but that is the issue and what the compromise failed on making it not a compromise.
The pro side doesnât care about the model. Meanwhile the anti side cares about it and those important lore points I have no idea which you are talking about but the void elf lore is blood elf lore.
What lore points that alliance high elves have could possibly hurt your side? The lore we care about starts when they separated after the second war. The shared history before than matters little.
of course they are popular. They have the blood elf model. The masses love that. However the masses are a non factor in this discussion.
Of course they are. You are now just completely disregarding the opinions of anyone who doesnât think exactly like you do.
The people that donât care about this and the lore as a whole are not a factor.
They are easy to please. Just make the game run and play well. It is the non majority that matters and needs more detailed attention to keep happy. All separated in different groups that often overlap. A very complex web.
Of course they are a factor and you are making a massive assumption AND deciding that the only compromise is one specifically for you and your group. Also (as we have seen) even a lot of people here donât care about lore, they just want fair skinned elves on Alliance.
People want high elves on Alliance.
Blizzard does gives the reskinned BE who are High Elves.
That is a massive compromise.
Now you wanting just a specific group of HE that only really existed for a relatively small period and that lore wise are just blue eyed blood elves donât see it that. So again you donât see it as a compromise because your specific group didnât get exactly what you want (which would be the only solution you would be happy with).
oh your new mog is awesome. good thread too.
Define what you think an appropriate compromise is.
I really donât get the logic that the antis push about void elves being the compromise they are happy with. Void elves are literally the thing that antis say they donât want alliance high elves to be. They have the exact same story and lore. They have the same model.
The only difference is the color palette. If that is truly what is cared about by the antis then all I can say is your are vain and petty and not worth considering in this debate.
I know it is harsh. I donât care. Petty things such as appearance being similar is not an issue worth discussing. We have proposed the compromise we are willing to accept in regards to appearance. If that isnât good enough for the anti side then goodbye. we will not be trying to consider the anti side if they are remaining steadfast on the issue of color palette.
Changing that does go against lore. Void elves not only donât have the high elf story we want but they also seek taboo power which is a no no with high elves.
if i say, hey the game youâre playing, do they have minotaurs and you showed me high mountain, iâd be confused - not because high mountain arenât cool, but because they dont really look like minotaurs. hehe
Awe thank you 
looking impeccable yourself on the hunter! Iâm still shadow for now but I missed being holy so I may go back to holy this is my holy lewk well one of them anyways.
oh and you have level 3! grats.
I am just full of these surprises hehe 
ty again! I am able to post images like I did in the OP too!
correction: they want high elves that look like high elves. not elves that look like dark elves or elves that look like a belf and a draenei had babies. hehe. void elves are snazzy, but they arenât actual high elves, as you can see. /toothy grin
Yes.it.does. I have already shown you that HE and BE are physically the same. There is nothing in lore to support the images shown here. NOTHING.
Also HE would not have the HE story you are asking for. That story is done and over and you would have to pretend that you were apart of it. It would be nearly the exact same as pretending that your VE was a HE who was suduced by the void instead of a BE.
not if they were mostly half elves all this time and just retained elven features, tamped down a bit to show the human part has effected them. then just keep the royals like alleria and veressa, as the pure high elves, since theyâd likely be the last to assimilate
A story is not comparable to gameplay.
But that is not lore either. Up until the third war they were the same group mostly living in the same areas. For instance most of the HE story we have in game is the Silver Covenant which are the Dalaran HE who didnât join KT Sunstrider in defending Silvermoon. We have their opposite of the Sunreavers who were the Dalaran HE who did join KT Sunstrider in defending Silvermoon and joined him in changing their names.
We are niche narrative, separate from the HE request! 
actually it is, and could be defined further if they were to be playable. for example, ion keeps saying they are being assimilated by the surrounding culture they live in and elisande referred to them as having diluted bloodlines. thatâs part of assimilation.
oopsie. that post from ankh is from me.
