Goblin Character Select Screen

Unread post by SpiritBinder »

I know that there are many, many movies and Cata info coming at us left right and center, but this one caught my attention.

I know it's just of the goblins atm, but then I've not seen a full male and female character select screen before, and this video really excietd me. Sooo many choices O_o

Here is the worgen one, but no female worgens atm :|

I actually really like how the goblins look! I wasn't entirely sold on them before, but this has changed my mind. Thanks for posting it!

Goblin starting clothes make me jealous. I'm going to have to steal a couple sets. I also think it's awesome that you're able to alter the chin/nose/ears on the goblin models. Very cool. Only hope that female's little nose bone is given different coloring so it doesn't blend in with the skin. Probably will.

Worgen.... Not that impressed, to be honest. Don't really look very wolfish, and the females are apparently even less so. Won't be interested in playing one beyond the starting zone.

I am extremely envious that both the Goblins and Worgen Hunters actually have an animated gun-holding pose as opposed to the current "stand there like an idiot holding the gun by it's stalk at a ridiculously stupid angle" everyone else has and presumably will continue to have.

It would be so nice if Blizzard redid all the character animations and textures so we don't feel like we're playing lesser characters.

Looks pretty cool. I was going to make a Goblin Rogue and steal peoples money for giggles. And no, I wouldn't do the same IRL.

Ditto.
Hopefully the people playing the Friends and Family Alpha and eventually Beta players will flood the suggestion box with fixing the animation and textures.

And darnit, the guy didn't show the DK skins. You know the whitish to bluish colored zombie skins.

Omg, the goblins are amazing! So many damn options, especially the females hairstyles! And the ears! I love it. I think I have a second favourite race now.. (my first being trolls of course!).

Im just hoping we get lots of new customizable things like hairstyles or tattoos etc. for the existing races. I'm sure we will, since it doesn't make sense to revamp all of Azeroth, but not revamp the original races up to nicer quality as well :D
Rejoined the hunt after a lengthy break... feels good!

Goblin female warlock, with a little skull in the hair, oh yes. LOVING it!

I agree that the vanilla models could use a revamp. They're going to look so horribly outdated compared to the new races. Heck, they already look outdated IMO compared to even the blood elves and draenei. :(
