Because Pandas are pandas, not some fantasy creature. It was all well and good when it was just a little off-shoot in Warcraft 3, and hell, they could even have an homage in WoW, whatever, it's all good. But to put it so front and center, makes the whole thing silly to me. At least Draenei were something entirely different.

I seem to be having the complete opposite reaction than you - I can't understand how people can take it seriously.

I will give the expansion this, though, mechanics-wise it looks to be a big improvement.

In what way is this sillier, or more out of character for WoW, than space goats?

I like wow in general. I played the damn thi, ng for 2500+ hours, but while they have had many silly elements mixed in with their more "high fantasy", this puts the silly front and c, enter.
I think this is way sillier than anything they've done before, partly because it's so "centered" in view. Have small references and general sillyness in the outskirts of the game is just fine, but dammit, wow was a perfectly good game, but now it's gone silly!

You people are all nuts. Maybe it's my general interest in Asian culture speaking, but this looks pretty awesome to me. I honestly do not get why everyone is reacting like this is the worst thing since Jar Jar Binks. Someone seriously needs to explain that to me. What looks so bad about this?

Since you asked...
Since launch, WoW has been a remarkably shallow game. It's success is attributable to oooh, shiny!, furry culture and, most importantly, people's tendencies to gambling addiction. The WoW team is kinda infamous for not coming up with any new or interesting ideas.
So when they suddenly whip out a new expansion that's based on an April fools prank by one of their artists from 6 or so years ago, yeah, it seems especially cheap. No matter... the furries will gobble this up and the money will continue to roll in.


Well sure, I mean, I can understand why some people dislike WoW in general. And of course those people aren't going to like this, because ultimately it's more of the same.

What I'm asking is why people who are actually fans of WoW are reacting so vehemently to this.

Tbh if I ever saw/met this guy in Van, I would punch him as hard as I could in the face for every spoken line he had in Indy IV. I don't apologize if that makes me seem like a bad person. He voluntarily helped ruin and rape Indiana Jones.
Keep this man (Tingles) away from Jar Jar Binks, Scrappy Doo, The Great Gazoo, Wesly Crusher, and every orphaned kid added to a sit-com family in it's final year.

Oh great, now I got Peter Gabriel's Your Eyes binking around in my head...


You had me at fetal bathroom dad...

"It's a trap" is from Return of the Jedi not Star Wars.

Jar Jar Binks isn't in Star Wars - but neither is Yoda. Just so you know.

There's nothing wrong with Ewoks, but Jar Jar Binks must die.

bravo! see how super duper awesome star wars would have been without all those disney distractions, like ewoks or jar jar binks?

The anti-Jar Jar Binks of the prequels. An elegant villain for the more fanboyish nerd.

Now do Jar Jar Binks.
