So, Blizzard announced a new race - Drac’thyr. I understand that some people don’t like it, and when they say it doesn’t fit to the game etc. To be honest, i’m not a furry, but Worgen is my favorite race for now. I really like races, with fangs, horns, tails. That’s why i also really like Draenei or Tauren.
BUT, even if i really like concept, of the new draconic race, i think they looks kinda pitiful and wretched. Of course, they got a tail and wings, but it doesn’t make them looks more like a real dragons. They looks just like a tiny gecko on two legs with bat wings. All i want to say is, that they REALLY NEED, to work on the appearance, to make it look more mighty and powerful. Just give them posture of Draenei or something…
By the way, THIS is the great example, how it SHOULD looks like. I would really love, to play Drac’thyr looking like this:
Just look at the jaw, tail, bigger hands and feet, more wider chest and changed neck. It looks amazing and fearsome!
I wana be a big fat ugly ogre. I want to look like Rexxar without the mask.
If I want to play a pretty race, I’ll play one of the elves.
Gimme big bulky dragons! Not another bloodelf class.
In this case I’m going to have to do the opposite, and play the female to feel a little bit more manly.
There’s already a comparison image and the difference is barely noticable. They’re nowhere near as beefy as a lot of players want them to be. Also, making only the torso more bulky doesn’t help, since the entire thing is just… off. The head is small, the neck is way too long and thin, so are the limbs.
I have no issue with it so agree to disagree but do remember that it isn’t even in alpha yet. Hopefully it just will not go the same way as Worgen did.
I like how the original looks. Having people redo an existing model is not really hard to do. especially for their own likings. Give the devs a break… the models look good. Thats not another female worgen or male bloodelf duckface situation… so leave it be please
The new suggestion on dracthyrs apperance looks way better and closer to those old vanilla humanoid dragons. (sad they can’t be other classes but Ion said maybe in a future expansions they learn other classes). That black dracthyr looks close to deathwing appearance. But sure can have the slender version too. More options is better. But you know those drakthyr could be the start of making all classes more agile and blizzard will change the combat animations to update to more modern gaming combat. Yes demon hunters are more agile than rogue or warriors but maybe its time to upgrade the combat animations and mechanics for all classes. most are 17 years old combat animations and mechanics.
You what, could blizzard make a spec of the evoker class were the dracthyr combine meele and their dragon powers to buff them etc. Like a type of Retribution spec for the evoker. But they could limit it where the drakthyr can only use two handed weapons and polearms. that they are more… whats the word… well you know.
