Disappointed in one Endwalker Aspect [SPOILERS]

[Ryaz]

Final Days started? Happened.
Hythlodaeus sacrificing himself? Happened.
Venat trying to convince people to come to terms with the sadness and move on? Happened.
People ignoring her words and going for another sacrifice? Happened.
Venat finally deciding to become Hydaelyn and Sunder the world? Happened.

I do not see anything untrue, and I'm wondering what exactly you're looking at that is untrue.

The story didn't go in a direction he wanted, so he's attacking it. Which is fine that he didn't like. Myself and many others loved it and that scene.

What helped me is that I didn't go into EW with any preconceived notions. Speculations? Yes. But I had no beliefs about Hydalaen and Zodiark being good or evil. I didn't go in expecting a bunch if characters to die. So for me, I just got to enjoy the story without it going against my pre-established head canon, which helped immensely.

I just got to spend a lot of fun times with characters I've loved from 2.0 and new characters I met in this expac. That's all that mattered to me.

Yeah, I don't have a problem with someone not liking a thing. Hell, I didn't like all the Amaurot stuff in Shadowbringers, I get it.

But this has just become frustrating and sad. It's okay to not like a thing, but trying to declare the thing just factually wrong because of it, that's... I don't know. Grasping at straws to legitimize what's ultimately just an opinion, I guess. Mixed in with a very 'lore nerd' way of thinking about it all, I guess; 'if I don't like this story, and the main thing I care about is in-universe facts, then that must mean its in-universe facts are wrong'.
