male and Human female skeletons?

    If people don't make a big deal out of it they won't even consider it.

    If they can do two, maybe three races for Alliance and Horde appearances, I'll be a lot happier with them (like male/female human, male/female gnome, male/female night elf and male/female blood elf, male/female orc, male/female tauren). If they can add armor to the dragon form, I'll be pretty fine with everything overall.

    I think a lot of the color combinations they've shown off really, really clash. They should make sure to add more combinations that are fairly neutral and can be mixed with different things. The dark skin + neon green hair + bright blue scales one was particularly bad...

    I'd also be okay with them being bulked up a bit, appearance-wise. They do seem kind of wimpy for a "soldier race".

    This is another issue I didn't really touch on here, but you're completely right. Some of the combinations look like they just finished playing a game of Splatoon and came out covered in purple and green paint.

    I totally get wanting a genderless race, but your body "type" (male or female reproductive organs) doesn't need to dictate whether you're slender and feminine looking or more masculine looking in appearance.
    Allowing people to decide if they want to make a masculine dragon, a feminine dragon, or something completely in the middle should be a player choice as part of the customization options given IMO.
