Character designs: THE SUBJECTIVITY THREAD :'D

This whole discussion reminds me of the cheetos furries on twitter.

Also, I wholeheartedly despise whoever decided that any mildly controversial decision or actions needs to be a "gate".

An interesting argument came up on /r/wow because of this image depicting Yrel from the Draenor expansion.


People were saying that her appearance in-game detracts from the image Blizzard tried to portray her with.
This is what she looks like in-game.


This is official concept art.


Personally, I always figured she was depicted pretty well. Her chest piece in the concept has a sailor heart. That certainly didn't make the cut. She stands taller than most Draenai, and all player Draenai.

She's probably my favorite character in all of Warcraft (which is saying something. Love me Cairne, Baine, Sylvanas, and the dwarven kings.), so I'm a bit bias.
