Danuser said nothing. He gave a vague little shuffle about might bes and maybe we’ll sees to a question it doesn’t look like they want to answer. He certainly didn’t make the hard declaration that was put in his mouth.

Danuser blatantly says that High Elves and Blood Elves are actively joining and becoming Void Elves. If you’re going to deny that, there’s really nothing that can be done to help you and you’re just showing your true colors. It’s almost sad really that your only defense is to deny the evidence.

Q: “Where do the numbers come from?”
A: “Other elves have found out about them.”

You do you though :hugs:
Pros: +1 | Antis: -1

I’m not seeing those words coming out of him. I see a vague statement that elves have heard about them and could seek them out and see if they could do what they did. For example “would see IF they could undergo a similar process”

Having thought about it a bit, I mean it’s an opening for the “If you want to say your void elf isn’t one of the generic background ones that started with Umbric, there’s empty space in the story you can work with” But it’s not some hard fact one way or the other of what’s going on with the void elf numbers, no matter how hard you want it to be.

Actually, it became irrelevant when void elves themselves were introduced, which is a thing some of us pointed out with void elves to begin with. They’re a “race” pulled out of thin air and a rip off of blood elves.

Blizzard should’ve just given the Alliance the High Elves that we already had.

Bingo. Or not stepped into the “we are gonna do a race swap” territory at all.

Honestly
 I think ARs were one of the worst things they did now that it’s essentially all said and done.

It was particularly bizarre given the prominence of high elves in BfA. The main warfront portal lady is a high elf, there are high elven forces at Stromgarde, they added wandering high elf adventurers to Stormwind, there are high elves in some of the island expeditions, and Vereesa was more prominent than she’s been since WOTLK or MoP. Plus there’s Alleria, who, despite ostensibly being a void elf, looks entirely high elven.

As much I like the concept and aesthetic of void elves, there’s no reason not to add high elf customisation options.

I’ve said this on the forums several times, Blizzard shot themselves in the foot with this one. They thought Void Elves would satisfy the High Elf community, it didn’t, now they trying to appease them with the skin tones, which still isn’t what they wanted 100%. Should have just saved themselves the trouble, done High Elves, which they could have made unique enough with various customization options and been done with it.

Sure there is. The horde fanboys whining about it. But now there is just the hair color separating the two. They might as well give both races the high elf look and diverge them with other customizations. So far Blood elves have both fel and Light as sources of power. It would make sense to have customizations that reflect this.

This attitude is kind of yucky. Not as yucky as impersonating people, but still pretty yucky.

I slept quite well knowing we’re a day closer to our desires being listened too.
How about yourself?

Pretty sure if you just make the habit of quoting yourself over and over again it’s spam. And adding nothing new to the convo, kind of sad but not unsurprising given the other rather insecure behavior we’ve seen. And that’s like the third or fourth time they’ve reposted that text since posting it originally 2 days ago.

Doing well. Got myself a coffee and took my dog for a long, long walk. He needed it.

I know, I’ve seen it, it kind of makes me laugh but look at the source.
