Undead customization options

Since my old topic got locked:

@Raveneline-moon-guard

The body type and eye colors are nice and all but looking at what everyone else is getting it feels like they’re falling behind.

Tattoos, makeup, piercings, scars, beards(For the men), etc. The one race that has plenty of potential is just put on the backburner. Ahh here have this model we made for China 10 years ago, and some new eyecolors… and like 3 wacky hairstyles with nothing “moderate” in between.

Go into the wowhead dressing room for nightelves then do the same for forsaken and see the difference. They got like double the options.

So humans get new face shapes and then they die and now they all have the same face shape again? So when you die you forget how to put on makeup or put in a tattoo? Orcs get to stand straight but not forsaken even though the forsaken guards have straight posture?

Like it’s just really strange. Here’s the human female with 35+ hairstyles and the forsaken female (which is literally a human, just that died and came back) is stuck at like less than 20 hairstyles?

Here’s some stuff that could be added:

1. New face shapes to mirror what was given to their human counterparts.
2. 6+ new hairstyles for each gender to close the gap with other races.
3. Adding some new “features” in the already existing category. Jawless females, new types of forsaken unique stuff like face stitchings, bandage wraps, etc.
4. Adding in scars/burns.
5. Makeup, yes give some for the guys too. You give them Chris Angels haircut but not the eyeliner and stuff?
6. Deciding on your idle pose like orcs, stand straight or hunched.
7. Changing ear shape. You can be an undead half elf or highelf just by changing the ear shape. Such a simple thing to add. Making the forsaken feel more like the proper “forsaken” race they are in lore and not just “dead humans”.
8. Tattoos, that go on the face and body… probably the least important option but would be nice to have. Their literal faction icon is a face with a face tattoo on it.

Edit:

Noticed some people on twitter ended up doing their own ideas. Blizzard should be hiring these people imo.

Edit #2:

New straight posture for forsaken is already in the game? Just not being used or available to players? Looks nice wish I could use it. Even has a walk cycle.

This was my bare minimum expectation.

Wake up Blizzard and put some makeup.!

Oh and I will put this one here also

why are all undead humans ?
there is undead elves ( dark rangers )
also undead gnomes even

[Tuffz-earthen-ring]

Beards too please

A posture choice and make up would be my favorite additions.

Whether we like Calia or not, she is Canon, and a whole expansion about Death where we learn much more about Domination magic give plenty of chance to reconsider the undead race and the attitude of every other race towards them.

Heck. They accept DKs… It has clearly already been proven not all undead need to miss parts and rot. Although it is cool that some do, of course.

I hope that your requests will be taken into account, especially the upright posture which I find interesting.

That video is brilliant!

[Palyst-quelthalas]

more customizations for all races is a good thing imo so I support this. <3

@Brady-archimonde

the upright posture which I find interesting.

It’s a good start indeed. If orcs have it already… (applies to male trolls as well)

@Raveneline-moon-guard

So humans get new face shapes and then they die and now they all have the same face shape again?

Makes sense, if I was killed and ressed as an undead I’d likely keep most of my looks intact, applying to any race that can be risen. Look at Sylvanas or Calia. (So worgen-specific features don’t really play here lore-wise as they can’t become forsaken from the curse.)

[Benjamin-sunstrider (Benjamin)]

Blizzard reads all topics except the ones with Undead word.

[Watrus-argent-dawn (Watrus)]

Give us the elf ears.

[Ayarne-argent-dawn]

I don’t play Forsaken, but I really hope you guys get these changes. Makes more sense than high void elves and princesses as this actually part of being a Forsaken. You were someone before this “life” and now you are a clone

[Twiggz-bloodhoof]

rather have height and weight sliders tbh than anything mentioned by anyone else in any other customisation thread…

still wouldn’t make me play the game again though.
