There have been a number of players who complained about the art used on the new badge items in Blizzard's World of Warcraft. Community Manager Nethaera answered these concerns from the players on the MMORPG's official forums.

She started off by reminding players to be a little more tactful with their complaints and to give specific examples of what they don't like about the current system. After that, she explained how the developers came up with the designs:

The new badge rewards (for Fury of the Sunwell) were designed to fit in with the theme of the Blood Elves just as the Zul'Aman gear fits in with the theme of Zul'Aman.

It is pretty much impossible for Blizzard to please everyone when it comes to certain design decisions such as art used in the game since beauty is subjective. This blogger feels that they're doing a pretty good job on this, and he's pretty sure that there are others out there that feel the same way. What do you think?
