Blood elves weren't changed :-) You have to worry about what happens
to them when they do get done though, they're supposed to come in a
future patch; as a result if I racechange anything it won't be to a
blood elf, as the same problems may happen to them too :-/

I just died for the first time in a long time on Ordos - not sure if
there weren't many healers in the raid, or we were all crap, but I
usually get healed up instantly when I get hit with anything, this
time I only noticed I was low on health as I was falling to my death
:-) Looks like I have to get used to aoe/smart heals being rather less
common than before and not just spam dps!

Ouch, female gnomes and dwarves are among the worst for me, not good.
The female human is just about tolerable, I don't like it but it's
less bad than some, they all look surprised and a bit ditzy, but
that's better than the stoned dwarves and depressed gnomes! Alliance
females really came out of this one badly, only the draenei actually
looks nice imo, and even she doesn't look the same as before. 

It's really disappointing to me that the models I think look great are
really a minority: dwarf male/draenei female is all that worked on
alliance for me, while on Horde troll m/f, UD male, orc female all
look good, tauren male is pretty cool too, though not too similar to
the old model. If I played mainly alliance I'd be turning the new
models off, as it is I think most of my alliance alts will be
gathering dust for a while.
