Not to WoW bash (because I respect the game), BUT Zombie Dog seems to be that toe that has inched across the line from Diablo to WoW. Wow inspires images of saturday morning cartoons that didn't require too much thought to enjoy but none the less fun and very enjoyable.
Diablo makes you think of a good gothic horror novel on a rainy night. I have not yet had any problems with the graphics and color scheme, but a Zombie Dog would be the straw that broke the camels back.
Unrelated but to clarify meaning.
And to make sure it is understood: Gothic fiction is a classical literature genre the includes "Classic works of this period include Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray (1891), George du Maurier's Trilby (1894), Henry James' The Turn of the Screw (1898), and the stories of Arthur Machen." But also includes Bram Stoker's Dracula and later HP Lovecraft's, Robert E. Howard, and several fantasy and scifi books from the early 1900s.
Last time i used the term the thread turned into a "emo/goth!" flame-athon due to ignorance of the term "gothic". I am sure this forum is more mature, but it is the interwebz.|||This was the number one thing I wanted to talk to blizzard about at PAX. The other was that I think barbarians should get rage from other party members damage.
Zombie Dog is a hideous choice... If I didn't know any better, I would say the person who picked that name was trying to sabotage the game or asked their four year old child to name it. These would all be better....
Grave Hound
Zombie Hound
Hound
Mongrel (Not as good as Grave Hound... but better than zombie dog lol)
- Jerich|||How I think it should be:
Mongrel
Charger
Gargantuan(this thing better be damn huge)
Really don't need the word Zombie in any of them.|||Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums. Just wanted to add my 2 cents.
I personally like zombie hound or just hound.|||Quote:

What if Blizzard changed "Zombie Charger" into "Ravager"?|||well i have to go with mongrels it sounds so much better
|||Quote:What if Blizzard changed "Zombie Charger" into "Ravager"?
That would be cool too. We still don't really know what this one is like so its hard to name it.|||I like Zombie Mongrel. Just sounds.... right.|||'Mongrel', for sure!
It's a perfect match for the visuals. The zombies themselves look very disturbing because it's as if it's a humanoid figure which is down on all fours and has the head of a dog as opposed to being an actual zombie dog.
'Mongrel' is such an evocative name and takes the creepiness of the minion up a notch.|||-mongrel
-undead charger (or something)
also don't like 'zombie' in the skill tree name.
