Is this blue eye thing like something anime people want? It’s just eyes.

Yeah female nelf players (not all, just a trend) have become super toxic.

Anyone that wants blue eyes on blood elves doesn’t know the lore and it shows.

Dalaran helves can be neutral. If you wanna RP a dalaran helf with family in silvermoon, it’s not lore breaking.

anyone who thinks ‘high’ elves are a major part of the alliance still actually are refusing to accept the lore, and it shows

And deny me the popcorn which is actually tasty? You are scary!

oh for sure, some will be mad or gloating
however Ion said they were NPCs
no playable characters are getting them
so its time to step away from the idea all together for the near future

If only. If only. We can all dream can’t we?

I’m still going to keep asking.
If there are people that want to argue about it they can argue with themselves.

Hope you get what you want.

However we all know that Blizzard does what it does best ever since BFA was activated:

Piss off both sides with one action

Thanks. :heart_eyes_cat:
I realize they can’t please everyone and I"m not going to throw a fit over not getting it. They’ve disappointed me before and I expect it to happen again. lol

This is what I don’t get about the wow developers.

The textures are there. People want more customization. But they wont do it because reasons… More choices is a good thing. And this is a choice you won’t get backlash on like covenants.

And this is as someone who couldn’t care less about blue eyed blood elves.

Their stated reason is “neutral races ruin lore potential” but they’ve been doing faction split helves since wrath and to me it seems fine.

I guess it hurt pandas but I feel like elf lore would fit this model perfectly.

Oh people will complain initially like anything it is the internet after all but after a couple of weeks people will forget just like the foxes.

there is 15 years of requests for alliance high elves. compared to only 2 for blue eyed blood elves.

Personally if the textures are there give it to all races. You see eye color variance in every animal (that has eyes, well and I guess pigmented eyes that are relatively close to our own and not like say a trilobites eyes) on earth. I’ve never understood why wow races were restricted in such a weird way in the first place.
