Did they finally fix Night Elf female faces?

I was trying out the night warrior eyes for my druid on wowhead in their dressing room mode and it seems as if all the night elf female faces look slightly different? More mature and without bug eyes and blocky heads, mouths look more detailed and the face more elongated and angular, nicer around the eyes as well. I love every single one, can someone confirm if there really was some kind of change? :star_struck:

(I know because there’s this one night elf face that I absolutely can’t stand and I couldn’t find it in their dressing room app? :slight_smile: )

I’ve never noticed NE faces being bugged ever since I’ve been playing.

Maybe I should’ve clarified, a lot of people didn’t like their rework back in WoD when we got the new “and improved” models, it was in my opinion a downgrade. I suppose people have grown used to them lately, but I still remember the displeasure lol. They just never felt right to me, looked like a rush job (in a sense that they didn’t really resemble the originals at all). In the wowhead dressing room however they look different from what we have in game right now. Am I just imagining things?

I came back at the end of the legion and quit after wow so never really noticed that much of a difference :stuck_out_tongue:

I think I know what you mean, the HD Nightelf faces in the dressing room look better and more grown up than the ingame ones.
Sadly, ingame nothing has changed, we still look like sassy 17year olds =(

I kinda hoped it was coming with the extra customization option of night warrior faces in the next patch? :crossed_fingers:

Fingers crossed, I would love that too, but I have no source of information about updated/fixed nelf faces in 8.1, just the Night Warrior option so far.

Someone correct me if I am wrong or not up to date ~

I did a comparison side by side by picking the same faces in game and in wowhead tool and they look so different:

I like that tbh.

Great shot, it looks so much better and nails the amazones theme so much more.

Oh that’s fine, for myself I find they ruin the immersion of what nelf females are supposed to be quite a bit.
But in general many races are designed a bit too cute for what they are in lore, from Nelf to Tauren to Orc and so on.

If you trust the Wowhead thing for faces, which I don’t, that’s even worse - a farther departure from the original.

Here’s the thing about wowhead model viewer, it doesn’t change the shape of the face, while faces in game do change shape.
