This expansion may be the best one since TBC from what's revealed so far.To the people that think pandas are a joke or kid race i suggest you at least try the game and the content before you QQ about pandas.
Best of luck with the expansion blizz :)

2. why is this expansion such a ripoff after kung fu panda? ... srsly:))
Tarren Mill
watch it, it well say "blizz will release content faster"
"pandarian= kung fu panda"
if your thinking as such... i personally think it is your own fault, since the panda "skin" is the only thing that the two objects have in common :)

No fun. And please, don't come with the arguement "it's pvp" 1vs10 isn't pvp, it's slaughter

With the current talents, you basically are forced to pick certain talents as they're mandatory to doing your role the best. this isnt the point of talents as they're supposed to help you customize your character. If you have to take a certain build, that isn't customisation. With the new talents, there isn't a set path through the tree that you need to take, so finally we'll be able to customize ourselves properly instead of having to follow a cookie cutter build.
Kul Tiras
The problem with the (mostly broken) Cata talents is that in each tree to spend 31 points you need all talents bar three or four. Given two or three talents are utterly useless anyway, as a rule, that leaves virtually zero choice.
The problem is that there aren't _enough_ talents to choose from.
This is why some of us are going whutt? when Blizz's master plan is to give you a restricted choice from only 15. This seems like going in utterly the wrong direction.
Further, with no interactions between talents that I can see the picks become 'one at a time' with no sort of master plan - that's even duller.
Doomhammer
No only will a big group of players will stop playing but the rate of people joining the game will decrease.
In my opinion Blizzard, you should focus on increasing the graphics which look ridiculous nowadays instead of throwing expansions at us.
Frankly, I would rather have a "WoW Graphic expansion instead if "WoW Mists of pandaria" ... nuff said

Will there be any new underwater zones in MoP? I personally loved Vashj' and would hope that there's at least some mini-zone in the starting area or something."
"Mumper: Nope, we are not making another Vashj'ir. Glad you liked it though! =)"
Thank god, I hated that place :D
