    Which is a problem of the stereotype and people's impressions. To relate it back to the title of the thread, stereotypes are not a good rationalization to say Pandas and Monks do not fit into Warcraft/WoW. Even the OP says, 'Warcraft is not Asian at all', when that is a complete myth considering it is and always has been influenced by Asian cultures since Warcraft 3. Blademasters are Samurai, Night Elves have Asian styled buildings, and we had the Pandaren Brewmaster featured in both multiplayer and as an easter egg playable character in Rexxar's campaign.

    Again, it's like saying Nerubians don't fit into Warcraft because 'people don't like Spiders'. It doesn't mean the people are wrong, but it doesn't rationalize Nerubians either. All you're doing here is try to reinforce the fact that 'people don't like Spiders', when it's really a non-issue when we're talking about an actual relevance to Warcraft. Opinions and first impressions don't define what Warcraft is or should be. Just because something is seemingly unpopular does not mean it should be removed. Vashj'r will continue to exist as a zone despite everyone hating underwater zones; it's a part of the universe no matter how much people hate it.

    Have you ever noticed that people say Warcraft is just not Asain but never sen to bulk at the Japanese inspired architecture of Night Elf shrines?

    Warcraft has always been kind of cartoonish to me. To each their own I guess.
