Why aren't the High Elves and Amanis the races featured in Midnight?

Every day, more and more haters of the High Elves come here.
They come with their silly, banal arguments and then just leave with nothing, having proven absolutely nothing. It’s so cute to watch :grin:

That’s like saying a Buddhist and a crack addict are two different species. You got any more dumb ideas, cause this is becoming kind of entertaining. Yeah, keep going. What about their diet?

And yet we’ve playable Eredar under the Draenei race as a customization.

If anything that is the route they should go with High Elves for Blood Elves… and maybe their Void outcasts, but it’d make no sense for the Void counterpart tbh.

Year ago i was ten kilos heavier than today. It’s still me, you know … :man_shrugging:

Blood Elves WERE (plural of “was”)
and
ARE (irregular form of “to be”)
and
WILL BE High Elves
because you can’t simply to re-materialize into something else.
Ok, in WoW you can, but that is not the case here.

People who threaten to quit often don’t.

It’s just attention seeking.

I really want playable Amani.

I don’t understand why they dind’t open Midnight with the Amani as Horde AR and something else for the Alliance.
It was right there. They are a og horde race, even the first Trolls we ever met in the franchise. They have their own zone and we work this time with the Amani.

I really hope we get playable Amani.

Playable Amani has been noted as being extra customization features for Darkspear Trolls.

Put simply, it isn’t looking good.

High elves are already playable on both sides. Blizzard doesn’t believe they need to add an identical race. Now amani might get on in the end we just don’t know that yet. Everything is possible.

I know, sadly I feel the same.

I would like to know what sort of customization we will get, but it’s a let down.

A really confusing let down, since they made new models a new zone for the Amani and we help them. It’s so strange.

Yes we need Alliance High Elves to finally be made a playable allied race and Amani trolls for the horde!

Who is this we? And why do we “need”? We have belfs and vels. We really don’t “need” a 3rd.

But what about the high elves that are high elves. The ones that never adapted the name sin dorei? Story was retconed until tbc all sin dorei left to outland with kael thas. Then we found out it was not the case. Retcon the story again idk. Kael thas turned evil psychopath maybe we should not follow his ideology about renaming or believing that everyone wants to be sin dorei. Personaly i find void elves the coolest of them but at this point of copy pasting rigs i would not mind another high elf rig who cant be dh but can be paladin with own racials and no green fel eyes.

No no, we do need, just not from the timeline of what is happening now, but we will go to paralel dimension 10000years in the future to meet the super amazing elves lead by resurrected Sylnanas who is now Light flavored Undead imbued VoidFel DeathDemonHunter and bring those Elves back to our timeline to help us as allied race and not go to actually HighElves we already have in our timeline

I’m starting to get tired of people repeating that tired line of “Blood elves are high elves”, especially when I keep seeing High Elf NPCs, architecture, and equipment with each new expansion.

And besides, if Blood Elves are High Elves, using that same logic, Canadians are American, Austrians are German, and Ion Hazzikostas is Turkish!

In the aftermath of Arthas’s genocide, Prince Kael’thas Sunstrider declared that the survivors would no longer call themselves Quel’dorei. Instead, they would be known as Sin’dorei, “Children of the Blood,” in honor of their fallen brethren.

However, not all accepted this change. The high elves who remained loyal to the Alliance, rather than to Kael’thas or the Kingdom of Quel’thalas, rejected his initiative. Since the name change was his decree, they refused to follow his orders and continued calling themselves Quel’dorei.

Thus, the majority of survivors embraced the new identity of Sin’dorei, while a smaller minority held to the old name of Quel’dorei.

People here act as if the High elves and the Blood elves are different species, or race.

The split was not biological, like it is between the Kaldorei and the Shal’dorei for istance.

It was political, cultural, and ideological.

One group said: “We are Sin’dorei, children of the blood, bound to Quel’Thalas.”
The other said: “We are still Quel’dorei, high elves, and our loyalty lies with the Alliance.”

Edit:

Also to add, many here were mentioning about the exile of the “High” elves from the Silvermoon.

After the destruction of the Sunwell, Kael’thas left Quel’Thalas in Lor’themar’s hands while he searched Outland for a new source of magic. With the kingdom in ruins and the people suffering, Lor’themar saw that the so-called “High” elves placed their loyalty to the humans above their own kin. For that, he exiled them.

And as the recent comic shows with Arator living in Silvermoon, it’s clear, they were exiled not for bloodline, but for selfishness and misplaced loyalty.

Where are your high elves bozos?

Let’s assume I am East Asian and then moved to Europe. Do I suddenly stop being East Asian biologically? No, I’ve just adopted a new legal or cultural identity.

Same with the elves: the Sin’dorei didn’t stop being Quel’dorei by blood; they simply embraced a new national identity.
