Better or worse models dont affect my gameplay or >experience. You're lucky then! I zoom out while playing, sure, but I like to make my charcters look good, transmog, and my own choice of face, hair etc, I always pick a race/class/gender/face/hair combo that I like as a unit. Only, a lot of my characters no longer look like my characters. >Honestly. I dont see any reason for the new models. Its like Blizzard >says "hey!

Well, it's done because when you look at a pandaren, and then look at the worst of the old models (tauren and human male come to mind), the difference is enormous, and a lot of us wanted our older races to look as good as the pandaren. Just a shame a lot of them don't; a key part of the process was supposed to be keeping the look and feel of our old characters, and they just plain failed at that in a lot of cases. >When that is said; my gnome lock's new face looks pretty dumb.
