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

[Dorito_Burrito]

If it was inevitable, it should be made to be believable that it was inevitable. Efforts outlined above should have been shown and defeated within the scene.

As it stands, the fact that Venat can precision materialize a second Argos to save the WoL from their fall means she could have materialized another Argos ahead of Meteion and caught her.

Cutscenes revolving around pivotal events shouldn't be careless. If we were wrapped in chains for the majority of the monologuing, that would be one thing, but we were not.

Argos can create a double of itself. Not only does Venat mention this herself, you literally see two of them in the same place after you battle her.
