New Customization Options for Blood Elves and Void Elves

void elves that weren’t corrupted enough to have their skin colors changed wouldn’t have been shunned.

Yeah they would though? They’re still infused with the void. Blood elves are not.

Now that Blizzard is giving Velf the Belf skin tone. Would it then be possible to give Kul’Tirans, human body options alongside all the new upcoming human customization?

[Malochai-moon-guard (Malochai)]

Yes! I see the barber shop for most of my elves, on both sides!!

@Zellatrix-aegwynn

Please revert these terrible changes. You are literally giving alliance one of our core races. This is just dumb.

It was an Alliance race long before it was ever a Horde one!

Honestly I expected Blizzard to drag this one an expansion or two more. Glad this is done!

[Delbert-deviate-delight]

You seem a bit salty.

Hello Linxy!

On the pictures you showed, Void Elves with fair skins currently also sport Blood Elf (red) underwear. Can you make sure that the devs do not just copy the Blood Elf textures wholesale, but actually modify them so Void Elves keep the correct blue underwear? Thanks!

Don’t you worry, Void Elves will go back to wearing their darker underwear in the future.

[Starlagosa-dentarg (Starlagosa)]

Thank you so much for the new eye color options for Blood Elves.

[Karaatu-moon-guard]

Don’t be silly. Velfs and Belfs are absolutely not the same race. You can tell them apart as soon as the clothes come off.

[Zellatrix-aegwynn]

Linxy, tell the devs to give us void elf hair if you’re going to give them one of our core races.

I’m so excited, I can finally resub! I quit back in August of 2018 when it became apparent Ion and Blizzard weren’t acting in the best interest of players, and I said I wouldn’t sub until High Elves were confirmed. Now they are, so I can proudly say I’m back. Thank you for taking this step back towards being the “for the player” Blizzard we all know and love.

I’ve been fighting for High Elves for the 13 and a half years I’ve been playing. I’m so happy they’re finally here.

And, I can finally say,

breathes in

FOR THE ALLIANCE!

Is it time to discuss where the new Void High Elf capital city could go? I guess Teldrassil or Lordaeron has some new land mass to be built upon

[Zellatrix-aegwynn]

You’re a knock off blood elf. Not a high elf

[Plaguestone-thrall]

Great Scotts…the Maw just froze over.

[Zerde-sargeras (Zerde)]

As per Ion they are one and the same race

[Kallox-draka]

I think a better question is, how are the grunts in Orgrimmar supposed to tell which of the 3 different Hordes they belong to? And whether they should be repairing Orgrimmar or burning it down again…

[Anthaniel-moon-guard (Anthaniel)]

I must admit to a speechless length…

I am moderately paragraphless.

Its not 100% but its 90%, 95%, maybe more, and its certainly beyond what I thought I would see. If this is a compromise then I would not be so churlish as to complain.

It took well over a decade and a half, but you know what? I can leave that right back under the bridge where I found it.

Its not easy to stand over on the greener grass, but I am looking forward to the next developments, a recklessly untethered optimism, finally excited to create something in the game through my own actions.

I will add my own thanks to the list and then adjourn to fry up some similarly stunned crow among my amazed compatriots.

[Reeven-thrall (Reeven)]

Thanks Linxy!

[Delbert-deviate-delight]

Rebuild Gilneas.

[Kyuu-bronzebeard]

Maybe they could help rebuild Gnomeregan?

[Jinsu-emerald-dream]

We get it Brittney Spears, you’re jealous you have competition now and btw you’re actually the true knock off of the High Elf race ENJOY letting it sink in.
