That article is a little misleading but still funny. Not everybody in WoW looks like a Greek god or goddess. Actually, the male alliance characters aren't really appealling created at all and they're not even considering horde where they are designed to look pretty hideous. The female characters of the alliance do tend to be a little too cutesy, imo--especially in comparison to the male chars! I have a turquoise haired night elf, complete with matching warpaint. I certainly don't want to be a turquoise haired night elf in real life though.
My other character is an undead female in a serious state of decomposition.
Now, if they want to point a finger at a game for making everybody look like gods and goddesses, then they really should be looking at FFXI. In that game, everything and everybody looks cute--except maybe galka.
