Blizzard just released a new photo album on their Facebook page entitled 'Glimpses'. It currently houses just a single photo. Curious...


What do you think it means?

It means the B-team is still doing nothing more than recycling old, tired, content, as always.

Umm, Pandaren were allies with Night Elfs, but severed ties because they started becoming obsessed with magic. Horde won't be getting pandas if they are a race, everything points to them being an Alliance race.

Nobody is getting pandas. That'd just make it even harder to get the expansion approved by the Chinese government. Alliance gets Ethereals, Horde gets... who knows what. The main enemy of the ethereals were the blood elves and, in some cases, goblins. If memory serves anyway. I didn't give a rats ass about story in BC, or really in the rest of WoW for that matter, though LK had some nice twists where I paid attention.

Still trying to figure out why Alliance would get ethereals though. I mean they're just as conniving and greedy as goblins, and their demeanor isn't much better. I'm thinking they'll just be another faction with bases in both Alliance and Horde territories. Adding new races AND a new class doesn't go with Blizzard's past history, and do we really need new races already? A new class though... considering Pandaren are monks it's the most obvious choice for players to be monks as well.

Obviously you don't have a clue. China does not have any issues with violence in regards to fictional pandas, their one issue with Blizzard's Pandas was that they were first depicted in Samurai armor - which ain't China

That's right, I recall studying warrior pandas in my world history class, and they definitely had Chinese armor. When is Blizzard going to learn the importance of capturing real life history in their game!~!!?
