Default "The Hunger" vs. My Dog, Queta

Well, I was just sort of mindlessly taking a character through the "Maddok Caverns" mission and (uncomfortably) noticed that the animation for, "The Hunger," was something I would almost classify as...cute. Then I realized that his combat animation is relatively identical to my dog playing.

He had his front legs out in front with his chest on the ground; his butt in the air and his tail wagging. For some reason, instead of replaying the mission and blowing through the yard trash to take a second look, I thought I'd ask if anyone else noticed that?

My dog, btw, is a red Doberman/Pit Bull mix. She's awesome (but I don't think she has that life-stealing move that The Hunger uses).

I've noticed that. And when he's "feasting on someone's eyes" it looks like he's lapping up water from a bowl, which is also kinda cute. And he hops around and does Downward Dog when he's threatening you.

Dont think thats only your dog, I have a cousin who researches in a vetanarian hospital and is currently stationed with dogs. (kinda a cowincidence) and thats what means that dogs want to play. So when your dog does that and hunger does that they mean diffrent kinds of things, hunger=play with your arm in his stomach and your dog=throw a ball around.

I love dogs and have 2 and i think you should stop playing GW thinking about a mutated animated dog and pay attetion to your own

Dog? Beautiful? We are talking about an animal that licks its own butt and will gladly make a snack of fecal matter at a moment's notice then wants to lick your face.

If this weren't a public forum, I could say plenty about the disgusting things we humans have been known to do. Dogs will give you their unconditional love even with all your short comings and I can't say the say for people.

Teacher: "Where is your book report?!"
Me: "Ummm, the Hunger ate my homework."

I think it acts like a dog too, and found it quite funny that it licks its victims to death.

I definititly noticed it but didn't think too much of it. I personally thought of it as following what abaddon said and didn't think too much about who it else it might have been listening to
