Everyone knew this expansion was dedicated mostly to china gamers. Guild Wars 2 is much better.

This wasn't as big a problem for the regime as say something like Command and Conquer:Generals-> a game designed with getting instant banned in China in mind.

Even if a game did get banned, the pirates aren't going to give a crap, they're going the copy and distributed (freely or at a price) those software.

Of course it was. The Pandaria expansion was made for China, it's WoW's only growing market.

Pandas aren't even real. Some Chinese invention.

The first expansion for WoW wasn't released in 2009.... It was released in 2006.

Yay for the Chinese. You know when i went to sleep last night all i thought about was Kate Beckinsale and weather or not the Chinese would be able to play Mists of Pandaria. Now i can sleep well.
