Are monster races just a thing of the past? Why is everyone obsessed with Elves? I thought women wanted to dick monsters with their fantasy novels?
>>747568306was already bad in 2006Undead (humans, elves) should not be in the same faction as orcs, that they faught before. If you have non mindless undead they would realistically just be aligned with their own living relatives. Also, WoW is bad because story is tied to two alliances like major factions, but player races are also attached to them. Which means that races (or even different nations) can't easily shift alliances in the story, unless they ditch the faction war aspect. MMO bullshit as always fucking things up.
>>747568306>>747569465Also, why would naga, aka highborne elves, be in the same faction with stinky orcs or trolls they would dislike at best.
>>747568306>Are monster races just a thing of the past?they were never a thing to begin withI played classic in 2005, I remember when half the horde were just undead, and half of those undead were the females with the single "cute face" option
>>747568306fu**ies appropriated monster races and turned them into gay garbage. WoW visual updates and later races is a perfect example
>>747568306nonstandard bodytypes are a cost factor that modern business has rationalized away
>>747570410monster races need op racials to make up for the fugly the way oldschool everquest gave trolls insane regen or ogres complete stun immunity and both of those races also started with a ton of stamina (hp).
Having factions was just a bad idea to start with
>>747570035Naga were working with the Blood Elves (which were also Highborne) in WC3 and the Blood Elves joined the Horde.
Most people are boring and want their RPG protagonist to be a prettier version of themselves (or their imaginary GF/BF).
>>747568306WoW was always shit, it ruined Warcraft's lore
>>747570546You mean furrys appropriated blizzard.
>>747571646Seems more like alliance of convenience. They might be ok with Belfs, but not trolls.
>>747571517Nope.
>>747571517Having only TWO factions was a bad idea. Somehow FFXI, a game not even about PVP, understood that you need at least 3 factions so that it creates opportunities for two of them colluding against the third.
>>747571517>>7475744052 factions can work but not for this setting. At least not after WC3
>>747571517Problem was tying races (and players) to factions. Then story becomes retarded because it needs to take mmo gameplay aspects into account. Well, more so than usual.
