This kinda got under my skin:
Instead of ranting like I normally would, for this first one I'm simply gonna state some facts:
Well, they're really not. Pandas were official lore, and the later 2 were pulled out of blizzard's ass on a spur of the moment.
-WoW
-plot
-?????
WoW is notorious for having completely ruined the plot and lore of Warcraft forever. IT HAS NO PLOT! Plots go somewhere, there could b an underlying story in WoW but i assure you, it's not going to go anywhere cause it's not meant to.
Which direction would that even be? The original WoW sorta worked without raping lore too much, but by the Burning Crusade, you could just flip your desk and yell "Fuck it!" they killed it right there. But wait, then there was the Lich King expansion, where everyone got the Death Knight aids and again stabbing the lore in the heart.
If anything, Myst of Pandaria has the potential to be the expansion to do the LEAST damage to the Warcraft lore and actually fit in well. But every fucking idiot out there is having the opposite reaction they should be having to it.
All these idiots were fine with space goats and werevolves, when you bring in something from the actual lore, they rage.
After stretching and modifying the lore so much, anything can really fit there.
Instead of ranting like I normally would, for this first one I'm simply gonna state some facts:
- Although Pandaren started as an April fools based on Samwise's obsession with panda people, They quickly became part of the official lore.
- Pandaren were part of the lore as early as WC3: TFT (July 1, 2003).
- Pandaren are also part of the lore in "Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game" (July 28, 2003) as seen on the Manual of Monsters.
Pandas aren't worse than Space Demons or Werewolves
Well, they're really not. Pandas were official lore, and the later 2 were pulled out of blizzard's ass on a spur of the moment.
will not advance the plot.

Deathwing was a step on the right direction
