Why the lack of Customization?

If every race got the same amount of options every patch, then everyone would be happy. But that wasn’t my point.

Equality does not equal equity, though.

Giving everyone the exact same number of skin tone combination possibilities is vastly different than offering high quality content that is in line with the desired customization.

A prime example being Void Elves. It doesn’t matter how many “void” themed customizations were offered, players were asking for an entirely different present (that being the High Elf aesthetic).

Even if every building in town gets a staircase so that we can all get inside, people in wheel chairs are still going to be unhappy because there is no ramp.

Not that we’re entitled to customizations here, just to clear that up. But I think it’s important to keep in mind that the company makes big strides when they actually listen to what players are asking for, instead of just shoving ridiculous things at us and hoping we’ll shut up because “now everyone has the same thing”.

Also, as a whole, it doesn’t matter how many options some races get if it doesn’t actually add aesthetic diversity.

It’s a huge problem with the Alliance right now.
We had “too many humans”, while the Horde got new aesthetics and entirely new made up races.

Doesn’t matter how many options Kul’tirans get when it’s just another human and the main complaint was “too many humans”. That didn’t help the problem; it only made it worse. Especially with the counterpart was “dinosaur mayans” that were also one of the most requested faction specific races in the last decade.

At this point, some races having more customization to fix that lack of aesthetic diversity is what would actually be fair.

If Night Elves have more options and cover more subraces than Nightborne, then that is fine. If Void elves get San’layn ontop of High Elves, that is fine. If Dwarves get Frostborn and Dark Irons get ActualIron dwarf customizations, that is fine.

Because we just have less actual races with aesthetic diversity, and just expanding on what we have more is the only way to fix things without giving the Horde like 2 more kinds of orcs to make up for BFA.

Also, I’ll always say it;
If they really want to make an impact on the faction morale issues, give us a Horde request and one that’s actually popular. Won’t fix playability issues, but we could really use something after BFA.

I’m still just shaking my head over the fact Fallynn started this whole thing over her comment of humans are boring and she hates the Alliance. (Which she later edited mind you) And all I said in reply is elves are just humans with pointy ears. Somehow she took that as a personal attack for some odd reason and attacked me back then couldn’t take the heat when I called her out on her attack. Oh logic your so much better when people use you rather than have a knee jerk reaction. Sad thing is her ideas for customization seem well thought out but if she takes a simple comment as a personal insult the conversation was doomed from the start. Pity, that it went down the way it did buy hey that’s life not everyone gets along.

Blood Elves are literally just an attractive human model in this game.
Any of them complaining about “alliance boring” is just cringe, because they’re literally playing a race introduced to the horde because they were “pretty” enough to get people to actually play there in TBC.
