none of whom have had expansions centered around them, so we don't have to see them everywhere.
And like I said, I don't like Tuskarr either.

Your just hating...
They don't stick out in that picture at all.
Only partially because they are standing next to the Tuskarr. Put next to anyone else? They would be a sore thumb.
And once again. None of those (except draenei, sort of) had an expansion based around them.

No, but all of them had parts of expansions so......

Relatively small compared to the Pandarens though.
Before I could deal with Nelfs, I couldn't level an alliance character in zones with Nelf NPCs. I have never finished the Tuskarr chain, because I don't like them.
So, with every zone having a huge focus on a race I hate...

Well, good thing no one is going to make you upgrade to the new expansion then eh?

You never know with Blizzard. Didn't they force everyone to upgrade to BC for free when Cata came out?

if you think about it (And I mean REALLY think about it, not just a slight ponder) MoP is not centered around pandarens.
When we traveled to outland........ based on what we knew of it at the time (A couple of missions in Warcraft 3, where all we saw was the hellfire peninsula, and red orcs, plus the few descriptions from the books, all of them based on hellfire peninsula) we expected it to be an all red planet, with blood-red sky, full of blood red orcs, with all the zones being like hellfire peninsula, and yet........ it wasnt.
Surprisingly, there were zones like nagrand, or netherstorm, or terrokkar, who looked NOTHING like what we knew of outland at the time. So saying that TBC was going to be centered around red orcs and hellish land would had been a big fat lie.
When we traveled to Northrend....... based on what we knew at the time (A couple of missions from warcraft 3 and NOTHING ELSE) we'd expect a land full of nothing but snow, and fight nothing but scourge left and right....... and it wasn't.
Surprisingly, the only zones that looked like what we saw in warcraft 3 were icecrown, and dragonblight, and no, it was NOT an expansion centered on the scourge alone, in fact several of the zones we fought featured different threats, such as the vrykul, the wolfcult, the darkfallen, the old gods, the drakkari trolls, the scarlet onslaught, and a large ect. Northrend ended up being a very diverse land, both geographically, as well as in their population.
Now, we are going to pandaria, assuming that THEY are the only race living there is false, thus assuming the expansion is centered on them is also false. Many civilizations live on pandaria, and in fact the main reason this expac wont have a main bad guy is because the center of the expac is the war between the horde and alliance, and the consequences that war is having on the land.
but no, aparently, a lot of people have such a limited tunnel vision that all they see is: OMG PANDA WTF?
Ohh and if they stand out is because YOU want them to stand out.
On that list there are MANY humanoid animals, pandas being one of them, and neither stands out more than the other. Frankly in a list of animalistic humanoids the only thing that would stand out would be a freaky hybrid, like cenarius or magnataurs.

vrykul
, the
wolfcult
, the
darkfallen
, the old gods, the drakkari trolls, the scarlet onslaught, and a large ect. Northrend ended up being a very diverse land, both geographically, as well as in their population.
Most of whom are part of the scourge.
And the northerend zones really looked vastly similiar to me, with the exception of Crystalsong and Sholozar.

Vrykul only woke up after the events of the Frozen Throne, the Wulfcult is something created exclusively for Wrath.

Both of whom are part of the scourge, and so count as fighting scourge.

More or less. Just the same place with different locations and buildings.
