Posts from Just for curiosity, here are some statistics about the Elves. Auto-translated

They're almost worse than humans over there.

Those nasty humans are cutting down forests, those nasty humans are killing animals, those nasty humans are developing technology, those nasty humans are polluting the environment!

And besides, the cutest elves are the small and winged ones, lol.

These are just sprites; you're quite the elf expert.

I voted for "I have a very good opinion of elves; they are one of the most interesting fantasy races." I like elves in their canonical form. In Tolkien's works (the progenitor of all modern elves), in the worlds of M&M, in the worlds of D&D, and so on, they are portrayed that way. In Warcraft, it's a complex mix; I like the portrayal of elves in the strategy games, especially the second one, and the third is also good. But the image of blood elves that has developed thanks to Blizzard's efforts, I don't like. And in general, I don't like the visual design in WoW, neither the blood elves nor the night elves. Although, according to the lore, both blood elves and night elves in WoW are still the same, but the image ruins everything. In Dragon Age, the elves are also good; yes, it's unusual to see them like that, but it still looks good. And in most other worlds, it's also great. What slightly bothers me is that 90% of them follow Tolkien's LotR trope, that the elven race is already in decline, and soon they will all have to leave somewhere, or they will all die soon. Can't elves be different? Yes, they can; take the Silmarillion, for example – it's still the same elves, just without the pensive, misty gaze towards the horizon and without sighs about past glory. They are somewhat like that in Warcraft, but only somewhat. And in Dark Sun, everyone will soon meet their end.

They’re making everything overpowered, yeah. Overpowered on top of overpowered.

These are sprites, you expert on elves.

I understand, they are sometimes mistakenly called elves.

They're making everything overpowered, everywhere. Overpowered on overpowered.

I'm not talking about computer games right now, where BALANCE is key.

I also think so.

ELF-LOVERS!!! This is my personal opinion, feel free to discuss it however you like.

However, arguing about whether elves are overpowered or not is pointless, because elves are different in every setting. This can only be discussed in the context of a specific universe.

Where are they supposed to be overpowered? People are constantly putting them down.

Tell me, what can they even do against an army? Or against curses? They can't do anything. All they can do is sit in their forest and… well, you know.

Who are the Elves?

Here are a few words about the Winter Elves. They evoke some sympathy in me because they use the magic of cold, which resonates with my soul. But the rest of them are just losers and try-hards.

Who are elves?

Roughly the same as ponies.

LOL, they stabbed him in the back with a dagger!

Elves always thwart my plans for world domination! In every game, they always stand in the way of evil. Why is there such injustice? At least there's one game where evil destroys all good and wins!

It would have been better to create a thread where people could say which faction they identify with; that would be more interesting.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I don't like the current state of elves either. High elves, forest elves, dark elves, snow elves, water elves, winged elves (there are such in D&D), desert elves, underground elves, night elves, blood elves, moon elves, golden elves, green elves, wild elves, cursed elves, fire elves, parallel-plane elves, Jewish-alien elves, gaseous elves, circus-dwarf elves, one-nostril elves. The list can go on forever. Just like with dragons, you take any adjective, add "elf," and a new race is ready! Profit!

I see myself as a пони.
