Official High Elf Discussion Megathread

[Alanar]

im just loving the salt in the official foruns, they are pearls in the dead sea, just a sneak peak about what is going on

Hahaha o my god these people are high.. get it..

papa bless manchildren

The only manchildren here are cancelling their accounts right now

[Sorrior]

They arent wrong. The Silver Covenant is a very small group. As are the elves in Hinterlands. They didnt say 'no groups of high elves at all' they said no LARGE groups

Then explain void elves? I doubt in one year a small elite force a squad coukd become more numerous then a group with a long standing army

[Magnagarde]

There is a time for hope and there is a time when you have to come to terms with things. The reasons he gave for ruling out High Elves are not temporary and they won't go away by the time of the next expansion.

This is over. People can still ask, but it's not going to change anything.

His message was not the point of my post. My point is that I'm puzzled that there's so many people on both sides that are acting completely childish, with one group taunting the other like little kids and the other group throwing a childish tantrum. It's almost like the misteries of the universe have unraveled for all of these people, when it's just a playable race debate lol

[Aeula]

Dude I love how he also referred to the fact that most pro Helf players just wanna play pretty white elves on alliance. Completely shut down

Yup, he addressed the real desire at the heart of all this.

[Obelisk Kai]

The most special, snowiest, flakiest style of victim who vehemently accused us of being close-minded and simpletons. Yet, the race you wanted has been in front of you since TBC.

Ahh, I'll relish in this victory for days to come.

*high five* @Obelisk Kai

Can we change the name of this thread to Official Blood Elf Discussion Megathread now, please? Thanks.

I'm not even certain this thread is even needed anymore.

What is left to discuss anymore?

The idea that High Elves can be meaningfully differentiated from Blood Elves has been refuted by the Game Director.

Sure. Explaining: Alliance REALLY wanted the belf model so they got it.

Well, I won't be playing WoW anymore that's for sure. Alliance getting fucked in the ass in the allied race war. Purple elves, exactly the same looking draenei, fat humans and dark skinned dwarves while horde gets everything they asked for + new blood elf faces, golden eyes, and upright orcs. The horde favoritism is too obvious and I've been playing alliance for 12 years. Fuck that mindset.

To everyone complaining about people being salty: so what? You don't complain, of course you don't, you're playing horde. You get everything you asked for, and more. So fuck you.

Cya

Fuck someone should have told me I was playing horde

[The Stormbringer]

It would be nice if they took the time to convert all existing High Elf NPCs to either Blood Elves or Void Elves so the debate can end once and for all. Vereesa? She and the Silver Covenant become Void Elves. Those who don't want to? They split with the Alliance and go suck on some fel beasties' mana for a bit to become Blood Elves.

If they're not planning on ever added playable High Elves, and Alliance has Void Elves and Horde has Blood Elves, why not just get rid of them at this point? Remove them from the damn game so we can move on.

[Aeula]

Blood Elves don't do that.

[Melius]

Fixed it for you snowflake.

Can't please everyone. I'm just amused how you can pretend this is Horde bias. Like I said, you Helf bunch are just sad.

have been playing since TBC both factions and i can arrive to a conclusion myself about horde bias without needing some randos 2 cents on the matter, thank you.

Bye, Elficia.

No doubt you'll be back for BFA. But +1 for the melodrama.

Asking people to behave rationally or politely online, especially on this forum with this subject, is asking for a miracle. Besides, it's fun to watch and gives you an idea of who to never take seriously again.

[Sorrior]

Not really. Pandarens are there yes, but they don't blow it apart. Blizz are clearly trying to make it so that it stays as an exception, meaning there won't be any more line blurring (or keep it as low as possible). Also, making a race that is new and available to both factions is completely different than giving a carbon copy of a race to the other faction. And yes, I think undead humans or alterac humans shouldn't be a thing either. If I wanna play a human, I have to play alliance and I'm completely ok with it.

Ok void elves same model fully armored can you tell them apart?

Well should've asked for something reasonable then. Non of what Horde wished for harms Alliance faction identity in any way. High elves do.

[Evilfish]

LMAO. Owned.

[Deleted]

The refusal to accept a lead dev stating high elves are blood elves is so similar to the trump is not my president thing the americans went on about for awhile it's actually pretty creepy.

[The Stormbringer]

Blood Elves don't do that.

They did that, that's how they got the green eyes.

[united]

Are you serious or just immature ?

idk about obelisk but im completely serious

Oh, the thread should be closed, no doubt. But I thought it amusing to request the change since, y'know, they're Blood Elves, after all.
