They gave dwarf women beards before trolls got them...

By the way, to fix the whole Naga transformation, fighting, mounting and customization for armor. They can literally do what they did for the Dracthyr, where the Naga form will only use armor you get when you customize it, but their “visage“ form would be more of a scaly tendril nightelf.

Having the Naga as a playable race would be pretty sweet; maybe they could switch between legs and tails, perhaps for a racial speed boost ability akin to the Worgen's "Running Wild" racial ability.

I would absolutely love to change my fury warrior to a Vrykul!

What players have been asking for to get for 15+ years: - High Elves - Ogres - Amani/forest trolls - Vrykul - Tuskars What we likely be given by Danuser: - Original furry race - Original scalie race - Underwhelming existing race - Lore breaking/nonsensical race - Wish version of the race we actually wanted (drakthyr/void elves instead of Drakonoids/High elves).

I got my mind on Amani. And Amani on my mind.

IO want more races to be Druids and shaman with all the elemental and dream stuff it should allow more race combos for these classes.

One thing I hope they add is body scaling, at some point; it doesn't have to be anything ridiculous, just enough where you can go, "Oh, that human is a bit buffer/thicker," or, "Oh, that tauren seems a bit taller/shorter than normal." I'd like this because, well, it just adds more customization which is nice of course, it'd still make sense lore wise (not everyone from every race is the same size, especially depending on their professions/classes, etc.), and it'll also keep the game more up to date. I'd also like other things to be updated of course, but... I don't know if any of these wishes for retail will come true since it's a lot (lol): Updated old zones so they actually look like they belong to the modern WoW world, updated old armor pieces--we could still keep the old versions as transmogs, but an updated look would be nice, and updated looks as in... a little more depth and layers to outfits, rather than just everything being skintight with no depth to them (some skintight is fine, but a lot of it just looks weird now). I know they can do it too, because I've seen a lot of npc models (even basic models) throughout many expansions with nice depth and layers attached. I don't care if it'd take a while for them to do these kinds of things, but, it'd be nice to know if any of this would be possible or if they'd be willing to do it. WoW, which is all about the looks, definitely needs an update in regards to looks--which I do see they've been working on what I mentioned earlier, about layers and depth, but old armor especially needs to get looked at. When I go back to classic and then back to retail and I see that the majority of things visually haven't changed at all, it just feels weird--robes especially feel a bit off. Just wanted a place to dump this somewhere... it's somewhat related anyways (lmao).

In midnight they are giving Naga for sure and maybe Amani? But in Last Titan I can see Vrykul stuff and Tuskars from northrend. Maybe Narubians at the end of War Within.

I would love to see playable ogre

i feel like the Jinyu and the Hozen from pandaria get so ignored by Blizzard but should be allied races since we literally spent significant time in that expansion recruiting them to our causes

I want nerubians as new allied race. Imagine casting fireballs with 4 hands as fire mage. Or holding (just visually) 4 axes as a warrior. Would be sick.

Am I the only one who wants to play one of the new 4 arm 2 leg nerubian races? They remind me of the Drow from AD&D

I think you missed the most likely race to come. Eredar. There is the quest with Velen when you go back to Argus to meet a friendly (regretful) Eredar. Could easily become a horde based Draenei.

I absolutely agree that we have almost too many Elves, we have Playable the: Kaldorei, Shal'dorei, Sin'dorei, and Ren'dorei; and Cosmetic Appearances for the: Quel'dorei and Darkfallen (the Dark Rangers)

if you want to get technical, they said the Elves clans are uniting. You could argue that the Trolls are in technicality a clan of Elves(the originals). it's a stretch but it could be the elves giving up their prejudices and embracing all of their heritages.

Yes, playable humanoid nerubians are really possible during a war within patch. As for the races for Midnight, if they want to « gather the whole elf people », if you don’t count high elves (which are as human as elves), there are only three elves factions that aren’t playable : the nagas, like you said (neutral race ?), high elves (on the alliance side) and darkfallen (teased on the horde side in BFA) I can see the naga adds as a whole neutral race, and high elves and darkfallen as allied races. And, yes, forest trolls, whenever they are the Amani or the revantsuks, are a due on the Horde side. And, as for the alliance allied race that could counterbalance, I would love Brokens. Why weren’t they added in BFA as a Mag’har opposite is something I still don’t understand.

Personally, with the Vrykul lore and their society and everything, I imagine they'd basically be like the Pandaren and Drac'thyr if made into an allied race. Some preferring horde for similar ways of life with a lot of races, others choose alliance because "Well, the dwarves and humans are technically kin, so." Of course, if they do add Ogres they'll probably just give Vrykul to the alliance outright to make a 50/50 on "the big guy" race.

