…perfectly fine, if that’s what floats people’s boats, but I would like to see Blizzard offer some options for those who prefer the other side of the spectrum. The “I crawled out of my grave and left half of my body stuck to the coffin” side. Here are some things I would like to see that could be used to make zombies look even nastier:
- Hanging/missing jaws for female Forsaken. Especially the options with the tongue. Everyone loves a little tongue.
- A jaw-less option but with nasty sharp teeth.
- Option to have no nose. Seriously, I heard it’s the first part my cat will eat after I die.
- My Hair Is Falling Out Because I’m A Corpse hairstyles! Especially for the zombie ladies, since the gentleghouls have some already.
- Cracked/sawn-off cranium with nasty grey icky brain visible!
- SKELETON FACE
- Half-normal half-skeleton face, because variety is the spice of life.
- You know what? Maybe a skeleton option, period.
You thought Blizzard turning people into fruit was odd? Wait until you see them turn people into bread in the Chinese version! - One eye hanging out. Or both eyes hanging out.
- Frankenstein-style bolts sticking out of their temples! (Wight model in game has those.)
- Nasty, rotten, pointy ears BECAUSE EVERY RACE NEEDS A HIGH ELF CUSTOMIZATION AYYYYY okay for real, like 90% of Thalassian elves are dead and a good chunk of them is undead. I’d love to play an undead elf that doesn’t look like your typical Barbie But Pale—I mean, Blood Elf Death Knight. I already got one of those.
- Stitches option for body+face. Maybe even a few “stitched” skintones which have a bit of color variety between different parts. Absolutely iconic for a zombie.
- Toggle: flies! Enable flies flying around your character. A zombie classic. Maldraxxi abominations have these.
You will notice that with some of these options I focus on female models more than the male ones. I feel like Blizzard has this weird thing where they notoriously make the female characters look less nasty/monstrous than the male options, and I don’t like it. The fact my female zombie can’t have a missing jaw while the male ones can prance around with their stuff hanging out and freely billowing in the wind is sad. Equality in grossness! I want people to see my zombie and wish she stayed in the coffin.
