So, what do my fellow WoWgeeks think about it? Especially the new class (Monk) and the new race Pandaren.


Personally, I find this F*cking epic x3

I thought there was just a copyright filing for it, and that's all we knew? Can you point me to where it says we're getting panda monks?

If this is the case, I'm really fucking scared. They better know what they're doing.

This will be such a PvP focused expansion.. It is hurting me inside.
I love PvE.

Oh god, same. I hate PvP. I'm a casual raider and that's pretty much it. I really don't want PvP to be the focus. I'd much prefer lots more dungeons and raids. More story.

"In addition to purchasing pets or getting them as item drops, you can now also encounter and capture vanity pets in the wild. If you run into one of these rare pets, you can have your own pet challenge it; if you manage to defeat the wild pet, you will capture it and add it to your collection! Wild pets have stats that vary slightly, so you may end up catching an exceptionally powerful pet. Keep your eyes open!"

XD
They aren't even trying to hide the fact that it is like pokemon.

I was listening to the live feed for Blizzcon and I play a hunter and Ghostcrawler said something along the lines of "BM does good DPS." I kinda just wanted to explode.

I like it better that way, seeing as there is almost a Hunter NPC for every race at some point in lore.


Also, what are the PVE scenarios that they keep talking about? I cannot find any info on them!!! xP

Have you ever played Warhammer or Rift? It's kinda like that. If you haven't, basically something arises, lets say Goldshire is being attacked by kobalds, the people around will have to do something like fortify, then have to kill 25 kobalds, than a big kobald boss comes out.

I was e-mailing my dad about this and he replies: wait, wasn't that the April Fools joke this year? :P Good thing he's long-since cancelled his subscription to play Eve instead.

Pandas. Ah well, at least Blizzard are trying to make the game more light-hearted again.

It actually looks pretty bad-ass, why does everyone assume it's lighthearted? o.o These are Beer-Obsessed Bears FFS. They have a class where one of the main styles, IS FIGHTING DRUNK!

It's a panda. Most things in WoW make sense up to that point, then instantly just... Pandas.

It's the MONKS that get me. Not just Pandas. Panda MONKS. It was a facepalm moment for me. I was waiting for Jack Black's voice to come up on the sneak peak teaser-thing.

I don't like the concept of the Pandarean or whatever the fuck they are at all. They battle for the Horde and Alliance? And, not only that, but bring an entire new class in with them that every other race (essentially) can use? It reminds me far too much of Kung Fu Panda. It's a waste of time and a lot of people probably will regard it as a bad expansion.