I feel like them adding earthen which allows players to play dwarves on both sides. It would make the most sense for them to add Amani trolls to kind of allow players to play what ever race they want despite faction. Which Im sure will meet criticisms for mutliple different reasons, but I think it would be cool to have them added as well as make some changes to hunter to allow them to throw axes and spears. Just really get into the immersion with the class and race itself. In the end Im just happy to get more content so long as its well writen and the writing makes sense.

Quel'Thalas: *gets a revamp* Azuremyst isle: Sometimes I'm alone... Sometimes I'm not... Sometimes I'm alone... Hello?

i would love a faction shakeup / remixing of alliance & horde races, or new factions added entirely

i have wanted vrykul for so long!

ok hear me out proper high elves for alliance and amani trolls for horde, wildhammer dwarves for alliance and ogres for horde, with vrykul and naga for neutral, and more race options for forsaken(considering the forsaken were the freed undead, human assassin mercenaries, forest trolls, murlocs{additional info the trigger for the murlocs joining is broken and they dont stop being hostile regardless of technically being under sylvanas's control in the mission} and ogres{the only group mentioned in wow in the alterac mountains quests from vanilla}, edit: forgot gnolls were part of that mission as well so they had tons of race options) in reality forsaken have enough options to where they technically should have been their own faction, similarly to how night elves had enough to be their own major faction as well, honestly they could have quartered up the world to 4 major factions then had the legion and the scourge as their own factions too

I personally want the Mok nathal for the horde, and the broken for the alliance

With us going underground and the Sethrak living underground, as seen in the backgrounds of the Temple of Sethraliss dungeon, I honestly think it is possible to meet a different tribe of Sethrak in a later patch in War Within and add Sethrak as a new playable race.

It was hinted in the orc armor quest line that the mak nathal orcs will join the horde since outland is falling apart

If Naga is coming then i hope it will be like dracthyr where they have a humanoid form but still there cool Naga form aswell

I want to play as a naga really really bad, but I do have one problem. I want to be a snake tail naga. I don't care if it doesn't work with mounts. Give them a coiling sitting animation. Give us several customizable color changeable tail socks. It's not hard. If you give us naga with legs there is no point.

Blizzard needs to stop presenting low effort changes like we should be excited about it. Sick and tired of re-used assets. They need to start acting like they have the budget they actually have. We should be getting new races/classes/sub specs/updates to old models/textures all the time just because we pay $15 a month. The fact that it takes them months to release anything, and it is usually barely tested is insane.

I haven't played WoW since Warlords of Dreanor, but I think being able to finally play a Forest Troll (Loa) Paladin would have a decent chance to make me play again.

I think Azshara will appear after the third expansion and will be the main villain for 3 more expansions, but that's just me and how I interpreted the scroll of the prophecy.

There are lot's of northrend options, Tuskar just got a new model, there were thos Murlocs who were semi intelligent, the two sholozar factions. Maybe as every classic race now becoms variants we become more ghul like undeads. sooooo many options..

The Drakyr are reskinned worgen; the Kul'turan are reskinned Pandas (you can always tell by the run animation), the vulpera are reskinned goblins. The new elves are swapped from night elves and blood elves, and the obvious reskinned dwarves (iron dwarves) and gnomes (mechagnomes), and reskinned tauren and orcs. They keep reskinning old crap and selling it to us like new and we bend over and take it, thanking them, and giving them our money. The World Sould Saga needs fresh NEW models and animations.

waiting for Hozen and Jinyu which are in the Horde and Alliance since MOP or playable Ogers..maybe even Sethrak and Mogu. Just not annother Barbershop Reskin race like: Dark Irons, Lightforged, Earthen, Mechagnomes, Highmountain Tauren, Mag'har Orcs

I want more undead. And undead druids.

I love dwarves, but I agree with you; I was expecting something different. Something new. They still seem to be the same dwarves with different textures. We want new body types and new animations! Also, the cosmetic aspect of the character you play is one of the most important things for the player. I don't know why they don't make an effort to provide the variety we're looking for, that freedom. Even after many years, we play races we don't like due to the lack of combination with classes.

Would love a playable naga and murlock races with a lot of custo to them hopefully "IF" that was to ever be a playable race i hope for hunter and rogue all i play besides warrior 🖤🖤

I've wanted playable vrykul since wrath. But I refuse to believe that we're getting all of these and yet still no ogres.

