well in wow humans are overpowered pieces of shit, racially speaking, if you are talking vanilla then its perception, if you are talking modern then its their free trinket bullshit
going to a vanilla server is suffering because alliance is unironically 70% human

The average human player character is going to be more interesting than the average non-human every time, as the players need to create personality themselves as opposed to pulling it from the "race all acts like this" guidelines for every nonhuman race and furthermore need to actually make a background to organically differentiate themselves from the rest past being a part of a super speshul race descended from dragons or whatever. Our world has only one race, and look how many unique cultures we have. What do elves and dwarves, and any other shit bring that's at least half as interesting as those?

In two of the best fantasy series' I've read in the last decade (The First Law, The Powder Mage Trilogy) both authors agreed that their work dramatically improved when they removed the 'fantasy races' in exchange for actual unique cultural development with humans.
>>386253098
It's because Alliance races are boring OP. Dwarves are just short humans. Night Elves are only good for fapping and dancing. And Gnomes are for the lolsorandomxD crowd.

Why is it gay to play the game with a female character?
Seriously, why?
I have to play males since it's weird to play as a female.
I also make my males look good.
Very good.I just want an MMORPG where the art is designed by Ayami Kojima since she draws THE most fabulous looking males ever, and it pains me to know that I will never be as beautiful as them.

Humans are far superior to every conceivable race. The only reason non-human races exist in game is so faggots have something to play and real people have something to mock/kill.
Post your favorite race
>>386253212
if you're a male that plays as a female then I can't take you seriously (as a man). It's just really really weird. If you say it's because you'd rather stare at a female's butt all day rather than a male's, then you need to go out more.
The only time this is acceptable is if you don't have a choice...but any other time you choose a female over a male... well, you need to evaluate yourself -- you might be the wrong gender in real life.
>>386254383

>>386253212
picking female in wow is 100% because all the males look fucking retarded, the only cases can be made for humans and undead
I promise you most people started playing females in wow because of the above, not because of the ass meme, males in wow look way fucked proportionally, and even female human looks retarded because they have hilariously broken weapon scaling so that all their one handers look like two handers and their two handers are the size of taurens

It's how boring they are. I played GW2 for a year and couldn't name a single memorable thing any Charr has ever done because they are all so dull and similar. Same with every other race with the possible exception of the Norn.

Iksar truly are the master race. Now if only Kunark would come out for agnarr so I could switch my necro to iksar.
It depends on the game. In something like the Elder Scrolls series, it is boring to just pick a human when there's like three different types of humans. But in something like WoW where you have so many races that are weird and different, playing a human almost turns into the unique choice due to how much they're surrounded by stranger races. It becomes a novelty and more interesting to play a human when so many other people are running around as elves, orcs, dwarves, and other shit.
Besides, humans typically look the best in armor sets in WoW. I played a male troll for years as my main and goddamn is that suffering when it comes to how armor fits. Everything looks like a skin tight texture layered over their body. With humans it looks a little better because the textures aren't getting stretched too bad.

You know this to not be true. Every single server has humans at atleast 40%

Wasn't my experience when playing. Maybe the actual numbers disagree with that experience, but I always saw a shit ton of elves and Worgen running around 24/7 on alliance. On horde it was bloodelves and undead everywhere. Humans popped up plenty, but not as much as others.

Blood Elves were added specifically because the factions were so imbalanced.
You'd find only tryhard D&Dfag NEETs on horde in vanilla. All the normies played Alliance.
It's now a widely accepted requirement to have a vanity race on both sides, because players in general are vain shallow retards.

Thats dumb. Why the fuck isn't that allowed?
>>386257516
I feel you.
The biggest problem with non-human races in games is that the devs don't put enough work into developing these races.
BECAUSE THEY'RE HUMANS THEMSELVES.
also, another minor WoW gripe: weapon sizes differ from race to race. Hell, even gender is a factor because human females have HUGE weapons while female draenei for example get fucking toothpicks as greatswords.
Human characters are the norm, unfortunately.

