Q u o t e:
I like it, much better than the old one. I really hope they will update the graphics on the player models as well!
This is most certainly something we would like to do as well, but art development is something that is rather restricted by time. Our artists are a busy bunch of people, and unfortunately there is not enough time to do everything we want all at once. Right now our artists are working on a lot of different things related to the future of World of Warcraft, things I am sure you will learn more about sooner or later ;-)
In regards to Jaina’s new model, we felt that now was a good time to update her model since she will play an important part in The Frozen Halls in Icecrown Citadel. The update was meant to give her a slightly more unique look compared to other humans, but basically to let her keep the appearance that we all know so well... we did of course take the opportunity to give her model a greater texture resolution and a higher polygon count as well :-)