A completly new race is an insane amount of work and of course the worktime you are able to spend is limited. Means when you want something ultra super extra fancy like a whole new race with completely new animations and -- the worst part - every little pieace of gear old and new has to be remade for it, that's will take a lot form other things. So the question is: is this difference worth it?

One race that would be cool to have would be some kind of octopus race.

Showed the new Nerubian concepts to a friend who hasn't played in a long, long time, and even he agrees that the humanoid model's a bit... Suspicious. Especially with the face. It's not too weird considering the Qiraji, but it definitely doesn't seem like an accident, either. Here's the instant, "justify ogres anywhere" excuse: Ogres were the best sailors in the Old Horde. We're going to a new landmass. The ogres got everywhere by Warcraft III by virtue of them having staggeringly impressive junk-style ships. As for naga, I really hope they don't try to force a legged model for them. It's not that hard to think of how a naga would ride something (side-saddle or hanging on for dear life). Forest Trolls I am genuinely hoping for. Going a step further, we could hypothetically get both forest and frost troll customizations, if instead of introducing them as an allied race doing the whole posture thing and adding the skin colors. Not likely for that part to happen, but it'd be neat.

There won't be any race that would mean work for Blizz. So no Ogers, Nagas etc. If armor doesn't fit the model, it wont be done...

They won’t do it because they gave Void Elves the customisation for High Elves but I still want High Elves that are actually High Elves and don’t go void in combat

Playing as a nerubian would be sick

Thing with Naga is, unlike say Dragons or Nerubians, who both needed some humanoid form in order to become playable, Naga really are humanoiod enough. There are certainly ways to make gear, mounts and animations work with a snake body. If Blizz really does go the half elven way with them, then I'd be highly disappointed. One of the reasons why they are so popular is because how cool they look, we really dont need another night elf variation.

Myself, I just want three things. DHs to have wings out all the time like dracthyr, flying mode with their wings, and void elf DHs.

honestly vrykul would definitly be my most favorite, but if we ever do get a semi world revamp in kalimdor i want the only acceptable furry race: saberon. with the maghar orc unlock quest a bunch of wildlife comes through the portal, and the saberon run off into the barrens, i could imagine that they will wreak absolute havoc on the local quillboar population which would immediatly make them more sympathetic with tauren and orcs, especially mankrik, i would imagine that the saberon would split of into several smaller tribes, some hostile some friendly some neutral to the horde, the horde could ally itself with a druidic like tribe of saberon through the tauren

Alliance, elf, horde and the forsaken or scourge will be amazing

Sitting in the back of the room knowing Sethrak will probably not be playable ever.

I always wanted to play as a Dryad. Give me that half deer centaur race that has it's own mount speed.

TBH I believe the humanoid Nerubian will 100% be the next playable race(reason being is ITS something new and different then a copy and paste of a already existing race with just small differences.) they add in TWW it will most likely be in one of the major patches near the end of the expansion, also I believe we will get the new human race as well sense the alliance and horde are now whole and not separate. I think Naga and Ogres might be the next races they add in in midnight and Vyrkul being added in The Last Titan sense its slated to mainly be in northern with Uldaur being the focus of the expansion sense that's where all the titans are gonna show up at. So in total we might see 6 new races during this saga with the hint "Might" sense one has already been confirmed which were the earthen. All we can do now in till more info comes out is "hope"

Title: Playable races CONFIRMED Video: Maybe, perhaps, possibly, very likely C'mon man, that's fucking low.

0:23 is the sword on the right obtainable as transmog? If so, what's the name of the weapon?

for the Revamped Quel'thalas, i would want it to be part of the Eastern Kinggdom and not instanced mode, this way the TBC Zone Quel'danas, Eversong Woods, and Ghostlands could still be existing as a Time-Wallking zone.

Midnight it's High Elves time.

Meanwhile on the pirate server "Sirus" not only nagas have existed for a long time as well as other races and classes.

I'm still waiting for the Frost dwarves and taunka, as well as the gilbins and ankoan. They're already allied with the factions. Plus ogres and tuskarr

I want my mechagnome druid that uses a maching version of all shapeshifts already.

The only thing i want from an allied race is big trolls so amani or drakkari. I cant see them both being added so i hope if forest trolls gets added they sort of add some blue skin tones so u can rp a drakkari (like sandfury troll skins for darkspear model)

I've wanted Ankoan for the longest time. So if they gave us Naga, that could switch into a Sea Elf kind of Scaly variation of a Night Elf (think how Dracthyr are like Dragony Blood Elves and Humans) then I would absolutely LOVE it.

so so so not excited for the new "dwarf"

i do hope, if vrykul come, they're either neutral, or horde Think it'd spice up the hordes roster a bit besides more elves

High elf: ...sooo..um...Does this mean that... Devs: NO! High elf: ok.

