Continuation of New Customisation Options for: Void Elves, Blood Elves, & misc high elves

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

The new eyes are pretty neat! Have you checked how they look in Telogrus lightning?

[Kyuu-bronzebeard]

I have not but Sela will look wonderful with that too.

So ahh when is wanting hair colors like red, white, and blonde consider a bad thing?

[Lannisterian-tichondrius]

When it continues to steal from Blood Elves.

And you actually outright said you wanted all the Blood Elf hairstyles.

[Alamara-goldrinn (Alamara)]

I just did!
The other purple eyes glow brighter, but these ones are nicer.

@Nicodemùs-argent-dawn

things may continue to remain lackluster if you spend your time talking about shared themes rather than continuing to ask for the options you want Blood Elves to have so they aren’t lackluster anymore.

I’m not going to be quiet while people who can’t recognize they already have the better part of the deal in compromise skewed in their favor pick the last pieces of Blood Elves away.

Because to me we could still not get anything anyways, and still have something to lose.

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

Ah! I wanted to know if they look similar to how VE eyes looked during 8.3 (less entirely glowy, more localized on the iris instead)

[Alleriara-moon-guard]

Yes i a gree. They are the same race after all.

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

Well, as long as you remain stuck on the mentality that you are losing anything when it’s factually untrue, things are not going to get better.

@Deemspring-proudmoore

If we get generic hair, even if it isn’t literally Blood Elf assets, it’s still stepping further into that visual theme of generic elf.

And if it’s with new hair styles, then any of said new hair styles could’ve gone to Blood Elves but went to Void Elves instead, which basically is stealing. Saying ‘the hair styles come from Alliance races so it’s fair’ doesn’t really work, since hair styles have specifically crossed faction lines in the past.

Again Somand gave a good example of what I and others mean when we talk about this.

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

And you literally are missing my point still; if you share something, you are not “losing” it. If blood elven aesthetics only have value to you because only you can choose them, then you don’t value them for what they are and what they mean in context, you just value them because someone else can’t have them.

Nonetheless, VE’s can have hair colors that are more natural without being the exact same shades than BE’s, so they won’t look the exact same. But if all you care is about claiming exclusivity over an aesthetic, can’t vibe with that.

And you’re missing mine, as it’s very obvious which biases you push.

[Alamara-goldrinn (Alamara)]

I’ll take a picture in some dark place later.

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

I literally want people to fulfill the fantasies they want, that’s why I supported blue eyes for Blood Elves even when it’s not my jam too.

What horrible, horrible biases I have.

Meanwhile you also champion the last uniqueness of Blood Elves to go to Void Elves because “no one loses anything”. Yeah well you don’t see Blood Elves gaining anything either, and I see a very big deal in the form of a compromise already existing.

But thanks for supporting a single eye color!

I mean you literally forgot golden and green eyes in that “last uniqueness of Blood Elves” rant, I guess you do believe Blood Elf identity is literally on their hair color.

If all BE’s are is that to you -not their history, not their struggle, not their perseverance- no wonder you are literally shaking at the thought of sharing the aesthetics to any degree.

Oh so you haven’t seen the HE fans ask for these yet? You’ve been gone too long to notice I guess. Or are you just one of the people who equate an eye color to an entire visual theme?

LOL wrong again but not surprised

Are you going to say that to all Blood Elf fans that are interested in protecting Blood Elf things?

[Turokan-scarlet-crusade]

I mean you always forget I’m a blood elf fan too, but I guess I’m not a “real one” because I don’t agree with your notions of “protecting blood elf identity”. Because again, BE are more than their aesthetics -lorewise they have shared that with HE’s since the beginning- and that you, and others, continue to link the integrity of BE identity to hair color of all things is frankly, insulting.

No! Bad! Your spelling is off!

Funny I think that’s all that is left to protect I don’t think anyone started out protecting hair? Or is that just you being selectively disingenuous with that statement?

Because I don’t recall what was done for Blood Elves with what has been lost so far? Gender restrictions on the jewelry? An eye color that you oh so advocated for apparently despite not liking it because you’re just such an amazing unbiased person?
