Why are there so few details about this expansion on IMDB?


Mists of Pandaria has been officially out for months now - I don't understand why there isn't more information about the full cast and crew details for it. Does anyone know?

Speaking as someone that is a "serious" "older" gamer that has played WoW since vanilla and yet still enjoys the game, I can honestly say the broad generalizations about how the only ones that like the new expansion must be little kids is getting very tired. It's funny just how many of us there are that were willing to give the changes a chance, that think this is the best expansion for new lore and content that they've created to date, and are still quite willing to keep subscribing.

You're entitled to your opinion, but a simple question was asked, and I'd appreciate a legitimate answer without this degrading into "WOW is for noobz and kung fu pandas sux" troll fest.

To be fair i actually think john's response was legit, and while the implications
are harsh i think the message was delivered in a respectable manner.

The game has definitely shifted in it's focus from the days of
Burning Crusade to this expansion. At first i quite enjoyed Pandaria. The
way the storyline line was presented through quests and exploration of
the new continent were VERY well-done. I loved the journey from 85-90
on my shaman.

However, at 90 the game really breaks down in my opinion. The DAILY grind
that blizz created in this expansion is just ridiculous. Seriously it
seemed like you had to do nearly 60 dailies A DAY to progress. It got
boring very very quickly. I want to progress and RAID, but the road to
getting the initial gear required is dreadfully dull.

Add to that that the player base IS getting younger and more inexperienced
and the frustration factor rises quickly. I didn't buy into the whole
"kindergarten" idea, but then i started noticing doing LFD and LFRs that
i was running into people who didn't seem to have any concept of
how to play the game...

Speaking as a healer, that is not fun. I can remember dungeons and raids
that would take hours to clear, where every pull could mean a wipe
if every one in the group wasn't on top of their roles, using CC's and
paying attention to attack orders, etc.

In this expansion, more then ever, i found i was in group after group
where people would just damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead! And expect
the healer to heal everyone through any damage and stupidity.

I was in one LFD and the tank announces that he is 9 years old, and a dps
responds "me too!" At first i thought they were joking but then
it became quite evident IT WAS TRUE!

What the hell are 9 year olds doing playing this game?


LFR has made raiding an absolute joke. Blizz HAS to dumb the content
down because there is no way that the LFR dynamic could regularly provide
you with a group that is able to work together as a cohesive unit!

The game is much more geared towards the XBOX generation then ever before, and
to be honest i don't get the satisfaction out of the challenge that
i used to. Blizz wants to be sure that everyone is able to see the content.

That's not what i signed up for. I desire a challenge! I was happy when
not everyone was seeing Illidan. That's the way the game SHOULD be! There
should always be soemthing that you are striving to achieve!

I completely believe that the player base is dropping.
