People are going to complain, but I want this more than
any
of the Horde mounts.
*Pfft*... Sure Bro... sure
Some of us do actually really like horses. I only picked up Alliance because I could get horse mounts. I racechanged my Horde paladin from tauren to blood elf purely so I could get a pony.
I'm super excited to have horses to ride that aren't ugly as sin. I'm sorry that you aren't, but that's okay, because there are 300+ currently obtainable mounts you could ride instead. It's not like you're stuck riding the iconic Alliance faction mount (hell, you'll even be able to get the Horde collector's edition raptor from a mythic dungeon!).
The animations are still terrible (the skeleton is all wrong, clearly whoever made it in the first place never actually looked at how a real horse moves) but the new model disguises it a bit. The Seabraid Stallion's pretty great and I'm very happy to get access to more of its ilk.
And wolves were/are far more exciting than horses. And there were stables in garrison with wide selection of new mounts.
The wolves were only more exciting to you because you're alliance and thus didn't have access to wolves before WoD. Horde felt exactly the same about the wolves as you do about the horses, because the wolves are also the generic faction mount nobody wants to ride because of the janky skeleton and poor animations.
I play both factions, but my main is Horde since MoP. Also this BS about WoD being full of Wolves as BfA is full of horses has to stop

I see one wolf in the rep. Rest is scattered trough stables, rare spawns, professions, etc
So far all Alliance reps have horses. And not even great horses, but horses that could pass for model update on existing horse mounts.
It is not even funny look:

Looks really good. Loving these new HD horse models. Amazing how many Horde are taking the time to explain at length how much they DON'T want it. Not seen much of that on their mount pages, but can't imagine why.
Why on God's earth are you assuming everyone that hates copy/paste bull^&*! is Horde?
Has nobody noticed that this armor is literally copy/pasted from the Catacylsm wind drake mounts?

This is shameful, blizzard.
The previous two horse mounts' armor is taken from the Demon Hunter's Felsaber mount, too.

Recolored. The saddle is turned around and the spike removed, but it's otherwise clear that's the same mesh.
Holy %^&*, thanks for pointing this out.
If that's from some kind of mega salty mount collector discord I want in lol
