I'm seeing the ad campaign everywhere, otherwise I would've never noticed. I'm cringing. Pandas? Just straight up Pandas?
I haven't messed with WoW much but I can only imagine their demographic if they reached the conclusion that Pandas was the way to go. Imagine those board meetings.
"Gentleman, we need to strengthen our hold on the 9 - 13 year old, prepubescent , furry audience. I recommend Pandas."
All I can say is thank goodness we have EVE. Seriously. I don't ever want to see f*ckin Pandas in here. |

I really hate to break it to you.

I hate WoW based loosely on principles I only adhere to when backed in to a corner.. But being a Panda? I'm almost tempted. |

It's not about 9-13 year olds, it's about woW East. After all, the last expansion was aimed at Wow West, and they lost 3 million subs globally. |

well besides 9 new dungeons and 3 raids and new maps to quest on (same **** as other expansions) they did add three things.
they added farming (not grinding) actual farming... carrots and cabbage, why? for cooking recipes... they added scenarios (its a 3 player dungeon with no healer/tank) in order to combat guild wars 2 they added pet battles (literally pokemon)
besides that, eve is still way better. |

That does sound much better than just Pandas. But still - Pandas. |

besides that, eve is still way better. In other words they started officially copying lotro, rather than that OTHER fail game, EQ2. I personally prefer collecting my freshly grown carrots from bloody wolf corpses in gw2 EVE needs space agriculture... j/k ...but who knows what WiS may bring if ever implemented |

Gnomes are a classical fantasy race and often portayed as quirky and a bit silly. Pandas on the other hand are almost never seen in fantasy. When you do see them anywhere, they're portayed in as cute, chubby, cuddly and harmless, and they mostly appear in material intended for children. Even blizzard used them initially as a joke, so they have no one but themselves to blame, if their players now have trouble taking them seriously. |

Pandas being depicted as goofy? Nawwww "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

well apparently the panda came from the senior art director or something, some fat ass with a beard was nick named panda, so he drew pandas for fun and blizz made an april fools joke that pandaren would be the 5th race in warcraft 3... some people thought it was true and got mad when they said it was just a joke...so they added in a panda hero unit to warcraft 3... then they decided to make an expansion for wow... apparently pandas were supposed to be added in the first expansion but they added draenei instead.
i know too much of this crap, i'm disappointed wow keeps failing... the fantasy is cool but beyond that the game is just horrible trash.
edit: the kung fu panda **** is lame... blizz had pandaren as a joke race way before those movies came out. |

It is kind of funny if WOW need to start copying other games to stay alive.
oh well, I never played wow, but games come and go. Just too bad it ruined most of the fantasy genre for gaming while it was in its prime. |

I was tempted to reactivate my WoW account purely for the joy I'd find in KILLING PANDAS. But then I remembered I have very little time to log into a game and makes sure I spend 4 hours a day playing it so that I can replace purple gear with new green gear, then start the wonderful joy of re-running the same exact instance over and over and OVER AND OVER until I get all it's purps and phat lootz and wait for the next content update that will devalue everything I just achieved.
Nah, think I'll just resub to EVE so I can log in a couple times a week for an hour do something that I actually like in game and still progress. I created Ave Molech and I love ponies. |

Back in high school I played WoW.
After three hours I got bored.
I am an old time blizzard fan, who enjoyed countless hours of starcraft, warcraft(not WOW), and diablo.
Lately blizzard has been disappointing Starcraft II seemed a bit boring for my tastes and Diablo 3 had little replayability and screamed cash cow. |

blizzard went the way of EA. And the products follow suit, just look at the garbage that is D3.
And not surprising, the actual people who made D2 are not really working n D3. |

Comparing EVE online and World of Warcraft is like comparing Halo to a game like Mount&Blade.
The fundamentals are the same, but they're two wildly different games with wildly different people who play it, and no matter how you justify it, you're still an idiot for saying "lol **** is better than ****". Neither one of them is better than the other. |

so what kellinath blackfleet is trying to say is no one is entitled to their own opinions.
he's trying to say that nothing in this universe is any better than anything being compared to.
