Looks like crap imo. Really cartonny and not digging the new areas at all. Plus all the other changes just dont jump out at me and make me go omgicantwaittoplay!

Pokemon? Naw.
Talents? Had that done last patch and failed horrible.
New area to do the same quests ive been doing for 5+ years? Pass
New monk class? Not looking forward to everyone rolling this. I expect it to be worse then dk
New area? Cant wait to rush through it and fly past it when i reach max level

Basically....meh. I have very little faith in the current developers. I am expecting a mockery of what was once an awesome game.



I am pretty sure with it being void of innovation, laden with ripped off, rehashed ideas, and dumbed down to the point first graders will find in intellectually insulting, it will not only be a mockery of what was once the greatest MMO ever created it is going to be the laughing stock of the entire gaming industry.

As long as they add a panderen only cooking recipie for noodles then this expansion will be a win for me.

i am a sad panda.


woulda preferred emerald dream or something else than pandas. WoW has always had silly stuff in it but this time the whole theme for the expansion seems silly. i woulda really preferred them to delve deeper into the existing world rather than throwing some brand new stupid race and zones at us.

Wow needed to become more mature and adult oriantated, but its gone for the childish theme.It's the same old same old from a 2nd rate development team that lacks creative ideas.

Im not sure what some of you guys were watching but I never seen anything in the new expansion that iv'e not seen before.

An extra 5 levels? Can't be bothered
Monks? Prefer Necro/Ranger
Pokemon Time sink
PvP Nothing


Im praying Guild-Wars 2 will be a huge success,else i think im done with games.Wow has killed creative development for the last 5 years.

My theory is Blizzard has been working on other games and WoW is a shadow of the team it use to be.I can tell by the lack of quality and fun in their content.

Indifferent. Looking forward to TOR, GW2 and Diablo 3.

I am pretty excited about this expansion. I love the Pandaren race, and a Monk class is exactly what I have been waiting for!

For the Panda haters, here is something for you to think about...

I didn't start playing WoW because of those cheesy races, I started playing WoW despite those dumb races because, for several years now, it's been the highest quality and most enjoyable MMO around. However, between Blizzard's questionable design decisions and some promising MMOs on the horizon, it's looking like WoW is going to have some real competition (which IMO they haven't really had since WoW launched). Once people have some real alternatives, features that otherwise might not have mattered, like art direction, are going to be used by consumers to make a choice between WoW and its competitors.

Compared to SW:ToR and GW2, "Kung Fu Panda Island Adventure" just isn't that exciting.

I think they did have competition at launch: EQ2 was out, a more "hard-core" game that inherited a large number of EQ players. But WOW won. So, ppl like myself moved to WoW.

I voted I am excited: Monks will be a great class, pandas and Far East landscape look great considering the rest of the game. Gameplay is the big unknown though.

Oh please, don't even joke around by saying EQ2 was any kind of competition. You will be laughed off this forum so fast.
