When the cutscene ended I spawned off the raft, I had to crawl my way back up the tube while listening to the dialogue and trying to process what happened.
Mai Trin may have saved New Kaineg and gotten a monument in her honor, but one wonders how that monument would be viewed by all the people who lost loved ones (including children) that were slaughtered when she led the Aetherblade to destroy Lion's Arch under Scarlet Briar's orders. Also getting shot by one of your own crew members is a pretty standard retirement package for pirate captains, so this always struck me as more of a case of reap what you sow than heroic sacrifice.
Ankka shouldn't have died so early or at all, was a bit of a let down for me to build her up like that only to cut her story off just like that. And she had a great voice actress too.

It would've been great that Scarlet's legend had some sort of twisted marionette take the shot or something.
Nooo! Why Mai?! 😢 Not many left for the Commander to drink with now other than Braham..😕

Ankka went to waste as a character. She had real potential as a villain for future content and was given way too short a run.

That VA did a wonderful job. From the moment you meet her in Lornar's Pass I just wanted her to keep talking.
Headshot
This is the interesting and rare occurrence of a very good cinematic being wasted on a stupid story beat.
il never forgive Anet for this
I wonder, if you could upload the Joon/Taimi cutscene from Joon's mansion chapter - can't find it anywhere :|
Oh sorry I missed that one 😬, I still have the raw footage so ill get that up today
