Zone Diversity

[Bulletdance]

Hey guys, I have not played beta and have only seen some youtube vids of the new zones so I wanted to ask your opinions on them.
I felt there were a little too many similar looking zones in wrath. Too much white. All the mists zones look beautiful,but do they suffer from too much green in a way? Do they all feel like one zone or do they truly feel individual?

I find all the zones to be very diverse and unique from one another.

The Jade Forest is the iconic green zone with bamboo forests and rich foliage. It's beautiful and vivid, and seems to encompass the overall feel of what one might expect from Pandaria.

Valley of the Four Winds is more of a yellow-green, and it's an open zone with rolling hills and farmlands.

Krasarang Wilds is one of my favourites so far. It's this wild, dark jungle with thick choking vines, gnarled tree roots, and ancient ruins. It has a very primordial feel that differs from places like Stranglethorn and Sholazar. It's the best jungle area Blizzard has done yet, in my opinion.

Kun-Lai Summit has two distinct areas. It has dry, arid steppes with browns and tans, but as you travel higher in altitude you find the most stunning snowy mountains.

Townlong Steppes has a completely different feel, there's a blue aura prevalent in the entire area. It's very surreal but eerily beautiful.

The Dread Wastes is another zone that has a look all its own. Dark, shadowy, alien. Lots of black and blue.

Vale of Eternal Blossoms has a colour scheme more akin to Eversong Woods. Very rich in gold, red, orange...autumny colours. It's gorgeous.

I have to agree, they're very different. You really feel like you're changing elevations and climates as you travel. The vegetation, light, colour palettes, everything feels different.

Yeah, there're really very different environments. I guess you could say that generally green is the dominant colour, but I really think there's enough diversity to keep it interesting.

Don't know if you've seen it already, but Wowhead has a visual tour of pandaria that shows everything very well.

It certainly is not that kind of diversity we had with Outland, where each and every zone looked as if it belonged to a different planet. It's more like Northrend - different landscapes, but of (roughly) the same land.
