I'm quite sure that will be the end of my subscription, and i've had one since just about day one. Though the expansion might appeal to some, as far as i'm concerned they're selling out and adding a huge layer of cheezwiz on top of what was once a very cool game. How long before people will be calling for a wow classic server?

I quit a while back, not because of pandas, but because the social aspect of the game had declined. The LFG and LFR had turned the world into a lobby system.

Regarding Pandas - I don't understand all the hate. You have werewolves, aliens with penises on their chins, elves, fish people and goblins. Why would Pandas stop anyone from playing WoW? If that's your only reason to keep you from playing, it isn't a logical reason.

Feel sorry for all the WoWers that have invested so much time in this game and then ultimately what they come out with is Kung Fu Panda edition?? WTH. I can't see that some people could be skeptic towards that. What really really nags me though, is how did they come up with that idea in the first place? Just can't understand it.

I'll play. If I can put up with walking hamburgers I can put up with sugarcane eaters.

I can honestly say I don't know if I'm going to return to WoW for Pandaria, but nor am I upset about it.  What's not to like about Pandas, and whats with all the negative references to Kung Fu Panda ~ those movies and the cartoon are hilarious!

i personally think pandas are idiotic as a player race and think blizz only put them in to please the chinese gold miners, but also i remember the fun over belfs. the pure hate over them was amazing.

here's a quick challenge: has blizz released a race in an expansion that anyone liked?

I will buy the xpac and play with old friends, level my main to the new cap and maybe level a panda to see what they are like. Anyone who claims to be quitting due to the Panda race has either already quit or never played the game or perhaps they are afraid their buds will make fun of them. Im way past the need to prove how macho I am so why not?

I quit WoW a good time ago. When I look back and see what kind of drama is going on with that game I kinda feel sorry for what's left of it.

I think pandas will very bad expansion.It will ruin wow as the a last shot.

That makes me a sad panda.

However I do agree with the WoW fans in Warcraft 3 the panda was Wardancer,Geomancer and Pikeman. So regardless of what anyone will tell you the Kung-Fu Panda is a 50% ripoff from the Disney Movie.

I really liked the female Draenei at first, but then after you get the long cloak and the way it swoops out and down the tail has become an annoyance...dunno why but it just irks me!    And then I really loved playing as a female Goblin...have yet to play the Worgen...

I liked the goblin race and blood elves.

Playing it now. been many moon's since I last played but so far I get a group evry few minutes. as far as pandas...oh well like some have said pandas are not the issue. making everything so easy to get now is just silly. but also it's an old game. after MoP you got the last xpac and it's retirement for WoW.

Blizzard banking on project Titan, so don't expect much after the last xpac but small content patches and the like. if you start yet another alt you have so much to do and see. thats 7 years of content if you like running groups. it's ok kids WoW is what it is, leave the old girl alone. she's not on life support but her former children are some real assholes.

When Pandas are released in WoW this forum will stil be full of frustrated MMORPG players that do not want to play it, but Blizzard will be swimming yet again in money.

So I am sure they will care about you lot, by crying themselves to sleep every night.

Yeah, kind of surprising that Blizzard didn't expect the backlash of these panda monks. But maybe they thought it would be worth the gain they would get in the asian markets.

Not some, it will appeal to a lot of people. This website was never known for happy and satisfied gamers.

I recall this being one of the races many people expected before any information came out about what races BC would have.  I had never heard of them at the time, but apparently they have been in the WC lore already.  I don't really see the big deal here.  If they were already in the lore, then it's not like they put it out just cuz of Kung Fu Panda or something.

Not paying much attention, obviously. Pople have asked for classic WoW servers since day one after TBC, and they still do.
