Famelic lizards form is final, DF release date announced

[hulkgor]

Yes, i am going to play a Dracthyr Evoker.

[Auburst]

This is very much on point.

Got into the beta so I figured I might as well compare while looking at Drac ability's.





Drac's are plenty big/masculine as is if you go for body 4

Those are some girly thighs. Reminds me of some reimagined Dracthyr posts showing differences between male and female bodies.




All current Dracthyr options look more feminine than masculine.

[Teriz]

They don't have Hulk's propotions, so for certain crowd they're too small to feel comfortable with.

I'm beginning to get the impression that some folks here wanted to play as a traditional Drakonoid that could be a standard class (boring!), instead of being a dragon with the powers of the aspects, which is what we got instead.

There thigh's don't look any girlier then humans/night elf's so I guess if those look girly to you then no alliance race other then Kt and goats could ever be any thing other then feminine.

They look more like D&D kobolds though

Kobolds are related to Dragons in D&D, so that's not surprising. You're also talking about an entirely different gaming universe. Kobolds are wingless and 2ft tall. Dracthyr have huge wings and are 8-9ft tall.

[Auburst]

Girly thighs now? Maybe yall just hella insecure lol

Nah.

There thigh's don't look any girlier then humans/night elf's so I guess if those look girly to you then no alliance race other then Kt and goats could ever be any thing other then feminine.

Their thighs are fuller than that of human male. As for male male Night Elves, their models are fucked. It is a known issue. People often ask for changes for them.

I mean this is the same sort of people who think BE males look girly despite having bodies that put most professional athletes, and 99.99% of the people playing WoW, to shame. Anything other than a roid raging pile of muscle with no neck is feminine, it seems.

Now I do have issues with Dracthyr myself; the Visage form doesn't look great especially the faces, the armors aren't cool enough for me, they lack fangs and other menacing features as options, and their heads are too small which is exacerbated if you go for body type 4. I think Blizz could have done a better job. But with some tinkering in the character creator you can still make them look quite good.

It is just the way they look, it simply screams kobold or lizardmen, not dragon.

It's proportions not muscles but nice try.

So there girly because they have fuller thighs? because the picture you posted for male Drac's has way fuller thighs then humans or ingame Dracs.

Ya I'm really not a Fan of how the male visage form looks tried to mess around with it but didn't like any of the results, Would also really like visible fangs and such for the dragon form and some horn size customization as alot of the horns I like are to big or small.

In relation to waist and shoulders yeah.

[Nerph-]

I know for a fact you dont have beta lol. And neither does @arkanon
Nothing of what you both say is true for DF.

You are the CEO of being wrong then, as I do have beta.

[Gimlix]

Chances are high i wont play DF - i honestly dont think im the target audience anymore - fluffy cute little races and now creepy feminine looking snake things being called dragons, all the changes to the core gameplay loop - none of its for me. I have no issue that there are some who are loving it and really happy, but its just not for me.

HOWEVER, to properly answer your question more directly, no, if it wasnt clear enough already i absolutely would NOT play them, i honestly think they look like mobile game bullshit. I also would never kick someone from my group or abuse them simply for liking things i dont like, but i personally wouldnt go near one.

Good this game and website can use less of those negative boomers anyways.

[Uk Lok-Narash]

I will play one just to experience the starting zone. I honestly don't like the model and the class really doesn't interest me at all.

Though, I said this about Pandas when MoP came out and I ended up maining a Panderan Monk half of MoP so

What really throws me off is the no showing of gear you get and lack of transmog.

[Aleksej89]

Visually they look lame and frankly feels like some malicious message pushing/signaling that you at all can't tell whats male and whats female via physical appearances.
Excuse me, i meant tell whats "body 1" and whats "body 2" via physical appearances... though why cant we remove bras from "body 2" is a really odd visual bug in games...
Not being able to show equipped items also sucks, but its a cost saving thing for blizzard since they dont have to make item models properly fit on dragon body models.

Their lack of casting range is also a huge turn off for me... healers being constantly out of range is awful, especially in disorganized raids (pve or pvp).
Blizzard might end up overbuffing their power to compensate for lower range (worse uptime) but that will likely create more problems, especially in naturally narrow environments.
Also lack of a melee spec is just wtf...

Overall feels like a really wasted opportunity, a dragon race that looks lame and a dragon class that already looks like something i dont enjoy.

[dragonflight10]

Forum people are idiots, so I suspect yes they did.

Also they are very delusional
idk why they think their ideas are good and blizz should implement them

[Lolites]

1/ When I think of dragon, I think of might, power and size.

well they are not dragons... they are derived from them sure, but not dragons - to me this is kinda like expecting taurens to have 4 hooved legs instead of arms as they are derived from cows
and since they are casters only i actualy prefer them to be "small, thin, goofy" than a goddamn mountain of muscles some people want...
if they had other classes (which would be my preference) sure, lets make "the big dude" an option but for pure casters it feels weird...

2/ Armor don't display on them. I mean, what the fuck is going on Blizzard ?

hard to argue with this one

Dracthyr and wow dragons have little in common.

so do tauren and wow cows... that might be bcs tauren are not cows and dracthyr are not dragons...

yep, seems like some people never met real people, let alone women...

[Teriz]

It is just the way they look, it simply screams kobold or lizardmen, not dragon.

To be fair, lizards don't have wings either.

Dracthyr are simply bipedal dragons. Bipedal dragons is a concept that isn't alien to fantasy.

Tauren are closer in appearance to bisons than cows. They are based on minotaurs anyway. Dracthyr are supposedly playable humanoid dragon representation but look more like lizard people.
