If they turn High Elves into Void Elves they can fuck right off.

Happy two weeks until BlizzCon, everyone! I’ve covered several previous datamining clues towards expansion seven in these past few months, and unless something huge happens, this should be the last one. On MMO-Champion’s “Official Patch 8.0 Speculation thread,” a list from the game database was uncovered that could point towards four new (sub)races being added in. What are these potential subraces?

No. He didn't.

What physically distinguishes a High Elf from a Blood Elf.

[Eazy]

There's already a thread about them.

Blue eyes.

[Wyrt]

Not really a fan of Lightforged Draenei. They should just be extra customization options. Broken should be the draenei "subrace."

Blue eyes.

Shit man, that distinguishable trait will be exceptionally clear in game. Surprised they haven't added them already /s.

The eyes and the fel taint.

What distinguishable differences are there between Alliance and Horde Pandaren?

that and honor. belfs have the honor of an assasin and high elves try to stick to their old values and principels. oh yeah and they dont betray someone in every expansion.

So just the eyes, you think they're going to put a race that is exactly the same with two different eye colors in the game on two opposing factions? Tell me more.

There isn't, but they are the same race so that doesn't really matter. Why would they add High Elves again when they're are for all intents and purposes in the game already.

and you have pandarens that look exactly the same on A and H. dont see a problem with high elves

[Wries]

That's sort of an interesting development though. Lots of hunters looking at Allerias new found powers as a sign for a fourth spec, but it might turn out that it's a sign for an new elven sub-race instead.

High Elves are practically already in the game, you can play them now. You pick Blood Elf under the Horde Banner. Been there since TBC.

It's possible though that when they created all these non-playable races that just left over “CreateScreenFile” and “SelectScreenFile” columns when they copied the entries for Tauren, Night Elfs and Blood Elfs... as you can see that the ID's for the char screens correspond.

I mean srsly, I don't think "Void Elfs" and "Lightforged Draenei" are going to be new playable races. Those are probably just non-playable races being utilizied in the upcoming Anthorus raid and that's really it. It would be srsly boring and lazy from Blizzards side though if those are actually new races.

All in all, those "leaked" things point ONLY towards trash mob NPCs in Anthorus, that's it.

Maybe people should stop assuming they're subraces. They could just be new races. So if they want to add Broken as a playable race later they aren't limited to giving each race a single subrace or some bullshit.

that's a one for one basis. Adding in high elves before would have given the Alliance a horde race model for nothing. Nightborne change that.

They're going to add draenei, but with different customization options as a new race? Seems unlikely.

Like... Pandaren? Lol
There is nothing to differentiate them from each other, so by your logic, High Elves would be better suited to be available to both factions because a different eye color is at least one difference.

There isn't, but they are the same race so that doesn't really matter.

Are you telling me that if a race is exactly the same on Alliance and Horde then it is ok to put them on both factions, but if one has blue eyes and one has green eyes then it doesn't work anymore? What logic is that?

Why would they add High Elves again when they're are for all intents and purposes in the game already.

Cause they're no available for Alliance. People want them on the Alliance side.

I mean the whole point of subraces is that there are minor differences in appearance. Like Tauren with moose antlers. Are you telling me they could add Tauren with moose antlers, but not Blood Elves with blue eyes?

[Radaney]

So factions shouldn't exist then?

You break the ignorance scale. We know Blood Elves are in the game. Thanks for keeping us up to date. People want High Elves on the Alliance side.

Yeah factions would cease to exist if we get one more "neutral" race.
