Quote:The Naaru in general were an entirely ridiculous idea. They had to be strong enough to repel the Legion...but too weak to really fight them? And they're just captured so easily?
I'm going to go ahead and admit that I wouldn't be playing a Draenei if they were ugly.
I dunno, I don't perceive the Elves as a society/nation so much as an enormous group of individuals who really are trying to keep themselves alive just another day. I haven't gotten there yet, but I think the point is that Kael isn't really looking out for them anymore.
The sillyness of the Naaru aside, the fact that some of them are really powerful, but that one got captured really isn't that hard to comprehend. Think of people - some of them can wrestle alligators, others can be cornered by mice. Or think of humans in the game - Highlord Morgaine is several million times more powerful then Kul Tiras Marine.
Well, Draenei probably can't be considered pretty either. They look powerful and impressive. I'm not saying they have to use the actual Broken model currently wandering the swamp of sorrows. But they shouldn't have made them powerful space demons either. Something inbetween, would get enough people playing who want to see the starting zone, want to roll shammy, or just want to try out what is new.
There aren't an enormous amount of blood elves or high elves running around. The 3rd war did not go well for them.
