i mean why blood elves asked blue eyes? they could use IMAGINATION too? Because even “small” things make a difference. TAG above nameplate is huge difference
I dare you all to create a mecha gnome and call them Vulperas.
Or do you, dare I say it, lack the imagination.
Seriously though, people like me wanted high elves, not these void elves. And yes, I do lack the imagination. I don’t want to pretend these void diddling elves are high elves.
SC all either died in Northrend during pre patch scourge invasion, joined void elves or actually went back to Silvermoon. I mena you can sure they will be irrelevant with zero or very little appearance. So it will not be hard to pretend the factions is dead/dissolved.
I mean seriously, what would you do if Silver Covenant died? a great chunck of them died in Theramore anyway. Do you think Blizzard must keep them alive because you want to someday play as them?
Why? What is it that makes a difference to -you- Don’t say others, it’s you arguing here, what makes it a difference to -you-?
because they can look identical? You are literally asking for an extra Allied race that looks identical to something you can play. Why are you doing that?
The game does not recognize players as high elves, only blood and void, you can say what you want about the lore and the devs saying what ever.
But as long as the game does not recognize players as high elves, this topic will continue. Meaning a name tag, saying that you are one. Its simple yet beautiful,
Void ≠ High
You just said you don’t RP. This should not matter to you.
This literally does not matter. At all.
Let me just ask you these two questions, as we’re going around in circles here and I have stuff to be doing.
If Blizzard announced tomorrow, they would give you an Allied race with the exact same model as the Blood Elves just on Alliance side, with the one single change that it says “High Elf” as a Name tag. Would that make you happy?
Secondly, if they did that, and Horde got an Allied race that was something new and cool and interesting, like Ogres or Gnolls, are you honestly saying that you would be first on the barricades of Alliance indignation posts defending the Horde getting something new, just so you can have a clone copy of a Horde race?
The game doesn’t need to call you “High elf” to be a High elf.
I don’t see Night elf mages complaining about not being called Highborne. They use their imagination.
On RP server there is an addon that you use to change your racial name. And 90% of Role players use this addon.
But honestly I’m done trying to convince you guys. It’s like you listen with one ear and throw it out the other ear.
But before I leave, I want to invite you to the Quel’dorei discord. Hopefully you will see for yourself how High elf fans have accepted the Void elves and created some amazing transmogs to go with the new customization.
My Night Elf Mage is a Highborne and she looks perfect as one.
I don’t need the OOC tag to recognise my character being “Highborne” - other RP’ers can see the character in question is a Highborne.
Same as my Void Elf Hunter. She’s a Quel’dorei High Elf Ranger. I don’t needing OOC tag for me to play a High Elf.
No they didn’t. They got the model designed for their playable race. That is simply untrue. If you want the original Alliance High Elf model from Vanilla, you are welcome to it.
You are not telling the truth. Blood Elves did not get a copy paste of anything. They got a new model for the playable race, that you now want. So you did not answer my question.
Given that the model was created for playable Blood Elves, do you want Blood Elves but on Alliance side, with “High Elf” as a name tag, Yes or no?
Right, so it is just selfishness then?
You don’t actually care whether the majority of Alliance players are happy, or what Horde get as an alternative new Allied race, is that what you are saying? Yes or No.
