Rise of Azshara Now Live – Cinematic (Alliance)

[Adoxe]

Nanthos looks like he expected that !?!?!?!
Is there even i slight smile on his face????

He's holding Xal'atath and she's the one that led them there, so yeah he was most likely expecting it.

[Dizson]

When Cinematics have better quality than the game itself. sad.

[TriHard]

Not really a complaint. Merely an observation as I would expect at least a dialogue

If you really want a complain, here it is:

Im fucking sick of Nathanos

nathanos is a trash fucking filler character that needs to be removed, I would take 6 years of thrall over that stupid fucking garbage pile any day.
He was merely made to satisfy the edgy teens that still play this game

It's almost like the dagger has some kind of relationship with the Old Gods and Sylvanas is trusting it

nice so hyped for 8.2

classic beta can go f... itself

I can actually see the real reason why Tyrande and Malfurion aren't in Nazja'tar, they're fighting the Forsaken in Darkshore and presumably not in close communication with the rest of the Alliance, and since they didn't know they fall into Nazja'tar they didn't tell Tyrande

Well, Tyrande was kinda fighting Nathanos there... so I'm not quite sure that logic makes sense.

How did they survive a 100 feet fall onto rocks?

Giant hole opened up in the ocean defying physics? Sounds plausible. Men and creatures flinging magic from their hands - no worries. Flying air ships in a time of rudimentary technology - all gravy baby. Druid's shape-shifting into multiple creatures in mere seconds. Sounds about right.

They fell 100 feet and lived? Forget this, totally unrealistic.

According to the gameworld's internal logic, yes it is.

This is awesome and all. Specially how Azshara is just teasing N'Zoth. But I still don't understand why she needed to do the tidestone to do this. If we compare what Jaina can do this expansion and consider Azshara's relative power and years of experience...she should be capable of doing this on her own.

Since when has WoW had 'internal logic'. For that matter, what do you even mean by that? Characters in the story are constantly doing things we've never seen before and you just accept it (see: the tidestone making a giant hole in the ocean), yet you can't fathom a single way that magic or ingenuity could have helped them survive a simple fall?

Or another way to look at it - many character classes can avoid death in a fall. Slow fall, levitate, shadow step, heroic leap, paladin bubble, druid flappy thing, hunter disengage.

Maybe the tidestone is just keeping it held up. Not sure any of the mages in game can just do that and keep it going without concentrating/casting on it.

[Rexosaurus]

According to the gameworld's internal logic, yes it is.

He probably just used heroic leap right before he landed. That's Warrior Fast Travel 101.

EDIT: Damn youuuuu Voxnor.

I agree 8.2 ftw!

[DemonHunter18]

LoL this is gonna be the same as always.

New Patch Cinematic: Fuck yeah, this is awesome!!! Hype is real!!!!

Questing in the Area: LoL what the hell is this!? Nazjatar sucks!!!

Final Patch Cinematic: Wtf is this garbage writing!? Blizzard sucks!!!

[------------------------]

holy shit, blizz made her hot

[Darknessvamp]

"She's not responding!" It's a boat, is this really meant to be the crack team navel forces of the Alliance? Also is Nathanos using the dagger as a compass?

A fair point. Spells require focus. Still. If she did it on her own it wouldn't have raised the question of how a bunch of naga waltzed into the Tomb and snatched a super important relic with nobody the wiser.

She should have used the Pearl of Pandaria. That is not guarded, was sought after by naga in the comic, and has no use now. Oh well.

*Sylvanas' redemption story-arc incoming*

But seriously, Sylvanas and Nathanos are a Mary Sue couple at this point, and the Alliance is apparently a bunch of idiots.
Saddened to see Aszhara and Naz'jatar being used in this expansion. But I hope with every nerd fiber that it is awesome and that it makes WoW a better game.

What’s the problem with she’s not responding? Ships are often given female pronouns.

[Psykho]

Well, Tyrande was kinda fighting Nathanos there... so I'm not quite sure that logic makes sense.

It does, Nathanos is Sylvanas' right hand he goes where she needs him to, Tyrande most likely won't bother to chase him unless he's leading the Forsaken against her, or just happens to be in Darkshore or Ashenvale, she isn't concerned with what everyone else is doing just what's happening in darkshore, it's doubtful she's keeping in contact beyond receiving resources
