Of course.
I don’t tell people not to make their requests. I cannot control what people want.
I do often reiterate my personal opinion on the matter, that I want to focus on the Void aspect of Void Elves and not the high elf ones.
I do not do so to tell others not to make their requests.
I also understand the desire by Pro-Blood Elf folk to retain their unique qualities. For some people that matters.
While this is true, its not really that for most of them. Its the loss of their unique identity.
I am much less in this camp than I have probably seemed the last few… years. But I do love my Blood Elves and on some levels I can very much understand it especially given how shafted they were on customizations.
Couple that with seeing an AR on the other faction be given almost all of what you were given? I can see people being kinda unhappy about that.
Like I said above that matters a lot to some people.
If its such a small piece of a character it shouldn’t be that big a deal to either side.
In reality hair color and style can and often is a big deal. Its one of many prime ways we will attempt to discern ourselves from one another. People make big bold statements with their hair, or sometimes they make reserved and no-nonsense ones.
Hair and hair color I would say is very important. Even when its pixels.
I’ve made that argument before. As I am a big fan of the lore and storylines I have always seen the reasons why people want to play a high elf who remained on the Alliance.
That said I don’t want those stories to erase or hinder Void Elves. They’re a new race, with little behind them so far yet they have such potential.
Quite literally, many doors are now open to us.
Thats not to say that I think Helf-pros should stop seeking what they want to.
Nor do I think Belf-pros should stop seeking what they want as well.
They were a significant portion of the Alliances attacks on Zandalar. It seems to me these days they’re more interested in serving the Alliance than making many inroads to their kin.
I don’t know. Like I said, I’d prefer the recruitment and the other high elven groups to join the Void Elves more than I would want to see the Void Elves become subservient to another.
What would have been the point of Void Elves at all if they go down that path?
Blizzard said in an interview about them that they were researching the trap I believe. Its also not hard to imagine that Umbric and his group who were studying the Void before we arrived would have some ideas either way.
Again it took awhile for Alleria.
If they want to refine her process sure, it really doesn’t matter, but it should be a lot quicker.
And one of the main goals (as I laid it out) would be to show that any new void elves are in fact Void elves, as well as showing that the options available are Void options even if they look like High Elves to some degree.
Yes to the first, less so to the second bit.
Just saying you were the first of them intrinsically means that those types will die out eventually.
I’d personally like to avoid that.
