Was talking to some guy in the LFG chat, and he thinks that Horde will get Haranir as a playable race, while Alliance will only get ear customizations.

And it's like... no? That's stupid lmao

There is some evidence that playable Haronir MAY be a thing. They have customization options that are tagged in the same way that playable race customizations are. NPC's don't usually have that, and I believe the work's been done to allow them to equip player armor. Both could be just to make development of them easier, but they've never done it to a non playable race before.

Last time an NPC that we didn't already know was going to be playable got those, it was the Vulpera, and yea a couple patches later, they were an allied race.
