I completely agree! My main paladin is a tauren female. I changed her from a blood elf during Wrath, but after the model update, I rarely play her, cause I feel like I'm playing a snail. Also that permanent smile on her face makes me think of this:s1ncer1ty wrote: I won't play tauren because they feel like the run slowly. I know everyone technically runs at the same speed, but I feel like I'm just slugging through molasses.

I'll be waiting on the highland, with its wonderful serenity.
Where the stars glow and the brooks flow, that's my way of life.
When the mountains on the highland, and the nature is surrounding me, when the wind blows, that's all I need.

Re: Races you play, want to play, wont play
I would literally kill someone to play the Arakkoa (especially the uncursed ones), the Tol'vir (cat-taur people from Uldum) and Dryads.
And the one race I cannot play for the life of me is Gnomes. I just... can't, no matter how many I start or what the class is. Maybe one day, but for now, nah.

Re: Races you play, want to play, wont play
Would love to play outcast/cursed Arrakoa, Kobolds, Ogres, Quilboar, Hozen and Jinyu
Won't play Gnomes. Won't play Worgen, can't stand their models, their animations, their sounds, their retconned lore, their stater zone, their running wild instead of mount, their everything. The females especially should scrapped and started from scratch.

Re: Races you play, want to play, wont play
Tauren are pretty cool too, especially my badass Paladin (who I wish I could get more invested in.) So are female Night Elves, but I wish they didn't have that annoying idle animation.
However, I'm not too keen on starting:
- A male Human (Their design doesn't really appeal to me)
- A male Gnome (I don't really like their faces)
- A female Worgen (Blizzard kinda dropped the ball with their appearance in my opinion)

Re: Races you play, want to play, wont play
I remember being so awed by the night elf lands when I first started playing many years ago, so they'll always have that special something for me. And I love how attuned they are to nature. As for draenei, I can't really explain why I keep making so many of them. I just find them somewhat charming for some reason. I think the females have the cutest accents, and the males make excellent paladins IMO. Blood elves I think catch some flak for being the "pretty" race on the Horde that all the kids play (or at least that's what I've heard), but I think they're neat anyway. And even though I'm not down with the whole "screw-the-world" outlook by many of the forsaken, they're just too freakin' cool! I like making females that look scary or creepy, and males that look a bit dorky. They're just fun to play.
Races I want to play: naga and arakkoa
I don't know why, but I've always had a fascination with the naga. I think it'd be so cool to play as a giant serpentine person. As for the arakkoa, they're just awesome bird people. Who wouldn't want to play as one?
Races I will never play: female worgen or any type of panda. Also female tauren
I have tried a couple times to stick with a female worgen, but I just can't get over how god-awful they look to me. They just totally dropped the ball on those (and alpha models looked so promising!). Ugh! I think the males look wicked awesome though, so I do play those once in a while (one of my mains is a male worgen DK). As far as the pandaren go.....I suppose the males aren't as bad (which still isn't saying much), but I can't stand the females. They look ridiculous to me and I can't take them seriously. I started to make one as a joke and couldn't even make it past the first quest before logging out and deleting it. As for the female tauren, I really want to like them, but I just think they're ugly. The males look pretty cool, but the females are just...I dunno. I can't do it.
