Nothing but moving goalposts. You said we didn't have blood elves "making the choice", and when presented with blood elves "making the choice", then you move the goal posts, adding caveats after the fact.
Says the guy despite the fact two races in the game literally increase their population by "replicating" a process.Hairstyles? Beards? That's not differentiation at all, that could easily be copied. Real differentiation is something not replicable or reversible. Void Elf skin tones and their tentacles and the real differentiation between the two groups, not the goatees.
Lore. I can play a void elf or a blood elf and pretend my character is a high elf, but that doesn't mean my character is a high elf.If you accept that Void Elves can convert other Elves, and I believe you do, then you can. So what is stopping you?
And high elves are the original definition of what high elves are, which is what people want.A Blood Elf is the redefinition of what a High Elf is.
And both times you failed. Hard. "Moving goalposts" does not "refute" anything.This is an easily refuted point, I have done so twice in this thread already.
What they say is irrelevant, because they're irrelevant to your first claim, that we don't have blood elves "making the choice". We do. And you, in an attempt to save face, engage in blatant shift of the goalposts.These individuals TELL you why they are studying the void.
If it was, they would've stopped asking a long time ago. Yet... every time they hear 'no', they seem to want it even harder. It's almost as if every 'no' is not a "crushing event", but almost an incentive to keep asking.Them saying no isn't a reason to stop asking, but each no (or even no comment on the topic at a major event) is always a crushing event for pro High Elfers.
And that's the crux of the issue, and why so many high elf supporters don't like void elves, and why they're not a compromise.Void Elves are not Alliance High Elves.
Or perhaps it's a culmination of all the power she absorbed into herself. We can tell she has already been hearing whispers, long before we even met her again, when Locus Walker said: "Remember: as long as your mind is your own, you control this power."Talk to her on the Vindicaar and ask her about what happened, she will happily fill you in.
The fact that she never demonstrated the ability prior to that moment, or that it was felt the moment deserved a cinematic, and that the event leading up to the cinematic was her absorbing a powerful void being, demonstrates that this was indeed the first time it occurred.
Yeah, and prove that the retort was nothing but bollocks. Because they gave nightborne and void elves. If they really cared about "keeping faction lines unblurred", void elves would've gone to the Horde, and the nightborne to the Alliance.At this point I am sure you are familiar with the usual retort that Pandaren neutrality was a mistake that Blizzard regretted. And the differences between Void Elves/Nightborne and Blood Elves/Night Elves could be seen as taking the feedback from Pandaren to heart, in that they provided variants of each race to the other faction rather than complete duplicates.
