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

[Eisi]

I don't think anyone in this thread who is critical of the writing surrounding Venat is suggesting that the story is particularly deep, at any rate. It's simply being suggested that if a writer intentionally or unintentionally makes a character directly complicit in acts of genocide, racial replacement and eugenics then there should be more room for the player to criticise such actions - especially when the game spent a decade's worth of writing establishing such actions as being considered to be morally reprehensible within the setting.

That's contradictory. The writers didn't know that they inadvertently wrote a genocidal character so they couldn't have built in options to criticize that.

The story isn't deep precisely because the writers don't care about it as much. You care more about the story than they do.
