    lik i said, the suggestions always go to the He/be actual mode but improved

    Oh and again less fat more power lifter
    and that don't make sense, elves are not the kind of people who regularly go to the gym to be Buffy

    Lore reasons easily. They would have been relying less on the sunwell and more physically active. A mix of the two could do that even for a human in 20 years an elf gods only know

    And i never said make them kul tiran big. Whiich ntw gyms are not needed for not if you carry heavy cargo onto ships all the time

    If High Elves are some kind of magical 'oh shit' button they only intend to press when earnings look dire they would have hammered it years ago.

    I keep continually seeing this reference to High Elves being a great source of cash for Blizzard.

    The truth is it's probably nowhere near as high as you imagine it to be nor worth so much that they would compromise fundamental gameplay principles to implement it.

    are you trying to mock up here? you never heard about theory of evolution? differentiation of species? how one ancestor specie is different from another due to years of differentiation?

    implying other blood elves could not rely less on the sunwell and be more physically active? cause you know they already do?

    Wretched in TBC had different model because over feeding their magic addiction was enough to physically change them.

    Highvale elves who stopped practice magic and left Silvermoon before losing Sunwell could have physical change too.

    I'm gonna still play this game even if developers say right away that there's no HE ever, and i'm gonna still be a great and proud BE if HE got added, not everyone is biased like you.

    They already hammered their biggest oh shit buttons in legion.

    Sargeras? Yep

    Demon hunters? Yeppers

    Various iconic weapons asked for for ages(mostly ashbringer) ohhh fuck yes

    Bfa has a few

    Mag har orcs, forest trolls and mok nathal being VERY bug ones.. Dark Irons i guess some wanted too(seen far nore requests for the latter)

    They ARE spamming oh shit buttons. Hell pandaren they probably considered one till everyone and their uninformed mommy started crying "KUNG FU PANDAAAA" which was bs from the start.

    HE are probably THE most requested alliance race going back to before launch. I would call that a VERY big oh shit button. Not demon hunter big but still prettty fucking big.

    More by choice not mecessity and yeah they do but they look the same due to model limitations. Annd they still have more leisure then i expect alot of HE have had

    Hell even with HE i'll still roll an occasional NE. I like their starting zone and the whole struggle between addiction and loving thing they talk about.

    Oh and now that i remember don't they still have fel crystals all over for BE to feed on? Not been updated since bc and all that(gods do BE and Draenei need a start zone makeover. Whole workd does provided the legion or MOP guys do it)

    And yet despite this magical money pot at their fingertips they resist pressing it.

    So let's follow the logic. If they could get a ton of money out of doing this as you claim, why haven't they pressed it?

    Why have they gone out of their way to rule out even using the button?

    I mean, it's not spite although a few Alliance players probably think that.

    So IF they haven't pressed it, and IF you are right that there is a ton of money to be had by pressing it, then the logical conclusion is that the reason they haven't pressed it is that the negative downsides of pressing it far outweigh the amount of money you claim they stand to get.

    Such as undermining the faction divide that is THE singular most important fundamental dynamic in the game.

    In summary, the more money you think they could get from adding playable High Elves, the more important maintaining the faction wall must be to them or they'd have already done it.

    This guy (mountain) has retconned his ancestry. First, he was ordinary human from stormwind, but hundreds of years of evolution changed him into kul tiran. That is why burly Kul Tirans make sense and slightly skinnier or meatier high elves dont make any. Because 20 years of struggling to sate hunger is not enough to look different. It takes hundreds of years, as you can see on this kul tiran.

    I am genuinely curious given the obsession you have with faction identity..do you EVER play alliance?

    "stop practicing magic" don't mean they would stop consuming magic, if an elf stop using magic sure they would change but would be like a Withered version

    way more skinny, way more pale, and white eyes, but the HE fans never would like this :^) they would start asking for the silver covenant ones


    Yea like I thought. You can't.
    yeah now i know you are just trying to mock up, evolution explain itself

    its like when you ask for people explain why the homo sapiens is not like the neanderthal or a specie behind, and you just say "you cant explain" just because you can't understand

    Allied races system is something already new, if they did not considered High Elves now, there's nothing saying that it is not going to happen ever.

    Not necessarily. The withered were unable to overcone their addiction these would have been elves who did overcome it and mana/magic might be more like a treat or candy rather then an always needed thing

    Pre ion they were considering it. Welll pre current team. It is not out of thevquestion just unlikely.

    i said "a version of it" not literally one, you can't just overcome the addict of "eating" or "drinking water", elves need to consume magic to survive, they can control for a while, but after that the symptoms would show up, and like i said, more skinny, more pale, and white eyes ( cause no magic) would make totally sense for elves who stop consuming magic, this maybe could turn then into a different specie

    but people don't want then, they want the HE version improved

    cause if you remove the source of power of an elf, he became more buffy, and psychically stronger, without logic at all
