Yep, I agree. All races should be neutral.
But guess who’s against that…?

Yeah, antis :rofl:

Give us a big old Mohawk haircut, then you’ll be able to differentiate the Elvish strains. I’m tired of looking like Goku. Or worse.

With dark rangers added to void elves they have shown that there doesn’t have to be lore to support giving velves horde elf customization.

There are no blood elf themes or customization that void elves won’t leech off of and take.

You have had almost a decade to deal with something like this. You do realize pandarens are exactly the same race as well?

Its not so bad when its a one off panda race. That was introduced to the game with that in mind.

Honestly, these “visual distinction” arguments needs to end. You got other games out there that don’t restrict customizations on playerable characters, such as Final Fantasy XIV, but here in WoW, you got customization that is restricted and people wanting more restrictions.

And the void elves were suppose to be the (failed) answer to us having high elves. Get use to void elves, they are not going anywhere.

You are comparing apples to oranges. Wow is built on the Horde and Alliance conflict. Ffxiv isnt build on that in mind. Sure you got the Grand Companies but those are nowhere near the WoW rivalry.

My pandaren popped by to say “No they don’t!” before going back to whatever it is pandaren do, and I’m pretty sure she knows a thing or two more about this than you.

Ok, so what does “Alliance vs Horde” have to do with how one persons character actually looks? Factions have nothing to do with customizations.

The Horde and Alliance conflict is stale as hell at this point. No one side can win, no one side can even make significant headway.

The RTS games can have winners and losers because those games reset to zero with every match. Not so much with a persistent world.

How I wish it was for the rest of the Allied Races.

Fortunately, the only one that went wrong with this formula was for Mechagnome in the fact that it is more customization than a very racial difference, something like the Wildhammer dwarfens.

When that finally happens immediate recognition of what race it is will be a huge pain for me. shrug

Not saying it’s a bad thing. I just find it incredibly annoying that I find myself wasting/losing several seconds most times trying to figure out ‘friend or foe’ because I look at general silhouettes to quick identify that stuff.

I love my void elves, but I do wish there were more void options that would allow them to be a bit more …creepy.
