I appeal to all players dissatisfied by the current state of the Night Elf model, to promote the mandatory need of an update. I will be relentless, but I can’t do it alone. Promote this problem on twitter, reddit, mmo-champion and other forum posts. If you want something to change, PLEASE, get actively involved!
Ash Karath!

If you are at it. Update some clipping issues with armors
Update human models as well.
at least faces/and hairstyles
maybe that could increase interest in alliance again.
Kultirans are horrible.
and almost everyone is female NE or VE

I completely agree! Especially the human male hairstyles are sloppy to say the least. I will create a discord channel for us to organize, to centralize our voices. What do you say?
I’m a bit late for the party but I 100% agree with you. I despise the look of male night elves. The gorilla hands, legs and feet, the hunchback posture, the creepy walking animation and the silly running one, the beard styles and faces and etc.
I made a night elf hunter and I regret it every time I see the character. Horrible ugly zombie like creatures. I hate the male night elf model with passion and I think they need number of changes.

They probably wanted to bring out the nelf males inner hippy.

I created a discord server with the specific purpose of gathering a list of major complaints regarding the WoD updated races. I want to compile a detailed list of player model issues that must be updated until the release of Shadowlands, especially that Blizz plans to overhaul the character customization. If you consider your character has a major issue that must be addressed, please join us so that the devs become aware of it. Only together we can spread the word and brainstorm on what is the best course of action.

Thank you

IMO the new worgen models look good. For a second I even considered making a race change (to worgen) on one of my alts. After my initial post, I took a more in depth look at the new goblin models, and I would retract the above statement
Mine has been completely abandoned. I also don’t like the fact that they can change, permanently, the character that I created, without any recourse whatsoever. You should know how that feels.
I understand your pain. Which of your chars was affected by the change?

They’re level 102, 85, 66 and 27 Worgen characters. I also certainly won’t be race-changing them. As a rule of thumb, I don’t pay to fix things that someone else has broken. Yeah, you can’t please everyone, it’s true. But what I take issue with is pulling the rug from under people with their “bottom line” approach they keep going with.
Choice or lack thereof will be the end of this game for me. They can promise the world next expansion, but I’m sick and tired of it now, tbh.

I understand your frustration. I’ve been going through something similar with my nelf since WoD. What annoys you regarding the new worgen models? The females are the most different.

I used males for Worgen… I couldn’t bear to look at the chihuahua faces. And what I don’t like is the new moving animation. Now it looks like you’re ice skating.
Every time they’ve changed something, for me, they’ve made it worse. It started when they butchered my favourite mount, horses. They used to look great, really smooth and fluid. Now they run like they’re either drunk or disabled. Or both.
Like I said, I wouldn’t care, but you’re given absolutely zero choice - you can either like it or GTFO. This should not be in a thing in a AAA RPG, period.

Thats because they are too beef. Have you seen their muscles compared to Nightborne? They are typical necks from a gym

I recently looked at the worgen male new running animation. There is a comparison between the old and new animations on wowhead. I completely agree that it looks like it’s sliding! I will add a channel on the new discord server specifically for worgen new model issues - and will post that video there. As I said, there already exists a precedent when the night elf running animation was updated a second time in WoD, based on community complaints. Join us on Tx6GrWG and we can increase our chances of these changes being implemented until Shadowlands launches.
I was about to make my own post about this, as I’m returning to the game from a long break and fancied playing my long abandoned Vanilla male Nelf druid. But the posture…the posture makes me physically wince. I can put up with the goofy, seal-flipper hands but the neck placement and slouch in the spine I just can’t get past. Ick.
Please help male Nelfs see a chiropractor or learn some Alexander technique.

I don’t blame you for playing a blood elf now…

Seems like the elves spent too much time in front of the computer, they should play outside more
