Re: Rescued Turkeys
Though, I noticed one turkey was not only rescued, but apparently was adopted by one of the Great Eagles.

Re: Rescued Turkeys
But I'm still unsure why it makes you laugh like crazy after petting these new critters. Is there something I'm not getting here? It just seems like a really odd response and maybe I'm missing something.

Re: Rescued Turkeys
It's the same response you get from petting a cat, dog, fawn, or other interactive critter elsewhere in the Broken Isles. I imagine it's just the same reaction reused. (Even if the response is a little weird.)Wain wrote:I loved it. Very cute

Re: Rescued Turkeys
It's supposed be like 'joy' or happy, since its pretty common for a lot of people (at least where I'm from and where Blizz is actually HQ) that when people pet animals, they act silly or happy (or use baby-talk) to animals after petting them. Like not as crazy as WoW portrays it, but yanno just "omg animal yay! <3" kind of feeling? I think that's what its supposed to be like anyways.Wain wrote:I loved it. Very cute

And I think probably because our characters don't actually smile unless there's a real animation tied to it (like /laugh). The characters faces don't actually show emotion on its own without another animation tied to it (/yes or /no). And they probably picked /laugh because for all races it seems to express joy or amusement. There are differences in animation (of course) for different races, but some races also seem to having 'missing' emotes. As an example, I can't remember which one it was, but my friends and I were using either /charge or /cheer (something like that), the NE, Draenei, and Human in our group all had animation/sounds to the emote, but our Worgen Female companion had no animation/sound, only a line of text.
So making it just be /laugh where they knew it would always be 'amused' and every race/gender combo would have an animation and sound attached was probably just easier (even if it comes off a bit crazy lol)

Not that I saw, but I saw this shocked Rescued Turkey, realizing their demise...zedxrgal wrote:Do these turkeys sense their destiny like the plump turkey and commit turkicide?

Re: Rescued Turkeys
I noticed a couple more non-interactive turkeys hanging out on the targets at the front of the target. Brave, brave souls. They escaped death once and have returned to laugh in its face!

I admit: I'm a bit of a screencap wh-...ound when I notice that something hasn't yet been captured in 'film'.GormanGhaste wrote:I love that Rescued Turkeys spawn in the hunter class hall during Pilgrim's Bounty, and that Wowhead already has a screenshot of them by Kurasu
