In a case of déjà vu, Frogster has revealed the new Eligium website that includes a Panda race whose members are masters of martial arts. In addition to the Pandas, the team also has revealed new information about the Elves, Arcane Forest Dwellers and have made a new beta sign up form for interested players. Find out more about Eligium - The Chosen One. Associate Editor: MMORPG.com |

I guess we can look for a playable Panda race in every MMO from here on out. Thanks Blizzard. |

I'd be willing to bet that they had started working on the Panda race in Eligium before last week. I still think the game has some interesting features, and am not all twisted up inside over pandas in a fantasy game. Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned. |

Perfect World also has a panda race that can be played but known as untamed. |

Originally posted by blackthornn Perfect World had playable pandas for a long time. so i guess WoW is now a perfect world clone. "Never met a pack of humans that were any different.

In fairness to Eligium devs, this is obviously a fully fleshed out race and has been in development for a LONG time. Blizzard has kept Pandaria under tight wraps, with no information released until last week. Judging by the video, Eligium devs have been working on this for a long time. It's no WoW clone or anything other than a coincidence that this happened the same week as Pandaria was revealed. I'm sure they're not happy about it either. There's a lot more to Eligium than just this one class/race. Check out the site. :) Associate Editor: MMORPG.com |

From the dates on the videos listed above it clearly proves that the only one who could be accused of copying something is blizzard. Yes, i know pandas are in warcraft lore, i've read all the books. Not saying Blizzard have copied, but there's definately a case for it. |

If you see no good or you see no bad in a game, chances are you are bias. |

"It must be a copy of wow! They obviously created and developed this class within less then a weeks time for release, it makes so much sense to me, the average yelling joe who has not the slightest clue how games are designed and created!" Seriously... if a company could copy a component of another game in a weeks time and have it in such a state, we would have seen games toppling wow in no time and game production times would probably only be months before release. |

Wow... just wow... My faith in MMO's is slowly slipping away.. Are they all going to rip off from freakin' Dreamworks now? Bioware, please bring us salvation and non-Kung Fu Panda action! |

Originally posted by aovannor I doubt there's a case for it especially since Metzen said the Padaran race was orginally gonna be released during the burning crusade so they had them already in the works just pushed it back.

Originally posted by Taiyoh hmm i'll have to look it up but i'm thinking Blizzards Pandarans were around long before what Dreamworks made. "The great thing about human language is that it prevents us from sticking to the matter at hand." |
