I can’t believe they didn’t do High Elves either. That seemed like the easiest lay-up in the world.
Not that I think the Harronir are necessarily bad – players have asked for them.
But they do also feel a bit…irrelevant? I can’t help but think that their zone and race was intended for The War Within and now they’ve been lumped into Midnight.
But we’ll see. With more context it perhaps makes more sense.
But yeah, bonkers that Blizzard didn’t do High Elves.
I mean after Dracthyr and Earthen it was expected that the trend of weird looking and lazy new races continues. (Not saying that High Elves wouldn’t be lazy either.)
Altough I don’t like them, unfortunately many people asked for them. Why they did that is beyond me because they are really hideous and probably won’t bring much to the table when it comes to racials or race related quests. But you know this is one of those things that people are asked for and they delivered them. So good for them I guess.
I think the request has been for the Silver Covenant kind of High Elves under Vereesa, or the Shen’dralar from Dire Maul, or something like that.
To say that all High Elves are Blood Elves or Void Elves shows lack of understanding of lore and story. It’s not like Blizzard couldn’t make High Elves work if they wanted to. They seemingly just don’t want to.
