Elisande's comment regarding the High Elves mingling their blood. No, she wasn't lying. She was attempting to mock them with the truth.
Also, Ion's comment that the few remaining exiles are being assimilated into other cultures. In game and out of game evidence.
And the fact that those three half elves are literally the only children the exiles have been confirmed to have (which means we are three confirmed half elf kids to zero high elf exile kids).
And the fact that a small group of exiles alone in the world and more open to relationships with humans than the rest of their race, humans who would greatly outnumber any potential mate from among the exiles, would have a greater chance of encountering a mate from the human population than another exile. Which is of course supported by the Ion and Elisande.
Remember many of the exiles left decades ago, not because of the whole draining arcane argument but because Quel'thalas left the Alliance and they decided to stay around Humans(as described in the Warcraft 3 manual) whether in neutral Dalaran, destroyed Lordaeron or bombed Theramore.
Are there a ton of half elves? Nope, still likely a very rare group despite all that. But all available evidence does point to the exiles preferring couplings with humans towards coupling with their own kind, which makes sense due to the circumstances.
So Blood elves' allies are misfists and monsters ?
And when the Scarlets crusade tells us Anduin is Sylvanas' lover, that's the truth ? Thanks Obelisk Kai for bringing this up
One single high elf family is doing that. The rest comes from your imagination.But all available evidence does point to the exiles preferring couplings with humans towards coupling with their own kind, which makes sense due to the circumstances.
"If you want to play alongside High and Void elves, the Alliance is waiting for you"
As stated in the post, she was mocking them with truth. However, she was twisting it.
She mocks the Horde as misfits and monsters. Those are labels lobbed at the Horde by the Alliance on a regular basis. The entire conception of the Horde after all is the supposedly monstrous, outcast races of Azeroth banding together for mutual support and survival. The Horde aren't misfits and monsters, but Elisande would happily mock the Blood Elves for their allegiance to the Horde.
Elisande mocks the Night Elves for 'disgracing a glorious past'. Which is true if you regard the old Night Elf empire as that glorious past. Given the Nightbore are a time capsule of that empire, culture and attitude, she clearly looks dimly at the choice the Night Elves made in turning their backs so completely on their highborne past. She mocks them for 'becoming as savage as trolls' and 'hiding in the woods', both of which are twisted representations of the truth.
So when she addresses the exiles, the important points are what she said, rather than the fact she acknowledged them at all. As both previous groups were mocked using the truth from Elisande's point of view, the exiles were also mocked with the truth from Elisande's point of view. If she were lying, her barbs would have no impact whatsoever. Instead, they are a declaration of contempt from her.
Again, Elisande's comment is proof that this is happening. And Ion's comment backs up Elisande's comment. It doesn't even take much speculation to figure out why it is happening. Not sure why you are so hostile to this logical outcome, after all, I don't believe half elves will be playable. The debate earlier was over whether they were objectionable or not, and they aren't, but that's an entirely different kettle of fish to whether they will happen, which they probably won't.
Neither debate has any impact on the fact the exiles are probably siring more half elves than pure blood exile babies, probably a lot more albeit still remaining pretty rare.
There is a need when the alternative is a duplicate Allied Race for a Faction that is opposite of what the Parent Race is. Blizzard isn't going to give the Alliance another Blood Elven themed Allied Race nor are they going to add High Elf customizations to Void Elves.
Half Elves however are a new and barely scratched the surface concept. They finally get a new and proper model and would continue the High Elf story on the Alliance that so many clamor for without crossing the lines Antis have issues with. A literal win/win.
It's not my imagination if it's obvious or are you suggesting in all the time that the exiles have been with the Alliance that not once have the two species got it on? Because if so, then that's defo in your imagination.
And it doesn't matter if they can reproduce or not. You'd be playing as the offspring of a Human and High Elf. Your children are irrelevant to your character.
