Thanks for the response about the character limit.

We're never going to agree about the rest. I certainly did not feel I was allowed to think ill of her. My WoL goes along with everything she does (returning to those lobotomized days of ARR) while all the major NPCs repeatedly excuse or defend her actions. Her having a couple of moments of self-awareness doesn't change anything. Speaking of ARR, I can't help but notice the similarities with Minfilia. I found her a thoroughly unlikable character, but NPCs consistently gush over her. Maybe having a few dialog options where I could've at least said "I don't agree with what you've done, but you've given me no choice other than to follow through" would have helped, instead it was quite the opposite.
