The void styles would still be an option though, so it takes nothing away and just adds options.
Iāmā¦not takign anythign away from them?
Void Elves have hair styles already that donāt have tentacles. So an easy way to expand the hairstyle options is to recycle the assets by providing variants of the existing styles without tentacles. The player can choose for themselves if they want to use the tentacled, or non-tentacled variants.
Hell, the non-tentacled variants could also be ported over to Blood Elves as well while weāre at it.
Iād love some of the current non tentacled ones to be for belves too.
So it appears.
āLetās make Void Elves look even less like Void Elvesā because we never wanted them to begin with.
Oh, well there you go! Thereās your path of least resistance for Blizzard - a simple retexture job that provides more options for Void Elves & Blood Elves alike.
I canāt speak for other people but as a Blood Elf player if I wanted void tentacles I would go play a Void Elf and not ask for their unique styles for Blood Elves.
sorryā¦I misread your post. I thought you were suggesting blood elves get the tentacles.
Pretty muchā¦
Options until they arenāt.
Like I said, I can only give feedback and my feedback is that I donāt think we need anymore helf flavoring at the moment, and if Blizzard wanted to thatās really fine, but can we have some more void flavored new stuff before we get even more not void flavored new stuff for our void elves.
Iām hoping Blood Elves get version of Void Elf hair like the above. That one on the left would be perfect for my Blood Elf Priest.
Iāve seen more than a few Blood Elf players asking for the wavy-haired Void Elf hairstyles. shrug
EDIT: Just saw your edit. All good!
THIS is the hairstyle I think many Blood Elf Female players really want from Void Elves:
It has no tentacles and looks really sultry.
Yes, Iād love that for my belves.
The female Void Elf hairstyles are pretty great. I think theyād look awesome on Blood Elves, too (without tentacles, of course). Iām much less of a fan of the male ones. My feedback list for the male Void Elf hairstyles would be considerably longer. >.>
My only real wish for the Void Elf male current styles is versions of the receding hairline styles that arenātā¦ well receding. And Iād really really like that new short hairstyle Blood Elves seem to be getting but I wonāt cry about it if we donāt.
Yeah Iād love some of the new female belf styles, but I think if any are shared it would be the older ones, which is reasonable.
Donāt belves already have something very similar to that, or am I misremembering?
I donāt think Void Elves will be getting any of the ānewā Blood Elf hairstyles.
I mean I donāt think theyāre getting any Blood Elf hairstyles at all (or vice versa) - itās just the skintones at this stage IIRC?
Iād definitely like to seeā¦even if it was only one or two of the original Blood Elf hairstyles getting ported to Void Elves, and vice versa.
You keep saying this. Iām genuinely confused, do you actually think void options being taken away are even a remote possibility worth taking even the tiniest bit seriously? This seems like alarmism for itās own sake.
For all we know there arenāt even any other options coming outside of what weāve specifically been told. The chances are very high that if we do even get anything additional, itās going to be small steps. One or two new hairstyles, maybe with tentacles, maybe without, maybe both. People are just talking about what they think they would like to see, and yes, the reasons why can be varied, and donāt need to confirm to one narrow lane of what a Void Elf āshould beā. Thatās literally the mission statement of all of the customizations being added in Shadowlands for all of the races.
