Why is the “human” form of the male drakthyr a blood/high elf model, and what’s worse why is the female visage rig a female human rig? One of the core alliance races. I cant imagine female human casters runing around within the horde just bad design. Instead they should have created entirely new visage forms, with new animations and poses and make them look like some half elf beings. Would give more sense since deathwing created them to be perfect.
Not to mention a race so unique that whole class was designed around the drakthyr and they can’t even show mogs? That is just ridiculous. Since when did we steep so low? This is extremly lazy aproach. They did not even have to model a female rig with own female animations, casting poses or even dances. And yet they can’t still show mogs, not even in their Tier sets that should be designed to look amazing on those dragons. They saved lot of time by lazy copy paste aproach and still failed.

this is blizzard we are talking about…
lazy is their goal.
hell the whole premise of dragon flying is stolen idea from another mmorpg.
they have been like this for years…
anything to not put the proper amount of work in …
started with recolours… and just grew from there.
and it will keep growing the longer people keep buying into it…
i said many times before…
blizzard do not have any originality anymore.
only truely original content we really get are the mounts which appear in promotions and on the store.
and you can argue even that murloc mount and bug mount are just reskins of previous mounts… with extra bits attached…
the lunar bunny mount being a darn straight rip off of the GW2 hopper mount.
it feels like when blizzard sacked a load of staff because of harassment cases… they employeed a load of EX gw2 devs… and slowly those devs are turning this game into gw2.

Incorrect?
Goblins are tiny orcs, so the fox race vulpera never have/had common with the goblins or orcs
And this is very vile and insanity when you call a “GOBLIN” to the fox race VULPERA
Because modern games are not made for player happiness but shareholder happiness. Every area is full of mindless NPC’s who just stand there and mobs and monsters and beasts just wonder around like zombies for zero reason but player pinata’s full of useless junk.

honestly after 18 years of working on the same game…
you’d probably want to cut corners too …
would you still have the same passion to create new original content??
if all you ever recieve is hatred and blacklash for your hard work??
i wouldnt…
which is why they need to sack ION… and get someone new and fresh.

the truth is out…
people now know that vulpera are really just goblins which rolled around on the hairdressers floor on a hot summers day.

The Animations, moves or dance still don´t count
Are Zandalari trolls the night elves? No
Are the Cat race Saberon the “WORGEN”? NO
Saberon have the same animations as the worgen but that doesn´t count to be reskinned
Worgen = Wolf race
Saberon = Cat
they are talking about … Mesh … they use the same rig the same wires connect their heads to toe…
the animations team did little to nothing the only thing which changed is the skin.

how long to you think it took them to create highmountain taurens??
3 months??
more like 30 seconds…
get some bluetac and a couple of foam horns … done.
EDIT: i used to make skins for another game called half-life… there was point i was knocking out new skins every 10 mins… and people loved them on the forums for the game i was playing at the time…
the work blizzard put into allied races “besides kul’tiran and zandalar trolls” was bare minimal.

Yes, Additional faults. Same it got the Nightborne and Void elves
Reskinned like them are easy to be added, Same with warlocks and monks for all races
The Draenei wasn´t easy to be added in TBC, nothing reskinned
Gilneans and Blood elves belong to human races
i dunno about this one …
but i think kul’tiran male are the same mesh as boomkin.
And I am 100% done After DF, if they won´t announce unique and original races like the Ogres, Saberon, Vrykul, Sethrak, Tuskarr, Vampire venthyrs
But Nightborne is very superior to me, because they have the stories from Warcraft 3 about Suramar, but they put into the better lore to Suramar
the Fox race vulpera has failure, they don´t have hairstyles 
Boomkin druids reuse the Ogre animations
and they excatly have the same dance

ogre or murloc or me…
i would settle for tuskar too…
but it will never happen.
Never? Ogres could be added during WoD or BFA!
Vrykul could be added after cataclysm, if blizzard could not want to put Pandaren.
And then in BFA they added Mechagnomes instead of Vrykul…
i once change the animation of the way my character of one the skins i made in half-life held his weapon from one model to another…
do you know how long it took me to change the animation…
about 15 seconds… i just copied and pasted the rig over…
yet this was the whole selling point of BFA yet the amount of work which went into it was probably all together less than 3 hours.
