Then that’s what would be an aesthetic compromise -IMO, the lesser compromise-
If you can look like a High Elf and play alliance, it’s already a step forward than the current options.
Look at my chat for instance. We make do with what we have, and while some people are “High Elf or Bust” some of us aren’t, so if a less voided skin tone for Void Elves, or factionless blue eyed Blood Elves, is all we are gonna get, we are just going to have to make do.
It’s not a matter of just caring about the aesthetics, but if that’s all we are gonna get?
Are you shocked that one isn’t as aware of others trolliness when it’s not aimed at you?
This is a bad definition, because it presumes that only the races that joined the Alliance at a certain period are “technically” alliance races at the exclusion of other.
If you are part of the Horde or the Alliance, you are a Horde or Alliance race.
By your own definition Blood Elves then aren’t a Horde race because they aren’t founding members…
