If they won't let us be kobolds the least, the very least they could do if they don't care about lore, it's let us be little frog guys

Oh, froggy went a croaking and he did die .. mmm hmmm! Uhhh HUH!
Until they hop to it, you can play a munchkin and tell everyone you're off to see the wizard.
Or, U80 brought us Oompah-Lumpahs, though SSG has misspelled the race name.

It's not the same
It simply isn't. Playing what is ostensibly a short human with pointy ears isn't a frog, isn't a rat, isn't a kobold. If I wanted to digitally cosplay as a Keebler elf, I would have by now, but I just want to yip, yap and yark
We have suffered the fate of npc mediocrity for long enough, offering only quests, experience, treasure bags and infinitely stimmable dialogue samples. We can no longer yark in the dark

No sign of the yarkness coming
We've been left on your own
Like a yarkbow in the dark

It's also an untapped potential new player population - there's a lot of kobold enthusiasts out there.

The original reason was having to redo all the armors and helms to fit the Kobold models. The cost was too high at that time. In the future it may be easier.

I know what the reason was ... I never believed that and still don't. They have since added other races that required a similar effort. Ok ... I am going to stop beating around the bush, it is kobold discrimination. I won't stand for that any longer!!!!!

Agree 100%. Skinning kobolds might get a little gory, but it'd be worth it!

Maybe he doesn't, but obviously you like logical fallacies.

Just use the same grow animation of Duergar on a Deep Gnome, so he can stretch out to a Kobalds height and use their armor/cosmetics.
It's not very filling, but kobold chicharron is amazing!

Yark, yark! the lark at Stormreach’s gate sings,
And kobold grins arise,
His quest is marked, his blade is drawn,
A gleam within his eyes;
And every dungeon he doth enter
His foes are left in gasping sighs:
With every shiny thing to steal,
My kobold sweet, thus cries:
Shinies, shinies!
Special thanks to Shakespeare, who lent his words to be koboldified...
Kobold remembers Waterworks.
Kobold never forgets.

Hey, gamers? I know that you know this is a discussion about what kind of fantasy body type a lot of us would like to be player accessible, and I know that a lot of y'all have deeply held beliefs about what real gaming should look like, but maybe don't talk about killing people en masse or skinning sapient beings.
And for absolute sure, no matter which side of this you're on, you shouldn't be calling anything anywhere any kind of master race.
I just want to play as a kobold, gamers, you don't have to weigh in if you hate the idea.

We haven't even locked in on playable kobolds yet and you're already in the year 2038 with your playable sealion

This is exactly the hate that I am talking about. There will absolutely be no skinning of kobolds once they are in the game. Other than still hating you, what have kobolds ever done to you?!?!?
