I was reading an article a while back (will link if I find it) that spoke of how dwarves were generally quite popular... LotrO, Warhammer and similar games usually had them in the top 3 races, and in some cases more popular than elves.
However in wow, they just aren't, their popularity is really really low.. why is that? In Warcraft they've had a lot of development when you think of the dwarf zones, instances, patch focuses, and the role they've played throughout the Warcraft story, and always have characters from their race involved, like the Bronzebeards, yet they just haven't been that popular here, and I can't figure out why.
Any idea or thoughts why this is the case for Warcraft?
