Yawn, what a boring comment.

I am actually excited for this expansion. Cataclysm was 'ok', at least this expansion looks slightly comical while maintaining what WoW is all about.... a great MMO experience that 'just works' imo.

Bring on the Panda's and Monks!

how is it a boring comment lol - its fact.

and for the record ive had a wow sub for 5 years if anyone feels like calling me a typical wowhater. If you cant tell the game is going downhill you seriously are delusional.

oh look its a pandaeran!

because it has been in the game for all these years - it means its a great idea to release it entirely as an expansion? No. You dont even think its remotely silly? Guess im the only one....

At least we know Blizzard isn't trying the Chinese market anymore. In China, any representation of pandas in violent scenes are completely banned.

Star Wars MMO is right up your alley. It's for fans who moan about anything and everything and whine when Lucas decides to try something different. WoW was never remotely not-silly.

So because I have mentioned I dislike the idea of this new expansion I typically moan about anything and everything. Are we not allowed opinions on these boards anymore?

Sorry but that is utter bull.

The only reason the Chinese have ever had a problem with Pandas in WoW is when Blizzard portrayed them in Japanese armour.

There is actually a Chinese DEVELOPED mmo called Eligium in which pandas are a playable race.

Yep, the only new thing they've introduced in this expansion is playable Pandas, were you dropped on your head?

Apok · 22 Oct 2011 at 00:46

No they introduced pokemon battle arena to wow aswell >.> .

Although if anything i'm looking forward to the expansion simply because it looks like the lore etc will be going in a different direction.

It's been holy **** some dude is about to **** up the world lets stop him/her now for like 6 years, something different might be nice.

I notice that no one has made the ***Official World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria*** thread, I don't think there's much more to say than "Pandas? seriously?...ugh".

WoW was the MMO of the noughties, no, the (PC) game of the noughties, and I shall always remember it fondly.

R.I.P.

Yeah thats nice. I'll look back on your comment in a year years from now when WoW is still going and laugh.

Have to say, besides the pandas which I still think is silly, the expansion in general looks very interesting, lots of nice new features.

The Paladin talent tree is massively underwhelming, our T5 is made up of 3 talents which given the choice from a tanking PoV I would take none of, even thinking from a DPS or Healing PoV their almost useless.

Unless they have some massive ability changes coming up, I don't see how they can justify the tree.

Tanking? Feels more like a PvP set of abilities to be honest, and since your abilities are learned automatically it just gives you options for when you'd want to do some pvp?

not just Pandas, Pandas from Pandaria

WoW: The game where the most played content is insulting whatever Blizzard decide to do, even though Pandarens were statistically the most wanted playable race.

Edrof · 22 Oct 2011 at 08:23

So...when's the expansion out?

Logsi · 22 Oct 2011 at 08:43

So. Why not Emerald Dream?

This.

Has there been any information on what the main PvE aspect will be in this new expansion? e.g. Burning Crusade: Illidan, WoTLK: Arthas etc
