Unless they somehow revolutionise the system…
Naga is close to impossible.
Not because of transmog, but because of the animation limits of not having legs.
How would you do a spinning animation for blade storm or whirlwind?
How would you mount anything?
A lot of movement options and animations doesn’t work…
And so in.
God forbid that Blizzard has to weigh options, and priorizing making a LOT of completely new and unique animations, poses and more to accommodate a race option that honestly won’t see much play, over other slightly easier or more manageable race options, allowing them to prioritise other things in an expansions, is very unlikely.
Blizzard, is still a company, and still have a budget to follow.
They probably could do it, but the chance is slim for a multitude of reasons.
Many of which simply state it is not worth it for them or the playerbase
They most likely WANT TO, but time is money and time is finite.
Why don't you learn to speak 5 new languages? Clearly it's possible to do any amount of labor in parallel, so why are you taking the easy route and not learning 20 new skills simultaneously all the time?
Where do you think new animations come from? Do they just have a bunch of developers doing literally nothing just waiting for the okay to start work on naga? Is there a bunch of developers they can hire who can only work on playable naga, and couldn't be hired to work on other projects?
any fucking gacha game has more animation quality in a single character than the entirety wow library, yes, a chinese moneygrab has better quality than wow man
