    If she was arguing that it was bad to try and reclaim those lives then there is no reason to add onto it “by sacrificing yet more.” She explicitly brings up the act of killing others as part of the problem.



    I can have intelligent conversations with a chat bot! There are all sorts of programs that can resemble sentience, but I don’t think they're making living being yet. And their resistance to dying wasn’t motivated by their desire to live, but their desire to see through the will of their summoners!



    I don’t have to handwave whole cutscenes to justify my perspective at the very least.
    You’re being purposefully obtuse. With how much you pride yourself on being a lore specialist, you should know them from bozja’s lore that personal memory events are EXTREMELY malleable and biased. We literally see this with Cid where he chose to see Varis shooting him as opposed to his father, to help make himself feel better about his decision. Hmmmm….wonder if Venat’s walk might be the same? Purposefully seeing things a certain way to make herself feel better and right about what she did. It would certainly mimic the actions of her advocates at least

    First I have never, ever, ever described myself as a lore specialist. That is something you guys repeatedly claim I think with no justification. I will however say yiu maybe should go back and look at the Bozja storyline again as I’m pretty sure the mechanism they use to look at acids memories is different than the means we used to travel the Rift. Better comparison is the Shadowbringers intro, which has us doing the exact same thing.

    She tries to prevent the destruction of all life but sundering the world yes, I’m glad we’re on the same page.
