Antagonists who've done less were raked over the coals, but Venat is celebrated. I'll never understand it. I can only assume the backlash from Japanese players was worse than it was here because Reddit and western streamers/YouTubers have done nothing but gush about EW. I've only see dissent here, on the official forums, which Yoshi-P never cites as one of the places he goes for game feedback (oddly).



Sadly. Given how much the unsundered changed after the sundering the excuse that their people couldn't change (also ignoring those who were on Venat's side) isn't accurate, it's just the Zodiark Cultist Strawmen group at the end of Elpis all over again. Though, Yoshi-P was explicit that's what Venat thought and clearly she did not have a favorable opinion of her own people.
You keep saying this without any source besides some selected quotes from a popularity poll where she came in third. That's not an actual barometer.
