Pandaria!!! Cuteness hits Azeroth!

Blizzcon announces new WoW expansion, Pandaria and the new Class Talent System! ...and a few more things like Pet Battle System :D.

 

"The Pandaren have a long and storied history but have been hidden behind the mists since the time of the Sundering. The discovery of this lost continent provides an opportunity for both the Alliance and Horde to meet interesting new creatures… and most likely kill them."

While indeed Warcraft 3 brought us the mysterious drunken master and even WoW has had it's certain quest regarding our fat friend Chen Stormstout (also see HoN and DotA for some panda action), this, however has been most unexpected for me ... As I am currently taking a break from the WoW, I keep missing the old content... the magic that vanilla brought (and even TBC & WotlK), not thru what some might call simple... memories OR any feeling of nostalgia! Yes, that has tried most, if not ALL of the older members of the community...and no, I don't mean hardcore players, I've never been or considered myself as such, but most ppl ran from what "the world", was turning in to :(.

Now, to be more exact on what I'm trying to send out, just check the "Beware Deathwing" post. ALL those things are what WoW means for me personally. It's the magic and mystery that certain quests, zones, and items brought. It was the community along with the beauty of the game itself and VERY importantly the implementation of the LORE itself that made this game find it's way straight to my heart. I've always been a huge fan of warcraft 3 mods and so called rpg maps. It brought a sense of danger, magic, heroism and mystery to be explored. I have been expecting a drastic return to such roots...but well :D, this was again...unexpected. It would have been an amazing bonus but not a core feature. I do hope we get more "Jade Forest" and less "Farmland" cuz, as long as it feels more like Azshara and less like Durotar... it's just wrong. Kill the oil rigs in STV pls :p and bring back Tarren Mill ... Desolace is as desolate as it ever was and you have failed to bring it back to life, atleast that's how I feel, even more with not skilling lockpicking anymore.

Official trailer presented @ Blizzcon, enter the panda! :D

Like the other races of Azeroth, the pandaren have their own unique racial bonuses:

*Epicurean: Increase the stat benefits from food by 100%
*Gourmand: Cooking skill increased by 15
*Inner Peace: Your rested experience bonus lasts twice as long
*Bouncy: You take 50% less falling damage
*Quaking Palm: You touch a pressure point on an enemy target, putting it to sleep for 3 seconds. (:O btw. I still feel betrayed when WotF was nerfed and every time I see a human rogue wearing two pve trinkets in pvp ;) )

As a whole, the idea seems "temptalizing", and if this for example becomes a real WoW city then I might give it a chance :p.


I must admit, the whole thing contains amazing images, amazing footage and brings GREAT potential to the game...just, dear Blizz... KEEP THE WORLD OF WARCRAFT as world of WARCRAFT (not anything else) and keep  this in mind: it will never ever fail to look back to when the roots smelled like vanilla :p and to when having max lockpicking (as a symbolic example if you will), meant something. Nerf game = nerf community - nerf standard - nerf brains - nerf the world as a whole.

Will there be any rainbow pony mount implementation too?

Oi y'all peeps. Most of you guise playin World of Lolcraft MUST be familiar with the all time favorite and most loved GOLD SPAMMERS, account phishing, and all around scamming messages. Well, this thread requires such message posts.
