What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[Turtledeluxe]

People acting like Venat knew definitively what the sundering would result in are either trolling or didn't understand the scene. Yes she knew she was sundering the world and it would result in the loss of their perfect forms and paradise but it's not like she had a full view of the next 1000 years+ and how every reflection would develop on am anthropolical or political level. She also had no real choice because a. No one would have believed her story and b. Summoning Zodiark is itself purposeful and deliberate genocide. Case closed.

People hand waving it away as some diabolical plan are just mad that EW is the most critically acclaimed expansion of the entire XIV msq AND had the most concurrent players the game will likely ever see.

Also this isn't a Bethesda game. There no chance letting the player decide the narrative beyond your little word bubbles would have ever had the same impact.
