The whole point is he said the exact same things about Dwarves/Trolls customization as I said. He also said what the High Elf fanbase have been saying forever, when people talk about "wanting to play a High Elf" they are asking for a very specific group of elves.
That he has enough of a mind to understand this and not garble the ignorant "you just wanna play Blood Elves" is a win in my book since he represents a higher authority within the general WoW community and has influence over a larger portion of the playerbase.
Win imo to High Elf fans.
LMAO, so because I bring up an obvious point: Playing a Void Elf is very different from playing a Blood Elf compared to playing the Dwarves/Orcs, then all discussion doesn't matter?
What does that even have to do with showing you Ion's stated goal on what increased customizations are and how they're about looking different from others playing the exact same race? A rhetorical question, it's nothing.
I'll take this as another win too, as you appear to not be able to handle arguing against what the stated design goals of the increased customization are and latching onto points I've never stated.
I think it's hilarious that you think you've revealed some truth or something. What I said about Dwarves and Orcs holds true vs Void Elves/Blood Elves(and the other 2 elves). You don't gain a sense of what all elves are about just by playing 1 vs you get the sense of what all Dwarves/Orcs are about regardless of which one you choose.
Another win for me, thank you for conceding!

Exactly. Yet he often types in a way which he thinks he is.
But as T&E video points out. It's much more likely the general player mindset is the same. Most of the playerbase understands what High Elf fans want when they ask for High Elves, a specific group of elves that are part of the boys in blue faction.
He also points out what most people know too: putting blue eyes on Blood Elves is ofc the easiest way for Blizzard to say "there's your high elf option" but it actually does nothing for the fans who have been asking for playable High Elves as they're asking for that very specific group of elves.
It's good to see that sentiment because T&E's content is generally dedicated to the more larger/wider casual playerbase audience.
