    I have to ask, what does calling Venat a mentally ill psychopath add to this discussion? It just seems like a lot of snarl words that strip her of any agency in her actions.

    After all, if she's mentally ill and psychopathic, then she hardly even has the capacity to be responsible for her actions.If you want to condemn the sundering, fine. But your condemnation would actually be stronger if you insist she was an empathic person acting in good faith, who was in fact, not a deranged pyschopath.

    Just sounds like an excuse to hate on a character because they don't like her for other reasons that they'd rather not say out loud. She freely admits it was a cruel thing to do and it gave only a chance at victory but that's better than the zero percent chance they had before.

    Its just my opinion of her. I wasnt just saying that, i also gave reasons as to why i believe it and the overall discussion.Funny how no one ever called this out when people called the Garleans nazi's or what have you. Seems like theres a heavy case of bias people have for their favorite character.

    Except we dont know whether it was 0% chance or no, thats speculation. What other reasons do you think there could be? I already gave reasons as to why i dislike her, backed by the actual in game lore. She admits it was a cruel thing, the game itself paints a different picture and bashes you over the head with the fact shes 100% right, shes great, benevolent, such a hero.The grey morality they promised us isnt there, especially not if you compare it to the grey morality of ShB.
