That transform animation is going to be SO annoying. ICANN just imagine some wolves in the AH, spamming it.

Yes, tis Mulgore, not Durotar. The transformation animation does look pretty awesome, but I could see it getting old after so many times... Kind of reminds me of how the screaming neigh of a DK's horse was kinda like, "woah, cool!" but got really annoying, really fast.

But yeah, the animation is gonna be horrible and annoying when going in/out of combat frequently (PvP... PvE... etc...).

I kinda don't like the lumbering run of the worgen form... But it's ok, I know mine will be female.
*goes back to drooling over the animations of the female worgen*

I realized it was Mulgore I just typed fast and thought the zone isn't the main focus of it anyways. I love the transformation and someone spamming it dosent annoy me it's like the Lil Xt pet...he didn't annoy me at all /shrug, to each their own though I suppose all I know is I can't wait!

The animation itself is incredibly cool. But the noise is extremely loud. Maybe Blizz could fix it so the sound can only be heard by the caster...?

I like the attacking animation, but the way it runs is sorta meh imo. I can't wait to roll a goblin, however.

Going to roll both either way (female and male). Am I weird for actualy liking the crouched position the worgen males move at? It gives me image that the body used to walk on four limbs not on two.
The transformation could be downed a bit, if enough people do it at the same time the server might (notice the might) crash even.
I can't place a real opinion on the female since most of the movement is draenei female. Oh come on the hip movement is so draenei female and the leg structure. Thou this might mean that they are using the female draenei as a base for the real model, atleast the legs...but how come this makes me think that the male worgens are then actually male draenei bases under good disguise! D:
....wait did I rant.

Hmm....yeah...worgens do nothing for me. Love their starting zone though. Gala and I plan on breaking in and claiming it for ourselves.

It might already be that way. After all, we're only seeing one worgen in the video.

I agree, the female worgen do look a lot like the female draenei. I also happen to love the way the female draenei move, so I don't mind so much. I do see some movements that are more feral, so if they manage a good balance, I'll be happy.
I don't think the male worgen are built over the draenei frame though. I'm thinking more like male troll when I see it (and I hate their pose too, the slouch gives me a back ache just looking at it... >_<).

All I know is I find them awsome and I dont find little game things annoying I find PEOPLe in trade chat annoying

Maybe I have a high tolerance level, I love them though. I love female goblins and worgens, I love the male worgen but the male goblins are kinda eh to me...they seem like Arnold in a tiny green man form with proportions that dont fit right

My new petopian hunter will def be a goblin though

Also I fond think the transformation will be annoying because druids transform with noises too /shrug - it isnt as loud but think that in the transformation videos its the worgens sound so its up really loud...can always turn your sound down too

The animation is nice..but a waste of time.
When you go into battle you want to immedietly start killing things. But waiting to get all fangy and furry before you take the first swing is like I said a waste of time. And thinking about it when applied to the hunter it makes it unnecissary. You send in pet, take three seconds to go fangy and furry, and just wasted three seconds you could have used shooting at the enemy.
Thankfully running around as a human is optional so I'm thinking that for the first hour of gameplay, at the starting zone of course, people will be spamming the animation it like crazy before they get tired of it and just take the worgen form.

I think the transformation is lame and may not roll a Worgen now because of it.
Seems like a huge hassle. And I may be the only one but I thought you just stayed in the Worgen form the whole time. Seeing as how in game they currently there's no transforming that I've seen. Maybe it's just me.
But the transform will get old real fast.

You can choose to stay in wolf form all the time, if you want to.

I'm sure the transformation is all RP and cosmetic effects, I haven't read anywhere that the form actually buffs you at all. So you could start attacking right off the bat as you still transform, I could be wrong though.
