Yes. They should be available to belves and velves, not more NPC only garbage.

I get that. I donât agree with it âredistributing man powerâ from other projects. Honestly it feels like every xpac since MoP has been thrown together and flying by the seat of their pants most of the time. Certain things in Legion felt right, but overall since MoP itâs felt really rushed and unpolished. I can see the money amount and return being an issue without real polling through the almost entire community.
It definitely depends on how theyâve set their database and how they are assigning objects honestly. Race seems to be a rather hardset with the option of adding classes to them. Given Magâhar are already able to be priests and fitting all the options that would be made available it wouldnât seem difficult. But I would bet QA could knock out that transition within a week.
Other options with fully different models would be a different beast. Though High Mountain, Dark Iron, Lightforged donât really have class options their main race donât have already.
To unless itâs adding in totems or druid forms the cost for adding the options to certain classes seems very minor. But thatâs my 2 cents. My background is with SQL, access, PHP, in medical and finance for QA. So itâs definitely a different beast with i assume more object oriented builds. But not impossible or incredibly difficult.

well part of the problem is, other game types with added ways to generate income are making huge amounts of money, much more than wow does, and their investors are likely asking them to trim fat constantly, just so their investment stays even marginally commensurate with the money generated by those other games. i havent done the math but i remember hearing the income on some of the more popular ones, and was shocked.

Well Iâd say WoW was the money tree that provided all the seed money for Hearthstone, SC2, Diablo 3, etc. So maybe giving back to the game thatâs been profitable for almost 2 decades isnât a big ask. And it will cease providing money if it withers and dies from lack of planning, quality content, etc.
Like how much money was saved by no blizzcon this year? Give that to the WoW team and their budget.

Velfs have every skin tone that Belfs have. So if belfs have the entire spectrum of helf skin colors, then velfs have the entire spectrum of helf skin colors, plus their own void options.

i remember reading the story of a guy who created the battlenet and worked on vanilla wow. he left wow when it went on the stock exchange because investors began trying to tamper with the devs. he then created guild wars. not sure why he left them. probably same reason. he made his own company after that. last i knew he was working on a zombie game with a bunch of other devs/artists/sound people who also were turned off by the whole problem of investors controlling the development of the game.

iâm just pointing out that belfs can make a helf.
velfs canât. not yet. though i think they need to give both belfs and velfs, braided hairstyles/beards and tats so they can play something more representative of a helf, rather than just some belfs with blue eyes, which is all helf npcs have been since tbc

I honestly blame EA for this type of void consumption of studios demanding money.
More studios I wish could work more like CD Projekt Red. When their done with their product youâll get it. And itâs always incredible.
this guy is a powerhouse

I said it before and have seen the pattern over every expac. They will hold off on other/major type options for a 9.x patch. It will be one of the bigger selling points to keep people interested or bring people back into retail for a bit longer.
well they could reinvigorate the game for sure with well done helfs, and also giving belfs and nightborne druid class. maybe add a new class like tinker or bard or both. a new profession like architect, and player housing. new stuff, ya know, like they use to do. hehe

fantastic. give him a couple braids and perfect belf helf
I love the idea of giving Blood Elves Druids, as they would have majestic forms as well as bring something a little bit different to the table while adapting the primary concepts. Same with Nightborne.

The demands are simple.
Supply a unisex version of Asunaâs Haircut from Sword Art Online and everyone would be happy.
