Quel’dorei High Elves as an Alliance allied race - 2024 (Part 1)

Those opposed to this request are fans as well. In fact, I would wager our vocal opposition played a part in why you got Void Elves in the first place rather than Blood Elf duplicates though the fact you are asking for a duplicate of a core Horde race, or to pervert Void Elves into something they aren’t, likely meant we were pushing at an open door on that one.

We don’t want to share. We never have. And in a game based on two mutually antagonistic factions that isn’t selfishness, that’s basic mechanics. We want our faction respected and we want Blood Elves accepted as the High Elf option in this game and so far, we have that and we have had that for decades.

Why are you so determined not to accept that our voice matters too and has mattered, even now, in Midnight, at the end of this discussion, because the simple fact remains if not now then when. Why always it’s about you and what YOU want.

I refuse to respect the arguments of someone whose contempt for the universe this game is set in was shown for all to see when you put forward your ludicrous ‘all races in both factions’ proposal.

I say again, you are playing in the wrong game, you fundamentally misunderstand this universe and what you want is so at odds with what everyone else is playing and invested in that the only benefit to be derived from listening to you is to figure out what absolutely must never, ever be done.

You have to read the ToS

the only thing you obtain with your sub is “Game Time”

Everything else belongs to blizzard, even your account and characters.

You have no right except respect rules, and right to play.

Those customisations aren’t High Elf customisations.

If they were High Elf customisations, Void Elf NPCs wouldn’t be able to use them. They would be kept exclusively for players so people would know this is a High Elf. Yet I see Void Elf NPCs using them, meaning it’s just a Void Elf skin tone. Invent your own reason.

Mine is that these are newer Void Elves who will go full blue in the fullness of time.

Ok, so you do think consumers have no rights at all. Sure, I accept that you hold that opinion, even if I disagree.

What makes Blizzard such a great companies in the eyes of its fans (including this one) is the fact that they actively listen to feedback. If they didn’t care about their fanbase’s opinions, there wouldn’t be a need for alpha and beta testing. The whole idea about choosing between killing the Amani or dissuading the Blood Elves from killing them was due to overwhelming fan feedback. You have senior quest designers who encourage people to petition for what they want.

There’s the meme that we shouldn’t be mean to the humble indie dev. But when they were unironically that, they were actively looking to their fans for inspiration and input. They wouldn’t be the big gargantuan conglomerate they are today without our support.

And fine, let’s assume your absolutist stance regarding Blizzard is correct. Customers are more than willing to take their business Elsweyr (pun intended) if they’re dissatisfied.

again, do not compare a feedback with 18years of harassment

if during 18 years you say to Mcdonald that their burgers taste s. and they change nothing for you during 18years
and during 18 years you see mcdonald adding many different flavors of other burgers like McVoidburger or McHaranir

but they never implement the High Wheat burger you asked

Just stop eating mcdonald

Btw the irony is

They is already the Blood Big Mac in madonald. and this burger is edible since the begining of the game.

And you re litteraly asking for the same burger but with a different box colour with “High Big Mac” written on the box

For the record, I have. I have ceased eating McDonalds for 29 years and counting.

again, do not compare a feedback with 18years of harassment

It’s a matter of opinion for you to characterise a popular request as “harassment”. Last time I checked, we’re simply making our opinion heard. We’re not making bomb threats or doxxing people. We are working within the confines of what is within terms of service to request something that has once existed within the game.

But you might be onto something. If High Elves are never added, perhaps I might have to bid this franchise a fond farewell. It’s why I’m still on the fence about pre ordering the expansion

Idc, you got the analogy.

“popular request”

litteraly 50 people on a 9 Million playerbase

But you might be onto something. If High Elves are never added, perhaps I might have to bid this franchise a fond farewell. It’s why I’m still on the fence about pre ordering the expansion

It wont happen

not because you want and they want make you angry
not because I dont want

just because high elves are already playable since 2007 and they not gonna make a copy paste of a race that NPCs lore are quiet all dead by numbers

Tbh i prefer retcon or never seen playable VE but playable HE for a nice rivalry between HE and BE with players.

But we cant change the past.

what is done is done

Nope there is no single elf in dalaran what says high elf. Look more void elfs with blue eyes so must be voids.

there is no void elve in dalaran as I remember Oo are you vaping void crystal ?

my friend all blue eyes npcs elves you see in dalaran who are alliance tag and blood elf look

they are all high elves.

we now the different because if you click on them they have all night elves voices

its how we make the different, lorewise, if its a HE or a BE

Well, also for the record, I hope McDonalds goes up in flames and declares bankrupcy. It has deceptive marketing practices and has encouraged very unhealthy habits in people.

(also, I find it very ironic that the person on the forums who has told me not to make IRL analogies has made an IRL analogy… whatever)

Blizzard, on the other hand, holds a special place in my heart. It’s because of my fond memories of Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness and Warcraft 3 that I actually foolishly hope they do well and wish nothing but the best for World of Warcraft. I love Blizzard, even if they don’t love me back. It’s why I’m posting on these forums.

