The only thing I can say about the Nightborne is they do have organic chemistry with the Blood Elves. They had the option to join either, and it makes sense with their shared plight situation similarities to be friends but beyond that, both are descended from Highborne cultures though Blood Elf culture shifted from the traditional way the Nightborne kept up the culture I still think it makes sense for the two Highborne descended races to be close.
So when choosing allegiances I took it a little more like Thalyssra wanted to like the Night Elves, heard what Tyrande had to say and was more of a major eye roll like âhere we go againâ the way Highborne culture was so perfectly preserved with the Nightborne (I know some Highborne did go back to NE society but they didnât have the epicenter of Suramar to fall back on) I just donât think the two would have got on very well. So when making the decision she went with who she felt related and understood her people better and who genuinely had a better bond.
I know a lot of Alliance dislike that but I have to say it was one of the things Blizzard has done that Iâve agreed with the most, Blood Elves and Nightborne getting on just fits, no matter how unhappy some people may be about it. On the other hand the continued hesitation of including Alliance High Elves is a decision I vehemently disagree with and believe they will include one day, but the decision to still not have them in as of now doesnât make sense and is one of my biggest side eye moments looking at Blizzards decisions.
She stated that Blood Elves going Horde didnât make sense.
Did you miss what she said, because this comment youâve made isnât connected to it at all.
Do you have a problem with context?
Starla, we all know that there is gaps within the lore to why Blood Elves joining the Horde. So yes, she is correct to some extent. It is more of âThe Blood Elves joining the Horde didnât make sense in some partsâ.
blood elves are high elves. they are virtually indistinguishable. if you want the high elf fantasy, you can have it. so you are in effect asking for blood elves
it was poor decision making only if you think high elves should have gone alliance and ignore everything between TFT wc3 expansion to TBC in wow
ah, just the overwhelmingly vast majority of high elves are blood elves
meaning what you are really asking for is blood elves because high elves are currently playable as THE BLOOD ELVES source: game director ion hazzikostas. do we still need to mark this as spoilers?
Irony.
