Can we have a thread about non-human (or close-to-human IE: elf) races done right?

Can we have a thread about non-human (or close-to-human IE: elf) races done right?
Why are they so few and far between?
Why do so many devs just take elf, dwarf, loli, or human-with-animal-ears cop out?
Is it laziness or just lack of creativity?

WoW is the only MMO that does races right.

That's just a mutt though.

They literally just took a generic anime girl and taped some dragon bits on her.
They didn't even bother to make the wings big enough to let her fly...

if those polls about WOW populations are acurate, the overwhelming majority choses humans or elves as PC.
To devs extra effort would be wasted on the beast races, specially if that means new animations and armor.

Florans in Starbound are great, but they're stuck in a shit game.

Holy...

The short hair, narrow hips, and Hank Hill ass, and short tail ruin this. The only part that really has an excuse is the short tail since that's how Draenei look but it's a shitty part of their design.

Would be better with an exotic skin color.

Blood Elves are GOAT when it comes to this

Draenei are god tier in art but they look like shit in game. Their faces are so shit. Guess that applies to a lot of stuff in WoW though.

yeah this

Too bad they are stuck in a shit game and with shit tent dwelling faction.

They could have been kinda of cool. To bad they are in a world with shit writers.

well, that major layoff was a start

They have fat horsecocks?

Too bad they're stuck in a deadass game.

In-game blood elves are fucking awful, they should have made them grittier and have them still be fel and arcane addicts instead of being redeemed or whatever bullshit happened to them.

The same goes for Nightborne, they were interesting when they were mana junkies and some of them outright scarred because of it.

Uninspired garbage.
Copy the same template.
Add dragon parts.
It's a cute anime moeblob generica with dragon bits.
Truly a new epoch for the Japanese industries.

It has a "Z" in the name and its omnitool is a claw to make it look more sophisticated.
It also has a suspicious testicle bulge. And tight leather... yes... the depths of exquisite and refined taste. It also has fat flabs around the kneecaps because, well, taste. TITS.

For me, it's the Ronso.

they made zero sense in the horde, just put them in so people have a pretty horde race

>bulky turtle aliens with their heads sticking out of where their chests would be
>lithe buggish limbed aliens with barrel chests and cleft lips
>human women with stubby hair tentacles that don't even move and they're blue
Asari are the missionary position of aliens.

I would like to see giant races done right in an action RPG. Dragons, variety giants, treants etc. and how they can be implemented alongside smaller characters. It might be possible as a singleplayer only game but I 'm curious on how the devs would implement them especially with interaction and level design.
