I don’t get this reasoning though, sure they aren’t and it’s true. But it’s also as if you tried to tell everyone: “Hey, we’re unique too!”
Nah, humans don’t need that. They’re good enough as they are even if they weren’t children of vrykul and all that.
The tropes of every race in WoW are as old as the hills at this point, why is everyone stuck in the mire of constantly arguing x is more generic than y
But they are unique, dude. They’re devolved titan construct vikings with abnormal body shapes who wield magic and fight extra-dimensional threats with flying airships and tanks. They have tidesages and magiocratic floating cities and an cockney offshoot who turn into worgen. They’ve got great villains like Arthas and heroes like Uther and Lothar.
They have a massive impact on the universe and putting them down as just humans is honestly selling yourself and your character short imho.
Pandaren get to delve neck deep into Chinese inspirations, though.
Humans do not.
So hah, ‘humans can do everything’ crowd.
And animetastic human ‘master monk’ alts need not apply.
No, what I said isn’t: “they aren’t”. What I said is, that they’d still be just good enough if they haven’t got all of that. My gripe with races is, that when blizzard goes out to create something unique, they literally go tryhard and begin to infuse races with light/void/super power. All for the sake of having snowflakes that are supposed to be muh more interesting than the rest or something along these lines.
It’s… ew.
The humans are coming to appropriate and homogenise Pandaren culture and there’s nothing you can do about it. It is the fate of all Alliance races.
don’t they also have a different fur type altogether, and war paint, etc?
Why would they add helves twice? just play horde.
I hate you x2
Not if we get them first. 
Delete human monks, thanks.
That’s hot but I asked why he choose one. And his answer was he can make a more “boring” one to an interesting one which is a good reason. Since a lot of people fail to do that and then have the most boring and bland personalities in their characters.
Simple facts, every race has potential for really bad and bland characters when played by people who lack imagination to do anything interesting with what they were given
WoW humans do have alot of things going for them that can make it interesting. The only 
thing I find in their lore is the "Human Potential"™ trope used in nearly every western fantasy setting ever.
But it also gets a little dull when a large portion of human roleplayers just go " deus vult medival knights with superiourity complex, also that Garithos character is cool, ill rp that." Which in itself is probably one of the weakest aspects in WoW human lore, both in terms of interest but also noteworthyness of their history.
Humans are only good as Death Knights.
You: Garithos archetype
Me, an intellectual: Uther archetype
Get out Miss Scourge.
As someone whose rp chars are mostly human, I find that I pick them because a human in warcraft is quite different than an IRL human, and they just fit well with the class that I picked for them ( paladin and death knights). I did delve into Dark Iron rp a bit along the Sons of Thaurissan, and that’s fun too, but well, I guess I just like the humans in WoW. Seeing them pitted against all these other races who are indeed better than them in most things.
I personally like to think that the humans just manage to persevere is because there’s just such a darn lot of them compared to the other races. I can understand the people who dislike ‘Human Potential’ though, it -is- getting a bit much in WoW.
I think you and I will get along just fine.
Truly Redpilled.
Can’t argue with that. There’s a reason they have a diplomacy racial.
Speaking of ‘Human Potential Gone Too Far’, the greatest offender is definetly the A Little Patience scenario.
Not played in Mists, mind providing me with a tl;dr of what happened there?