But to paraphrase a Draenei, even a Blizzard fan’s patience has his limits

because you started to do it and you still dont understand that you cant put in the same bag “giving a feedback after a meal in a restaurant” and “harassing a company during 18years for feature they dont want to add”

whatever happens or not happens, if you re really a Quel’dorei fan and lover you ll play a blood elf character.

if you quit or still angry and crying years over years with knowing that factualy they wont add HE.

you re not a quel’dorei fan and lover, you re just a random elf enjoyer especially a tolkien one

It’s not a crime.

I m not a superman or a superelf. If I am a quel dorei lover and fan and I mourn the fact that they ll never be playable HE and now I definitetly love and appreciate the blood elf patern and mindset.

you can do it.

take a hit

Gabriela is proposing you a [Light’n’Arcane Vapo] but if you prefer it remains some [Fel’Vapo] from 2007 in the box

I would say play a void elf.

Yes they’re infused with the void, but they are alliance and their backstory is open for the player to write.

Were/are they a member of the silver covenant? That’s up to the player to decide.

If you want to play as a thalassian elf that’s always been with the alliance, void elves can offer that.

Remember when you asked AI chatbots whether or not high elves would happen? Remember when I said that I could also invoke a biased response from AI regarding that topic, but chose not to?

Just because I do it doesn’t mean you have to do it.

you re not a quel’dorei fan and lover, you re just a random elf enjoyer especially a tolkien one

I won’t combat the idea that I love Lord of the Rings but I do love the quel’dorei. I like the Quel’dorei. Hell, I like the Sin’dorei too, but I just dislike the fact the they’re on the horde, and as I’ve mentioned many times before, I can’t level someone on the horde, and won’t ever do so until High Elves are added.

Winners don’t do drugs err…

Winner don’t play Blood Elves!

Tried it.

Its painfully boring in comparison.

The void makes me glow in combat.

The light just makes my eyes a sickly colour.

(Plus the male blood elf voice is kind of annoying. “I neeeeeed to target something first”. God so whiny XD

I asked grok about an 8 mile rap battle lookalike.

Mic crackles. He spits fire like a Sin’dorei warlock.

Round 1 – Blood Elf:
Yo, step up, Void Elf, you shadow-sniffin’ reject,
Born in the Sunwell, I’m the prince you can’t protect.
Your skin’s all purple like you drowned in cheap merlot,
Whisperin’ to the Void like it’s your only hoe.
I’m sippin’ phoenix fire, you’re chuggin’ dark regret,
Your whole race got retconned—Alleria’s biggest threat.
Telogrus rift? That’s a cosmic porta-potty,
You’re the leftover lunch meat in the Void’s cold cut party.
I’m the hawkstrider king, you’re the discount worgen,
Beggin’ Umbric for scraps like a void-starved orphan.
Crowd: OOOOOOH!

[Void Elf – “Umbric’s Shadow” (pale, void-tentacle dreads, black trench coat stitched with star runes)]
Steps forward, eyes swirling with whispers. The beat drops darker.

Round 1 – Void Elf:
Blood Elf, you’re a junkie for the light you can’t afford,
Fel crystal in your veins, still kissin’ Kael’thas’ sword.
Your kingdom’s a crater, your prince is a ghost,
You’re cosplayin’ high elves—admit it, you’re toast.
I embraced the abyss, you’re scared of the dark,
Your mana tap’s a straw, mine’s a great white shark.
Silvermoon’s a brothel for warlocks and thieves,
While Telogrus trains gods—you’re still on your knees.
Your hair’s a distraction, your ego’s a crutch,
I’ll void-form your soul—call it “Sin’dorei touch.”
Crowd: DAMN!

[Blood Elf – Round 2
(angrier, faster, pacing like Rabbit in the final)]

You talk evolution? You’re a science fair flop,
Umbric’s lab rat—your whole crew’s a void-touched cop-out.
I’m the last blood knight, arcwine in my flask,
You’re a discount Nightborne with a tentacle mask.
Your whispers are spam mail, my spells are precision,
I’ll hawkstrider drift on your void apparition.
You defected for power? I was born in the flame,
Your shadow’s a phase—mine’s etched in my name.
Call me Thalassian trash? I’m the crown on the shelf,
You’re the echo of failure—go void yourself. Crowd loses it. Goblins start betting mana crystals.

[Void Elf – Final Round (voice layered with whispers, beat glitches into static)]
Keep flexin’ your legacy, it’s dust on the shelf,
Your Sunwell’s a nightlight—you’re scared of yourself.
I walk with the Old Gods, you bow to a Well,
Your future’s a footnote, mine’s a cosmic spell.
You’re a pretty boy relic, I’m the void’s new king,
When the stars all go out, guess whose name they’ll sing.
So take your blonde angst and your fel-green glare,
I’ll rift-walk to victory—catch me if you dare. Beat cuts. Silence. A felbat screeches overhead. Blood Elf (mic drop, smirking):
…Still prettier than you.

Crowd erupts. The tauren faints. Battle ends in a draw—until the remix drops in Dalaran’s club scene.
