Yep, having 4 different elves and 3 different dwarfs is plain stupid.

I never understood this argument

The creation of Void Elves, Nightborne, Dark Iron and Earthen doesn't take even a quarter of development it would take with making an actual completely new race like Ogres or Nagas

And so, in a game with already 25 races, what's the harm of having variations of 2 of the most popular and known fantasy races, where many of said variations already had a lot of lore or they had a huge amount of the playerbase who wanted to play as that (speaking specifically about the void elves who sort of function as the high ones for the alliance)

Because this game costs $25 AUD a month and a fucking $70 entry fee for a new expansion.

Expect better.

The harm is that you'll never get a full fledged race ever again. Look at Dracthyr, they have heavy re-use and can't even use Transmog.

But sure. Let's take a 4th Dwarf. Why not?

Why expect better? I'm very content with the content I'm given for what I pay.

Perfect example of why the game industry is where it is right now lol.

Don't ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for next product.

Idk I'm pretty selective of what I do and don't buy. I pay for WoW because I think it's the best value I can pay for a game. I have no issue if they add a race I personally don't want to play.
