Description
It's not the Jaina we deserve, but the one we need right now.I got this idea today when at work, thinking of a story I am trying to write (as of the day of posting of this image). It has nothing to do with the story, since the idea somewhat evolved, but this is the result. Obviously contains many mistakes, and isn't entirely complete, but it's as far as my skills go as of now.
Materials used are Jaina's look as of Mists of Pandaria, taken from mmo-champion.com, the RISE posters used for advertisement campaign for The Dark Kngith Rises and respective logos of World of Warcraft and Blizzard. And as usually, everything applicable is a property, trademark and so on of their respective owners.
EDIT: Due to negative reaction within the first few minutes, this was moved to Scrapbook.
EDIT2: Despite being in scrapbook, this one got two likes, so I might as well throw it out into the world. Take that, haters. (the two other similar pictures remain there, though)

Both lists are not short. Beforehand disclaimer, I am almost (-almost-) exclusively an Alliance player, so I am looking forward to change of Alliance quests from "they nuked us, we don't care" kind of nonsense to a coherent story (even if it is about loss - a great story of loss is still a great story, see Letters From Iwo-Jima). I'm looking forward to a the change of environment. To new content to do. And I like generally how the environment and most of the presented gear looks.
What I am not looking forward to is the skewered talent trees; I liked them best in WotLK. As a protection paladin as a main and quite a bit at heart, I am a bit worried that the changes will render "us" inferior, though I preffer to apply "wait and see"; I'm also a bit worried that our DPS might be lowered enough that questing on "our own" might end up unsustainable (considering the reported ShotR damage being down to the "wet noodle" kind from being "our" highest damage dealer).
Obviously, I didn't play the beta, so I may be wrong in quite a few. I don't want to spoil it myself any more than the screenshots presented on MMO-Champion and WoW Insider.

Hey man I'm actually both for the Horde and Alliance, but I like Horde more and that doesn't mean I like the whole Thereamore being destroyed bit, by Garrosh and his lackies.
I really hate Garrosh so much I really want to kill him.
The talent tree system is too basic again, but its like oh choose this one and you can have it forever!
I'm hoping to get into the next Beta wave and see if I can get into World of Warcraft when Mists of Pandaria goes through and has its time for me.
Oh and a question as well. Are you gonna miss Cataclysm at all man?

Hm... Miss Cataclysm? As a whole, most likely not. I do not revile Cataclysm per se; I did like Bastion of Twilight and Firelands, for example. The problem of Cataclysm, in my opinion, was that if we go with the theory of "Making life better = decreasing suck + increasing awesome", Cataclysm severly lacked in the "awesome" part. It didn't do anything outright horribly bad; but there was nothing really remarkable about it. In my opinion, anyway.
All in all, no I probably won't miss it. It is overshadowed by Wrath of the Lich King on way too many aspects, so even if MoP turns out to be worse, it will still be WotLK that I'll miss.

I did like the races they added in which the Goblins and Worgen were introduced and I like on how Thrall (Go'el) was badass.
I prefer The Burning Crusade and I'm actually looking forward to Mists of Pandaria. :3
Oh and what you think of having Ogres as playable and more playable races for Horde, Alliance, and Neutral?

Playable ogres? Well... I'm not sure. They are too... different when it comes to how they work. Not to mention that their racial behavior would be too unbelievable had they been played.
As for other races, well... I would like to see playable high elves, provided it would be done well. But overall, I think the number should be increased only carefully; there's quite a lot of them already.

To a certain degree, yes. There are a few things I am not happy about, but there are others that I certainly am happy about. And considering what it comes after, I hope the next month and a half will pass quickly.

Mind me asking what are the things you are looking forward too and the stuff you are not?
