Its why i made a whole story about it, not that its HOW it could happen, its just one of the many examples of how it could be possible to have them as “good guys” you know like how forsakens are “good guys” but i mean also, most of the races have problems with the burning Legion and Sargeras, and Kil’jaeden/Archimonde, the man’ari we will get are agaisnt these things and no longer part of the Legion. As i said they were manipulated by Sargeras/Kil’jaeden
But i mean, its like the dark iron in a way, they were slaves to Ragnaros (even if they were still evils like really) and now they are playable.
I mean, as the dh above said, alliance already have 2 eredars races, and also, what you say is like if i said that trolls and elves should never be in the same faction…
You fought the Legion not the eredars thats different, and some eredars do help you in fightning the Legion (one in rogue class hall)
Also, i never said they should happen during DF, but even in DF it could be possible, remind me what was the link between bfa and the mag’har orcs…but anyway i never said it was for DF lol, i said in the future.
Then as i said, i never said it was for DF, you again claim things, i think you missunderstand things.
Simple answer NO. More elaborated answers is there : Firstly the way “new races” were added via customization since Shadowlands was too much lacking to support a full man’ari vibe for players, because the man’ari are not simply “red draenai” they are more than just that, they are different in the way they talk (their voice sound different when you aggro them, when they get wounded etc, sounding lot more demonic) and it would be very weird and silly to sound like a regular cute draenai girl when you attack with your man’ari look.
Secondly, they don’t have just their skin different but also their eyes, and more importantly, their “naaru symbol” that they have atop their front head is not the same, for the man’ari who joined Sargeras in the beginning they have no symbol of the naaru at all and thoses who joined later (called the Sargeirai) have a fel green symbol, this was never supported by the customization that we got recently, because, when you look at for example the dark ranger, what did we get exactly? ONE eye color that go ONLY with ONE skin tone while the LF draenai do have the possibility of customizing their naaru symbol (while regular draenai cant ><) not to mention, man’ari have a very good veriety of skin tones, dark blue, dark, red, orange, purple, grey, green to mention only these and from we saw with skin tones added with customization for let say troll, we got ONE skin to be a sand troll and ONE to be a dark troll…yay.
Another issue are the racial, do you really imagine a man’ari use gift of the naaru to heal? That makes 0 sense, and myself i would just feel it as vibe killing…
Now the other problem with man’ari customization for draenai would also be that it would harm the draenai race itself, like you would have draenai looking like man’ari and all good, man’ari with blue eyes too, or man’ari with blue gift of naaru, or draenai with fel naaru symbol on top of head a lot of messy things…not to mention you would have man’ari without having a warlock class for regular draenai? Do you imagine the problem if draenai got to be warlock? Or the man’ari not to be warlock ><
To conclude on the topic of “allied race would be better than customizarion” i will add one more point, is that, if you take for example the mag’har orcs, if you take the dark iron dwarves these 2 races have something more than customization could bring if they were just customization for regular orcs and dwarfs, and that little something else more is called “Flavor” customization as good as they might be, lack flavors because due to how blizz put it in, with no way of changing voice lines, no way of changing racial looks etc it remainsdull.
I dont believe i have to quotes myself for the 3rd time on this topic.
