World of Warcraft: Forever has a nice little toggle that lets you switch between Classic's old-school models and Retail's newer, shinier ones. But which one are you using?

Personally, I'm sporting the HD models. The big braided mohawk style on trolls just looks so much better. You can see a little comparison of my current Forever Shaman up in the ol' header image; peep how she looks in each style and let me know which one you like more!

She joined PC Gamer in 2020 as a news writer and now lends her expertise to write a wealth of features, guides and reviews with a dash of chaos. She can often be found causing mischief in Final Fantasy 14, using those experiences to write neat things about her favourite MMO. When she's not staring at her bunny girl she can be found sweating out rhythm games, pretending to be good at fighting games or spending far too much money at her local arcade.
