I remember when World of Warcraft was a pretty serious looking game, orcs, humans, so badass looking and whole theme of war. Then they started teasing other races like pandas and stuff like that. The artwork and cinematics for pandas look really badass, same thing with Worgen. Super badass looking wolves and stuff like that. But now, everything looks so clowny and ridiculous. For example, look at this picture of a dracthyr evoker. It looks like such a meme, so damn goofy, and really not in a good way either. It just looks awful. Why does it look so goofy now? Like is this intentional, or they just gave up on development and the gut of the art team? I really don’t understand

    When WC1 first launched the one selling point that everyone mentioned was that if you click on units enough times they get annoyed and say “stop poking me!”

    Warcraft was always heavy on the whacky, that’s its whole thing.

      That was the suggestion I was going to make! They have always been burpy and silly and “Job’s Done!” and all that. Even the sheep will bleat out a Babe reference with enough clicks!
