It's not the pronoun I have a problem with, it's the fact they're acting like it's an plane or something they're riding in. Plus they were literally sailing straight in pursuit when the sea just opened up in front of them so it's extra dumb to act like a ship not making a sudden stop or turn is something shocking if they're sailors.

Don't know why you are surprised over that. Sounds like typical wow story stuff to me in general. Throw in some random things without making sense.

Why are you being so nitpicky over verbiage used by a random sailor....
In reality, the sailor would probably just have screamed, "Oooohhhhhhh Shhheeeeeiiiiiiiittttt!!" No matter how experienced.

Maybe it's just me but that cinematic didn't do it for me.

True true.

Because these are apparently the best they still have of their navy and it somewhat makes what is meant to be a dramatic moment a bit stupider if their sailors don't understand how a ship functions. I mean unless their intent (writers) is just to showcase how inept everyone is this expansion. To be frank I would prefer if he did just scream that or by the light or literally anything else that keeps their story somewhat consistent.

god azshara step on me

Ah makes more sense that way.

It’s quite easy to realise the entire event is sped up a little. They’re not going to waste a cinematic showing the boats trying to stop or turn in “real time”. The sea goes from fine to being massive open in the space of 6-7 seconds in that cinematic, when you see that it’s not even moving *that* fast (just as the Alliance ships tip over the edge). Then again, this is a fantasy game we’re taking about where trying to apply real life logic and physics is nothing more than trying to have a mental pissing game about stuff that doesn’t really matter.

Jaina teleported in, then cast slowfall or whatever that mage spell is called and finally teleported back to his house.

All I could think of seeing Greymane sliding when the ship went over.

Give the horde one now
And dayum bro azshara is hot. real hot.

This trailer ironically looked better than the last one. And yes, Azshara IS hot.

I can pretty much any Worgen looking like that in that situation, perhaps other races as well

They were caught by squids or landed on jellyfish

We were fated to pretend, start believing in magic!