>>386257962
I wanna say PvP reasons?
It's important to know whether you're about to fight a human player or a worgen player (because racials).
I do think that's bullshit, though.
BECAUSE: Orcs look like shitty hunchbacks, Undead have stupid bones sticking through their armor, Blood Elves look nothing like their WC3 counterparts, Goblins are kind of decent but armor looks like garbage on all short races.
Tauren have terrible clipping issues and aren't as big as they should be.
Basically all WoW races are garbage, but at least Humans have good looking armor and a cool city.

Blood Elves are pretty much the emerging powerhouse nowadays.
They have mostly recovered from the third war. Not bearing the brunt of damage for multiple expansions goes a long way.
The Reliquary, though newly established, already is giving the Explorers' League a run for its money. The improved golems and anima magic they recovered from ToT is a great boon. Not only can it stand pound for pound to any alliance tech, but it's also a failsafe if Sylvanas tries anything funny.
Their troops are highly specialized, some with millennia of experience. Rangers, mages, warlocks, blood knights and spellbreakers. On top of that, they are the only faction that has completed "The Manhattan project".
And of course IIRC the barriers around Quel'Thalas have been reactivated (haven't done the starting zone in a long time).

In all honesty, its hard to choose because I like them equally and anything that is not human. The stranger the race/species and it's lore the more I like it.
But if I had to choose generic races, I'd have to go with Drows/Dark Elves, Ogres, and Goblins. I have a hard time choosing favorites between those three.

humans in wow tend to look best in most armor because of their proportions. that said i'd still rather be a dwarf or an orc
Pathetic virgins self inserting into games
>>386254717
undead female is one of the best races in the game you fag
>>386260978
I missed this bait
>>386255358
Gay as fuck, I don't play furry games.
If I had to pick I'd go lion/harpy
>>386255358

Im sold

Its for a whole host of reason other than them being the baddies anon

You fucked up
>>386253098
>picks the human warrior or hunter
>I don't get it.
bc in the real world they can't be a galiant, super strong Paladin or ranger who who purges other races and fucks elf bitches.
I understand your point, but ppl who play humans in fantasy games play them so they can play a fantastical human life. simple as that.
or they just don't like the character models of other races.
also
>Not playing elves
>>386261807
>yells incomprehensible things into the mic, guildmates obey every order

Sounds about right
>>386260868
Yeah what the fuck is this
>>386253212
I play what I want faggot, the female in splatoon for example just looks better with the tentacle hair
>>386253212
UR GAY IF U DONT PICK MALE WE SHOULD ALL BE MEN HOW AM I KNOW IF UR MAN IF UR CHARACTER IS NOT MAN WHAT ARE YOU GAY YOU MUST NOT LIKE WOMEN
>>386258381
We can only pray.
>>386261807
I really wish you /r9k/ faggots would fuck off back to your containment board.
>>386258381
why would you trust blizzard to do this correctly?
if it ever comes it will be an "old-content in new client with the same trappings of modern wow"
>>386253252
>Our world has only one race
lol
>>386264676
It's the real life equivalent of palette swaps with different stats, I'd hardly consider them legitimate races in a videogame.
>check out all the non-human races stuff out
>99% of it is genuine retardation, shit awful writing, nothing genuinely unique or interesting about them whatsoever, and most gear looks like dogshit on them because it's all modeled and fitted to the human model first and foremost
>all of the skeletons are almost exactly the fucking same anyway, only with a certain kind of hunch this time and length of arms and legs
Because no fucking MMO will ever actually let you play a genuinely different and interesting race. It's gotta be humanoids and only humanoids. At that point, why bother with the "human but with x" bullshit?
>>386253212
>plays female character
>uses decisively feminine name
>wears slutty outfit
>types all cutesy with unironic emoticons and shit
these people should be shot 2bh
>>386264906
Lazy devs don't want to do the extra work on animations and models, as well as equipment fitting to those bodies. They're also somehwat justified in that most people just pick humans or human-likes anyway making the extra effort a waste.
>>386264894
>with different stats
oy vey don't say that goy
>>386264345
I don't trust Anon, I hope. I hope for the future. I hope because I must Anon. I hope.I don't but I would like to see if they can work magic
>>386260723
>90% of Orc players want to play generic Orc Warrior or Hunter.
I swear, I feel like majority of the people in the world are just boring uncreative-tards who like nothing but the generic and the trope. The best part of playing any character is doing the uncanny and breaking out of the norm like making a Dwarf Thief, or a Halfling Mage.