Looking logically I was thinking through process of elimination. Amani trolls make the most sense ,since you can put them on both side as some care or don’t care for their troll and horde neighbors. especially since the horde took dwarfs this would be the logical trade off.

I'd like pantharan, arakoa, franah to be playable since we saw some of them get warped with us to durotar when we got the magar orcs.

You forgot about the Taunka as well ;)

I want naga playable since Warcraft III

i would like to se the Vrykull as playable race that would be awesome

I've been waiting for playable mogus since mop's first day. They're easy to make because of the draenei skeleton and in the lore we have the Rajani, just make a quest called "birth of a new empire" and make them rebuild the mogu empire but a version that is actually friendly with the pandarens

So, looking at the nerubians, I'm getting a LOT of suramar vibes, like we'll be traversing this giant city with a splitter rebel group of humanoid nerubians that look so tempting as an allied race (and I would so play again the second they announce a playable nerubian race.) working in the shadows of the city politics. So basicity, Suramar again but with spiders, nerubian architecture, and replacing the legion with the void. and i that's all it is, Suramar 2 spider bogaloo, I'm sold.

if they make Naga Allied races wouldnt they fit more with the Horde cause of the blood elves as they once fought beside them?

Still supporting Sethrak; I shall _never_ give up. They would fit in with the new expansion, too, since Vol'dun was supposed to have a subterranean zone (as seen in the Temple of Sethraliss dungeon). 🐍

They should let us do heritage quests with our mains, just for the lore.

If these Dwarves are going to be the new race, they better be bigger than the other dwarves. I'm talking close to Human height.

I would kill for a sethrak playable race

I want to play as Mogu 😢

Curious what happens if I race change my human to blood elf ? Will it work or nah and will I stay in the alliance

For the Naga i must say i don't like the whole transformation idea alot. Just give them snaky sliding as a mount and it will be fine. Although i don't have a fitting idea for flying yet

We thought Sethrak might be allied race too, they even had animations for the Heart of Azeroth, but that was bupkis. Speculation heavy video imho.

The last titan could be a patch name not necessarily an expansion. Same with the others.

What faction would Vrykul be?

WHAT YOU MEAN PEOPLE AREN'T EXITED FOR EARTHAN? Is this for real? I've been wanting a dwarf on horde for AGES now, plus a dwarf female with beards too, plus more lore to the dwarves. They're literally everything me and some of my friend ever wanted

Have not touched retail since WoD, id only go back if there were interesting races like Ogres, Forest Trolls, Naga, etc.

Naga will be the first playable "race" (cough cough species) which would be born by eggs, reptilian and cold blooded. Sure, earthen come from rocks and have fantasy rock blood or whatever, but like with the argonians in elder scrolls, the differences can be interesting. Reducing them to "Night elves with tentacles" would be lame, and takes away from draenei By the way, will we ever be able to play as tuskar or Kurenai?

Blizzard throw random races without explication,they jus need put races like a ginyu or murlocs

Lemme know when they add the Mogu as a playable race.

Still waiting on Sethrak's here has soon as i saw that race in BoA i wanted them i just love snakes too much lol

Honestly with all the elves joining together I think we will see complete high elves or a new elf race that we haven’t heard of before. But how knows

Any allied race fatigue here? Like, can we just get normal base races for each faction again?

3 playable dwarf races? lmao they need to get a little more creative yo.

Does anyone know what interview he's talking about?

Quel'thalas could go 2 directions. Elves united against Void-Trolls. I mean Void-Evles are a thing so why not Void-Trolls. OR ALL Even-tribes include Trolls, since Elves are Trolls infused with arcane energy....

I've wanted Naga since BC was announced

Looking forward to playing my horde dwarf, because I despise alliance storytelling and setting and will simply never play it. But I don't think that horde reskinned dwarf should've been the only playable race announced as a major expansion feature. And an allied race for that matter. Kinda sus.

Which is better? A) Mantid B) Nerubian Humanoid C) You are a Humanoid Qiraji. The son or daughter of one of the Twin Emperors.

we need a third faction.

We have enough reskins. Let's get a turtle race. Something different.

i still want playable murlocs.

I hope for more cross between races and classes Druid orcs for example
