Lets correct that for you. “I Don’t see them as Furries” Which is fine, that is purely your opinion. I don’t personally see them as furries either, but then I don’t see Vulpera as furries either. They also aren’t ‘cutesie’ as anyone who has encountered an urban fox can testify, proper vicious little swine they are.
So I have a Blood Elf character? So what, they’re ripped as hell, having an MMA cage fighter or Olympian athlete build. Also fun fact about those quests. Every time we see a different race, Forsaken, Human and -amusingly- Orc so far, it is always the other race that seems confused about their sexuality when it comes to the Blood Elf, never the other way around. Bad example.
He neither likes or dislikes spending time around Orcs, he’s pretty non-racist for an Elf, apart from Amani of course, they can all die in a fire. He -is- a little Blood Elf however, being only 5’5" tall, short for a male, but kind of ‘Pit bull terrier’ in that he is gnarly, with his height.
Never said they didn’t.
Err, I think you’ll find that despite the fact we always used to mock the quality of food in the forces, it was perfectly full of nutrition and everything needed to keep us on peak performance. I mean…it would be madness for the forces to deliberately -not- provide food that keeps its fighting men and women at key ability.
Generalising much? Depends on the character concept you’re going for, and nothing more, and I know plenty of women who play male characters, and men who play female characters. My Stormwind Foot(wo)man is female, also a boxing champ and pretty buff. You can’t generalise and say “All dudes want to play big burly men, and all women want to play pretty little princesses”
How on earth do you derive ‘saying they’re a lesbian’ from that? This isn’t about the Sex of the character, but their Aesthetics.
Well I already did? I mean I did say with their tendency for leather harnesses some orcs look like they hang around in certain types of establishments for gentlemen who prefer other gentleman, which there is nothing wrong with, so projecting the ‘All Vulpera are Furries hurr hurr’ motif is very much throwing stones in glass houses, when you even have an Orc Vendor in Orgrimmar selling leather harnesses for all your BDSM club needs
Actually, not always the case at all. Size and muscles actually is not the factor, and a skilled opponent who is wiry is perfectly capable of besting a larger, more muscled and equally skilled opponent, which again, going back to it, you can see in MMA cage fights.
For the same reasons you claim Vulpera are? You have this idea in your head that they are designed for the furry ‘uwu’ market, so why is it not reasonable for me to have in my head this idea that Tauren and Orcs are designed for a certain demographic that likes its men big and burly?
Never a good look to use words snatched from Twitch or Urban Dictionary and apply them incorrectly. It is like people using the word ‘literally’ when what they mean is not actually ‘literal’ in the slightest. Try and express it using correct language. I mean the word ‘Cope’ means either ‘To be able to withstand a situation successfully’ or ‘a small cloak worn by priests and bishops during ceremonial duties’. So I don’t see where you were going with that.
I’ve read a lot of novels written by women, and seen TV shows produced by them, and films produced by them yes. Some were great, some were ‘meh’ and some were garbage. So same as those written by blokes, basically.
Ahah… Right, the response to that is “Who cares what streamers do?”
Only the easily impressed, swayed or fans of them anyway.
Because Kul’tiran’s aren’t? Which is a shame.
Did you just type something that looks like it could have come from Donald Trump’s Twitter account? (When he had one).
Yeah but that doesn’t matter. Intellectually if the Vulpera are based on something, but not everyone knows about the original thing, does that make them more or less cool? To put that into context, let’s say you had never heard of the Minotaur. Would Tauren in WoW be more or less cool because of that fact?
Sighs Yet again…
The Fox, in Western legend has long been associated with several aspects, it is a cunning trickster who always escapes. This is why when Disney brought out their Animated cartoon ‘Robin Hood’ they ascribed those qualities to, well, ‘Robin Hood’ and depicted him as a Fox. He’s essentially a Vulpera, a walking talking, cunning scavenger Fox person. Fox people also exist in Japanese legends as the Kitsune, and the Korean legends, they spring further afield, being powerful creatures in Native American legends, and also feature in Eskimo legends.
Everywhere, the same traits are ascribed to these Fox-People, which is cunning, tenacity and being something of the trickster.
You can google it yourself, there are huge, huge references to the place of Mythological Fox people in our legends and stories.
I’m not sure you’ve played many fantasy games, have you? A Pandaren looks like a permanently shifted Werebear. What is so difficult to grasp about that? I mean even the Orc and the Human in the MoP cinematic refer to it as ‘a bear in a hat’ (Before anyone says ‘ackshually Panda are not related to bears, but racoons’ I know that, but people in WoW think they look like bears)
Also you can generally tell when someone is loosing their point when they post that silly clown emoji, because it is a really stupid emoji that fails to convey it’s meaning, it makes it look like what you just said was stupid and just joking around?
I surely do like to think they are…
Well you seem to know all about what appeals to the Furry market, so hows about you answer your own question?
Do please try to read what is said in context…If you had, you would have grasped that I was being sarcastic…