Reading this makes me think how Faction pride would have turned out in the long run
>>386254323
>dwarves that low
>>386257268

> not axe
>And knowing that the orcs have axe racial passive
this is way the alliance think orcs are the niggers of the game
I rolled a human paladin because after playing Warcraft 3 I wanted to be Uther 2.0 and behead those gay orcs and zombies
>>386259264
Hail, brother.
>game has reptilian race
>almost always evil
>>386266603
Really? The only reptilian race I can think of as being inherently evil are the Sahuagins in any D&D game. But with everything else from TES, HoMM, and Avernum, Lizardfolk are always just out of the way primitives who doesn't give a fuck about anybody and attack when somebody fucks with them. They are literally the fucking most neutral of neutral race in the entirety of fantasy. Even the Iskar in Everquest aren't generally evil, they are isolationist murderhobo faggots who trusts nobody good or evil.
Reptilians are the overall good guys who keep the BBE Gods at bay in Warhammer Fantasy.
>>386253212
Who wants to spend hours making a dude character? Are YOU a fag?
Making your own waifu is patrician taste.

>>386253098
I used to pick human as a kid too. At the time I was impressed by anything.
>>386267870
Sad.
>>386268432
>>386255358
Obviously bird.
>>386253615
> Rats or rabbits to kill
And now we have Cataclysm as starting expansion, where EVERYTHING is so epic, and then we have even more EPIC - WOD, Legion.
Seriously since when starting as a simple peasant is a bad thing?
>>386268668
you think you do but you don't etc etc
>>386254013
Because i can self insert as a human discovering said worlds and lores. Feels way better than already being another piece of it.
>>386268886
I'm not even mad now. Not playing this shit anymorethx god.
>>386269383
Yes. I'm not mad either.YES I AM. FUCKING BLIZZARD
>>386253615
I've always loved my gnome warrior but you're right in that people don't take you seriously. I also have a Tauren shaman and people assume I'm a better player even if my gear score is lower.
>>386255358
I'm no DEXfag, but I'd play as an annoying bird all day.
>>386258592
that's why I play Tauren
>>386256778
the battletoads remake is coming along nicely
>>386259841
The only way to improve it is to give it crisper textures, higher poly count, and absolutely keeping the same general design. They MOSTLY did good with the Tomb sets, which were pretty good upgrades from Tier 6 designsexcluding the obviously bad ones like Demon Hunter, Monk, and Death Knight, who didn't have T6. Something like how the Warrior (except keep the glowing eyes) and Hunter sets were would be perfect.
>>386253098
>I don't get it.
You don't?
Let me tell you why.
It's because 99% of those games' non human "races" are humans cosplaying under a different stat growth table and class instead of being proper races and they often look like hot garbage too, no shit I choose to play as humans, if it were a game with proper races with their unique mechanics, behaviour and stat management I will, in fact I do in the handful of games that are actually designed well, but I have no reason not to pick humans in all the others, especially because you know, I'm a human myself.
>>386254383

anyone who does this has some kind of mental problem without exception. prove me wrong
>>386253098
I'm a real life orc so...
>>386254383
Tauren are chill.
>>386253098
On the internet, nobody knows you are a draenei
>>386253252
Good post. It's especially true in games like Mass effect where the outside perspective coming into an unfamiliar world is what makes it interesting.
>>386271567
I love playing beast races in games, I just hate how furries ruin them.
>>386253212
MMOs are like 40% dress up nowadays or more, females are more fun to get outfits for. It makes no difference outside of that fact
>>386253190
Perception was useless in vanilla. It was the +5 to sword and mace that did it as well as the rep bonus
>>386271781
yeah tell that retard, I only spent one hour making mine
>>386254402

No shit. I want to be a little girl

Not enough spikes

what? Perception literally did nothing in vanilla.

No, fucking thanks.
