Woah, wait, what?
May I pass officer?
You may, I declare you a playable high elf.
Unless you know, you wanna try some void?
Instructions unclear you are a night elf
Donât drop the whole cyborg high elf stuff, make it a thing.
Mecha high elves are inevitable and they will join the alliance
Can one of their radials be a transforming ray-gun arm?
Done, but its just worse Arcane Torrent on a longer cooldown with less range.
Yes it should be
Stop trying to make Alliance High Elves happen.
Itâs not going to happen.
Why are people so bothered that weâre going to keep asking?
Some people just like being kill-joys I guess. Most people who donât care for the subject have moved on by now, presumably; either because theyâre sick of the subject (whether theyâre pro or anti) or simply donât have much more to say.
Thatâs as I imagine it, at least.
Or perhaps people have some legitimate concerns that brushing away as them being big meanie pants who live to cause suffering in others doesnât really address.
At least they stopped with the whole âracistâ bit.
How is asking for an allied race such a bad thing though? We donât even know if High Elves will ever be added anyway? Most responses Iâve seen that are against the idea donât hold up very well as they tend to be some variation of âno because I said soâ. And then the other camp of against seem to be relying on lore that no longer seems as reliable.
That being said it is obviously in the end Blizzâs decision to make. People are free to suggest whatever Allied Race they want. Whether or not they listen to concerns remains to be seen.
As opposed to âYes, because I want it!â.
âUnreliableâ like trying to argue a formal organization that doesnât exist into the lore?
Itâs not the asking. Itâs the way some people deny us the same courtesy to raise our concerns about what we feel might go wrong with it. Weâre told weâre not sincere and just in it to be nasty for nastinessâs sake.
Ask all you want, no oneâs saying you shouldnât ask. Theyâre saying you shouldnât receive high elves.
No what tends to happen is we give points and helfers dismiss them out of hand because they want a thing and they donât care about anything that could challenge that.
There are literally thousands of posts on the subject from people against the addition of high elves. It is incredibly condescending to think that in all those posts thereâs no legitimate concerns and itâs just people being pricks.
Which isnât the only argument. Iâm not saying that there arenât legitimate arguments against High Elves, only that most of them seem to be either in bad faith, or relying on Lore that may no longer be as steady. âŠwhich to be fair to everyone here, regardless of which side you take, canât really be helped. If Blizzard wants to do something theyâll make it happen, even if it means retcons galore.
Itâs also a bit dishonest to suggest that Iâm saying that every post thatâs ever been against High Elves is âjust people being pricksâ, donât you think? I never said that at all.
