Instead of "Dracthyr", we should just get player-sized Dragons

[MrCool]

It would be ridiculous if they made them look completely badass. Like, “oh you can be this elf or you can be this mega buff, huge sick looking dragon fuck that looks like he could eat any other race.”

Cosmetic balance. It’s not like you have to stay in dragon form - or even play one. You people are making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Yeah some people forgot this is a MMO where balance is expected between races and classes (unless it's a P2W unlock races/classes garbage)

I find it hilarious that people think others cares so much about the appearance of the race at all. I promise you when I’m playing I’m going to be seeing wings in my peripheral vision and that’s it. I care about how it plays not looks. Are y’all just sitting there staring at your character as your doing content one handed?

Wtf does this even mean? They aren’t going against any art style with dracthyr. And they don’t have a set art style at all haha what in the actual hell does this even mean you guys are coming up with some really wack shit to say just because you dislike how it looks

You know, things that you said would be truth for almost any fantasy mmo, but here in wow you forgot that Humans and ELFS without armor look more buff than Arnold Schwarzenegger, rule of cool already there: Like, “oh you can be this gnome or you can be this mega buff, huge sick looking Elf or Human caster with pack abs fuck that looks like he could beat face of any other race.”

Body of ordinary mage or warlock:

O guy who still not unlocked transmog option... ye dude there is whole collection of armor. (ofc if you not Druid or freak that loves mail armor)

Ouch buddy, ouch.

Except not every race has those proportions. Night Elves and Trolls for example are quite slim. The Dracthyr aren’t hulking creatures, their slim with a decent amount of musculature for their height. While they’re not built like Arnold, they’re definitely built like a buff basketball player.

Also their visage form is as buff as Elves and humans.

Their body build is even worse than that of male humans. Bottom heavy, narrow shoulders skinny ass bitches. They look like something Neltharion would reject and put in cum jar to marinate. If there's a race that should have those proportions then it's a dragon inspired one.

[Claymore]

People are OBVIOUSLY going to care about race appearances. To insinuate that it "doesn't matter" is laughable.

Also, the idea that Blizzard shouldn't improve their appearance because it might be "too cool" is utterly ridiculous.

Like I said, if Blizzard wants them to be humanoid, then they can damn well add the ability to wear clothes. Or if they don't want them to wear clothes, then give them options to look much more draconic. But there is literally no justification for this weird middle-ground.

Yep. One or the other. I actually like the Drac'thyr design, but it requires the transmog system for me to actually personalize it. And if the model makes transmog impossible? Then there's no reason to have a muted humanoid design; they should give us actual traditional WarCraft dragons.

You're absolutely disgusting, do yourself a favour and stop playing WoW it's obviously NOT for you anymore.

Anyone who thinks a Dracthyr looks like an Elder Scrolls Argonian really needs to go get their eyes checked.

[Jekyll]

I'm not comfortable with the idea of erping as dragon size human. That's like beastiality. Humanoid dragons is more palatable.

At first I really couldn't tell if you were being serious when posting shit like this while also using a twink, fujobait anime character (in one of his particularly twink-y outfits) cropped from literal yaoi as your avatar. But at this point I have to assume it's all projection and the reason you are obsessively lashing out by spam posting the same thing over and over is because you're a deeply ashamed furry. After all, no one else is having weird, extremely degenerate fantasies about dragons and semen.

I hope you find a way to move past your self-hatred and seek a more healthy outlet for your weird fetishes than repressing and projecting.

Probably why it's failing so hard. Time to make it me positive again.

You are right, Soythyr actually look worse than Elder Scrolls Argonians.

I chose this avatar because of the composition.

The joke is 'to bathe in testosterone' to make them look manlier. Twink? Fujobait? Yaoi? Fantasies? Thanks for this 'how to project while accusing others of projection 101' tho.

The irony here is that you're so lacking in self-awareness and basic critical thinking that you don't understand that your solution to having your projecting pointed out was to double down and project about the projection. I do appreciate you proving my exact point though, and again, hope you manage to sort out whatever weird personal feelings have kept video game dragons rent free in your head for two full months.

Self awareness and basic critical thinking you say... Yes, there's an irony here. These projections definitely aren't suffering from anemia considering all the circles they make. Thank you and I extend all the best wishes! Hopefully Blizzard will sort out this abominable model and give players more than a soy to chug.

[Gumble]

I'm sorta amused at the fight between 3 people with sexualized, animated, female avatars arguing over who has the biggest issues. Its just amusing.


As far as the thread, lets hope Blizzard is using the short amount of time they have afforded themselves to give everyone the type of playable dragons they could want in a customizable way that makes everyone go "ok that works for me".

The fact they have released so very little and aren't trying to show things off yet makes me wonder if they are hard at work trying to salvage their offering.

We shall see.

At this point I do agree that Dracthyr don’t really look a lot like Elder Scrolls Argonians.

Because Argonians look better.

No Dracthyrs look better than Elder Scrolls Argonians.

This thread gotta keep going on for a while!

At the very least, Argonians know what they are and realize that vision.

If that’s what you prefer, you’re never going to be satisfied by WoW’s version of a dragon race, because Blizzard would never allow a playable race in WoW to look like an Arogonian.

I think it’s best for you to move on.

[Nightshade711]

because Blizzard would never allow a playable race in WoW to look like an Arogonian.

Idk man.
Googling “Argonian with wings” brings me awfully Dracthyr-esque results.
Only difference is that those argonians wear armor and actually have some muscle mass which is what lets them take the cake.

If the Dracthyr actually had muscle like “perfect soldiers” would, and/or actually had more draconic facial features instead of looking soft then maybe they’d be better.

Like this for faces:


Throw that in with a slightly bulkier body type, and you’ve got a good race.

[Ielenia]

Why not?

And what do you mean, exactly, by "look like an argonian"?