You can give a different model to High Elves if it bothers you so much, like how Kul'Tirans were given a different human model or how Nozdormu has a different High Elf model. Creating something that no one asks for again to placate people who want High Elves is simply stupid.
Sorry but it doesn't make sense to invent a new model for High Elves when they haven't had a reason to need a new model.
Kul Tirans are not applicable because Humans are a Parent Race on the Alliance.
Nozdormu isn't applicable either because he's a Unique Dragon NPC. And Unique Dragon NPCs much like Alleria get unique NPC models.
Half Elves however make sense to give a new model to.

The Alliance gets the Horde's most popular race. The Horde should get the Alliance's most popular race in return. Alteraci Humans for the Horde!
I make Warcraft 3 Reforged HD custom models and I'm also an HD model reviewer.
You're not answering to my comment about the Scarlet crusade. Why ? Because it actually makes your argument "but if she says that then that must be true" a bit ridiculeous ?
Is Anduin Sylvanas' lover because the Scarlet Crusade states it ?
A bit like blue-eyed blood elves happening, isn't it ?Again, Elisande's comment is proof that this is happening.
I'm not hostile. This isn't just happening.Not sure why you are so hostile to this logical outcome, after all, I don't believe half elves will be playable.
"If you want to play alongside High and Void elves, the Alliance is waiting for you"
That meme is hilarious, I am going to use it whenever people shit on the Windrunners. Thanks a lot Ardenaso!
So still no source except "This is so obvious".
I'm not saying half-elves aren't a thing. They do exist. But I guess this is another way for Obelisk Kai and co to say otherwise that high elves are Horde/dead/neutral/irrelevant.
Actually it does. If you can't reproduce because your a hybrid then you're not a member of race. You're just a hybrid.And it doesn't matter if they can reproduce or not. You'd be playing as the offspring of a Human and High Elf. Your children are irrelevant to your character.
"If you want to play alongside High and Void elves, the Alliance is waiting for you"
If Blizzard decides to make them playable then you get your reason to invent a new model for High Elves. Just like Blizzard decided to invent new models for Kul'Tirans when they made a decision to make them playable.
It's fine to create a new model for Kult'Tirans as their parent race is on the Alliance and it wouldn't be fine to invent a new model for High Elves because their parent race is on the Horde ... because?
Never said that High Elves should be given the actual Nozdormu model. My point was that a High Elf can be represented in game not just by a Blood Elf model.
Half Elves make no sense to create in the first place.
Honestly, your arguments why High Elves can't be given a different model are stretched as hell. As if you just don't want High Elves to be playable just because.
Again there doesn't need to be a source when it's obvious. It has nothing to do with your insinuation about horde/dead/neutral. It's the logical outcome based on the fact that Half Elves exists and are shown to be Half High Elf and Half Human. So this makes it obvious that there are way more than what has been depicted. Blizzard just hasn't had an excuse to make a brand new model.
And again your children don't matter to the character your playing, since you are playing the offspring of a Human and a High Elf. Unless you think Blizzard is suddenly going to add a have children mechanic to players?

But why would they get a new model when there hasn't been any significant changes to their body to warrant such changes? Any Model updates they receive would have to be applied to Blood Elves and Void Elves since they all share the same body style.
Humans are the Parent Race for Kul Tirans and both are on the Alliance so that makes it alright. Blood Elves are the Parent Race for Void Elves and if High Elves were added them too however the Parent Race is on the Horde and not the Alliance. So again it's not applicable because different factions.
The point is that High Elves have no current reason/significant change to justify having a new model.
Half Elves make perfect sense to have a new model because they already exist and would continue the High Elf Story on the Alliance.
So I guess half-blood elves are coming to Horde side aswell ? After all, Shaw and Valeera maybe have a love interest together, and Blood elves are coming back in Dalaran.
And blood elves are an Alliance race since we see Alliance blood elves in Telogrus Rift ? So Blood elves are slowly coming back to the Alliance.
Totally logical and obvious.
See ?
