it would be nice if retail skin colors, hairstyles and haircolors were available to tbc character models without changing the bodies/faces/animations of tbc character models
Actually they are right tho, it’s the lore of the game.
But hey now days the game lore is meaningless any way; make them chartreuse with neon pink polka dots.
darker skin makes me think of sun, yeah a hell of a lot more than my pale staying inside self
that’s the logical part of your brain going “someone associated with the sun should have a tan”
the fantastical part should see fair skin and flaming red/gold hair and think “wow they’re glowing”
They’re using their alts to argue on their own behalf.
Horray science! Most people don’t realize we’re closer to the sun during the winter in the northern hemisphere. We just get indirect sunlight.
and have you seen the conniptions people have around here toward anything that comes from Retail?
Reeee intensifies
wow they’re glowing”
Exactly. It’s because they are! Blood elves don’t get darker. They soak up that light and glow. There’s a distinct difference in the tanned human skin tone and the glowy skin of blood elves.
It’s funny cause you think you have an argument but then the existence of dark iron dwarves… really shows you’re wrong.
Dark skin and red hair is fire/ sun
How does “it’s literally written in the god damn lore” not count as an argument? Holy hell you are dense
Now you’re comparing 2 different races. Blood elves literally glow with sunlight. And the dwarves are under ground. By your logic they should be nearly translucent.
They’re not lightforged draenei, they aren’t glowing
Cause it isn’t… you haven’t linked a single example when I have
Light forged draenei don’t exist in this time. The blood elves are glowing. You’re comparing retail and classic. That’s your problem.
The Dark Iron Dwarves are Dark because of the Dark Iron they’re made of.
You’re making stuff up… looks terrible to lie cause it says this no where
Yes everyone disagrees with you and I’m the wrong one. You don’t even know why dark iron dwarves are dark despite being under ground. You’re also applying retail logic to classic.
Retail races and lore do not exist right now and thus are irrelevant and do not apply.
I know right?! It’s almost like they are a completely different species that has ZERO relation to humans who just so happen to the the descendants of the Vrykul; a fierce race of warriors made by the Titans to battle the corruption of the old gods.
Meanwhile elves are the unclean descendents of trolls that must be extinguished from all existence.
Meanwhile elves are the unclean dependents of trolls that must be extinguished from all existence.
Uhm… you better not mean night elves.
I mean there’s a darker more tanned complexion for the original blood elves in tbc too…
Well they all come from trolls, just some more so than others if ya know what I mean
Correct but even that one still has a glow to it even if it’s more subdued than the rest.
