    I've accepted that none of those things will probably change. I play because it gives me something to do between single player releases.

    Horde: Ogres, Forest Trolls, Taunka Tauren, Undead Elves, and any subrace or old past ally that fits with Horde theme.

    Asspull races like Lightforged Humans, Void Orcs, or whatever stupid theme from void and light doesn't help the lore of those factions. You can kept saying "You aren't getting playable High Elves" All you can it wouldn't change a fact that blizzard still screw up their lore and make it less interesting.

    This Case of this Ridiculous claim is done.
    You can say what you want, but if you can't read the writing on the wall and see where Blizzard are going with this, then you really must be blind.

    From this you would also like for High Elves to not be released as an Allied Race but based on your logic you would just accept it and move on as you wrote before about the things that doesn't go how you like.

    Hence why I said if you can't see where they are going with this then you must be blind. Its all starting here. Hence why you aren't getting Helfs. Argue all you want.

    Like I said, hilarious. You're the embodiment of entitlement issues.

    I mean I disagree with adding High Elves as playable, but Void Elves WERE an asspull. First they introduce Alleria back in, and now she's suddenly got void powers out of nowhere. Then somehow a group of Elves that were told to stop screwing with the void gets minor void powers, and becomes a playable race within the same questline.

    There was no foreshadowing, or narrative sleight-of-hand at all, they just suddenly popped up out of nowhere. I understand they may well be adding in a storyline of light vs dark, but that doesn't mean they didn't originate from an asspull.

    Isnt that how storylines start? At one point Murlocs were an asspull, heck every race was an asspull at some point. Gotta start somewhere.

    You're banking on that being the case. Personally I have no faith that Blizzard will develop the storyline of any of the allied races beyond those that we're going to see in the new expansion.


    Face it. They're a consolation. They're a "well high elves don't really make sense, so we're gonna give you these guys no one's ever heard of before because they're kind of the same thing." They're just like the lightforged. Slightly different races that were needed to round out the alliance side.

    It's not bloody rocket science.

    If High Elves are released it'd be incredibly disappointing and my faith in Blizzard would diminish to an all time low. But I'd probably still keep playing, probably whilst trying to give less of a damn about lore.
    If they added forest Trolls at the same time then they'd have butchered Blood Elf Lore beyond belief and any fucks I give about WoW lore would be gone.

    Ofcourse I can as everyone else see that we will be dabbling more with the old gods in the future. You do realize things can be implemented only for that expansion right and still be playable afterwards but the focus is not on that particular feature. TBC Draenei, Blood Elves, WotLK DK's, Cata Worgen, Goblins, Mop Pandaren Monk, WoD Garrison, Legion Artifacts. But NEITHER of these were focused on in the following expansions but are still live. I don't see this argument to not releasing High Elves as an Allied race regardeless if it isnt focused on in future expansions directly.

    That means Blizzard probably wouldn't lose any money on you which wouldn't hurt their buiseness while promoting more Boosts and Race aswell as Faction Changes. You got an economic issue with your original argument about High Elves because it wont matter what they do, youll still probably be paying them.

    That's not even remotely the same. Murlocs aren't an asspull because they 1) aren't a playable race and 2) featured into Warcraft 3 quite a bit anyway.

    That goes for pretty much every other playable race, save for void elves and the lightforged.

    No, the customer is not always right. Not by a long shot. And I say that as an alliance player who has asked/wishlisted for High Elves since before Wrath of the Lich King.

    We already have playable high elves though? I don't understand the discussion. My paladin has been a high elf since Burning Crusade.
    Can somebody explain to me the problem with high elves? I don't get it.

    Show me the canon proof of this. We killed the only guy who can make more void elves. At the end of the void elf intro quest. There are like TEN void elves, in total.
    OMG 13:37 - Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Cleave unto me, and I shall grant to thee the blessing of eternal salvation."

    And His disciples said unto Him, "Can we get Kings instead?"

    Except the VE storyline has already been developed some from what we've seen of BFA.

    There's no single guy that 'makes' void elves. Much like Alleria has been dipping into the void and learning to control it (as opposed to it controlling her), she is teaching other blood elves (and presumably, some of the high elves) to do the same.

    Oh now I seen everything. You would be disappointed because of playable forest trolls and playable high elves. Ok now I have seen everything about you. Oh might I add that Blizzard already butchered the horde lore by accepting Zandalari trolls into the faction even through they were problem to both blood elves, darkspear trolls and goblins.

    You ever thought of that? Godbid we have fox people and snake people becoming playable that already butchered parts of the lore beyond belief but adding forest trolls and high elves is a one step farer. What's next that makes you leave? Rommath getting murdered because of his ignorance and half of blood elf population being killed by Emo Elves.

    Well if he leaves because of these two stupid dumb reasons. One less entitled jerk in World of Warcraft would always be better off without him. Fact that he would quit because High elves and forest trolls becoming playable has got to be one of most stupid comebacks I have ever readed on this website. Just a reminder These two races were and still are highly request a lot more than Void Elves and Zandalari trolls because of Warcraft 2. Let me quote this one. "Without Warcraft 2 there will be no World of Warcraft. Without Forest trolls and High Elves there will be no true essence of Warcraft in general."

    Thats because there is a dissonance with people on what Blood Elves and High Elves are. They are by some percieved different from eachother and some percieve them as the same. Hope that cleared the discussion issue up.

    How is introducing race with Alleria as their leader a similar consolation price as lightforged? If you have been playing wow as long as you have been saying, getting Alleria back to the storyline should be huge for you. Are you trashing on void elfs just because you didn't get High elves? Because there is absolutely no reason to trash void elfs because of their lore. Its pretty fucking solid.

    According to what? A "this is how the void elves joined the alliance" isn't some continuation of the "grand dichotomy" that the guy I quoted was asserting as going to happen.

    I fully expect them to go the way of the worgen. That is, they get an introduction and then everything about them is promptly forgotten and they become another hum-drum alliance race. Maybe, like the worgen, they'll get a smidgen of continuation three expansions after they're first introduced, but that certainly isn't now.

    And of course maybe like the worgen the horde will pick up the tail end of their storyline so the void elf players themselves never actually sees it and then the whole thing is left on a cliffhanger. That would be less surprising to me than Blizzard giving the void elves a flushed out, playable storyline in the midst of all the other storylines they're likely far more interested in telling.
