Right, but it feels like when people say its coming to Alliance its saying only Alliance players want High Elves when lots of people on both sides want them.
Iâll let them do it for me.
oh absolutely. i dont for one second think its about the lore of raising children in dalaran or sitting in a hut. the blood elves ARE the high elves of wow and we all have the option of playing one no one is stopping them but themselves
Back in WoD days, they talked about getting new races in there. It seems like ARs were getting planned a while back. Ion said people requested High Elves back then and mentioned them as a popular request. Times change. Devâs decisions change. Thats why this thread is here. To show Blizzard how much support High Elves have.
They can even play one on the Alliance!
Sure. Pretty much 3/4 of the people who play Sinâdorei actually want Quelâdorei.
People will willfully ignore why we want them and try to diminish their lore, often while also diminishing blood elf lore as well.
Nothing we say will sway them, and most arenât here for genuine discussion.
Whoa now. You got some figures for that 3/4 number? I want High Elves just as much as the next guy but that number seems high.
I donât want to play a Sinâdorei, I want to play a Quelâdorei.
Thats not an argument youâre going to win against Fyrebusche. Ive triedâŠmultiple times. Im done showing the evidence to them. You can try but I doubt itll have any effect lol.
they sure did. ion mentioned them with the subrace comment back in wod, so development thought about it and gave you void elves because high elves are already playable
they get so excited when a new expansion launches and 1-3 are added as flavor, which actually suggests they are just that; a tiny nearly dead few individuals clinging to an adjective and not an âintegral part of the story and identity of the allianceâ but flavor prop NPCs
and i want to play a fogsail pirate horde human
there are far more humans helping the horde in BFA
*Is taunted by a video a year and a quarter old, ignoring everything thatâs happened since then and the fact that the statements are far from definitive.
For a moment he wonders why Tarrok wasnât there to set the record straight on someone using the video to mean something it didnât say⊠But then succumbs to the Hopelessness*
Youâre right!
How could I have ever believed Alex Afrasiabi!?!?
And Ion⊠stringing me along with his Q&Aâs! Telling me he was listening to our Feedback on what we wanted to playâŠ
Iâm so easily deceived!
Why, oh why hadnât I listened to the Developer Roleplay from the people who donât want the Alliance to have playable High Elves for all of this year?!?
Dramatically throws himself to the ground, placing his forearm over his eyes
That doesnât mean high elves. His previous comments should have made that clear.
Your motivated reasoning is doing it to you.
im sorry did the reasons for denying playable alliance high elves go away? not sure why youd assume they would now accept feedback on the one race they flat out addressed and said
Giving that race directly to the Alliance would have blurred a lot of the lines between the two factions
ânoâ
You really donât know the the Difference between Quelâdorei and Sinâdorei do you?
They gave us Void Elves as a bad cop out. High Elves are not playable. I cant log into the game and make one.
I can make: Humans, Draenei, Dwarves, Night Elves, Gnomes, Worgen, Void Elf, Lightforged Draenei, Dark Iron Dwarf, Kul Tiran, Pandaren, Forsaken, Blood Elves, Orcs, Tauren, Trolls, Goblins, Nightborne, Highmountain Tauren, Magâhar Orcs, and Zandalari Trolls. Im actually on the character creation page right now. I dont see High Elves anywhere on here.
the difference is a political opinion
read blood elves racial description at the character creator screen or read about blood elves on the official site in the game info tab
So you admit there is a difference? Politically?
im sorry if political opinion was enough to make a core race neutral whats the point of the factions
