Yeah this jokes been done to death but this is the joke done good.
I can't believe how good that is, it's kinda mindblowing. Like, I don't ever want to play dark souls even though I respect it, but drat, I'd play that in a heartbeat. The skeleton ball bit was genius
Tauren paladins? When did they add those? I stopped playing around Wrath. I'm guessing it's a paladin, at least. Maybe a warrior.

Get this, they revere the sun, Therefore, they can be Paladins of the Light. Its just stupid enough that it must be fantasy so i love it.



Anyway goblins are the best.




When you search warcraft goblins art on tumblr you get a lot of shirtless handsome goblins.

They added them in Cataclysm, along with dwarven shamans.

The next expansion is adding Highmountain Tauren, which are just slightly taller Tauren with face pain and moose horns.


Anyways, Tauren are great.

Yeah, I very much like the blizzard schtick, at least initially, of flip-flopping fantasy race stereotypes. Instead of savage labyrinth-stalking beasts, warcraft minotaurs are druidic in nature and temperament. Orcs are shamanistic hunters rather than ramshackle looters(until they were CORRUPTED to be that way). Instead of mindless shamblers, warcraft undead are super smart assholes. Instead of lofty high society, warcraft high elves are heroin addicts with the patina of sophistication barely hiding it, etc

shame the storylines all wind up being CORRUPTION CORRUPTION CORRUPTION inevitably though.

Not fanart, per se, though music is an artform. Johnny Atma just did the best track from Shovel Knight(The Fateful Return):

And he recently did a really, really good cover of Undyne's themes, as well.

Blizzard relies way too heavily on the "noble savage" trope.

Man I wish the trolls looked more like that in game. At least the new expansion is adding Zandalari Trolls

Along with the Nightborne

And Dark Iron Dwarves

Of course, not all the new races are good, like the Lightforged Draenei, which are Draenei, but more holy and get beards.

And a void elf, which are blood elves, but more edgy.

Alrighty, mentioned this in the old thread, so I might as well dust it off for the new one: Confinement, an animated series about life in the SCP Foundation as seen through the eyes of a technically-immortal test subject. Imagine something like Regular Show mixed with Men in Black and you'll be in the ballpark.

Oh hey, that was actually pretty neat. Definitely way less cringy than I thought it would be. Animation style reminded me of Ugly Americans, tbh.
