They should have given the WoL an Emet-Selch costume instead of a bunny costume because we were doing a mighty fine impression of him in Living Memory.

I keep bringing up Venat because an appeal to nature is what's being used to justify the callous actions taken against the Endless. They are unnatural, therefore it's okay for plan A to be wipe them all out. We'll the Sundered are unnatural too, so why can't Emet-Selch's plan A be to wipe us all out? BTW, that's rhetorical because I'm sure you'll draw some arbitrary line between us and the Endless that makes it more okay to kill them, but the Unsundered can draw just as many arbitrary lines between themselves and the Sundered. If it's wrong to kill the Sundered because they are sentient beings, then it's wrong to kill the Endless for the same reason.

As for why I don't just quit, well I'll played this game for the past 10 years, I played through the story for the first time a year ago. I very much enjoyed Shadowbringers, but after that it did get kinda weird and preachy about how some groups of people just HAVE to be wiped out. And yeah, not really enjoying that that very odd moral they keep doubling down on and I do wish they'd stop. And had I known the quality of the DT story, I would have gone back to scene skipping like I had the prior 9 years. But I thought what were the chances we'd end up wiping out another group of innocent people. I'm sure it'll be fineeee...

Definitely egg on my face with that one.

Also, can you provide somewhere it says that anyone on Venat's faction was aware she intended to rip every man, woman and child into 14 pieces and were totally on-board with that? Because I've never seen that anywhere, including EE3. It sounds like she galvanized them on the premise of stopping the third sacrifice, which what's the point if the third sacrifice is gonna get shredded along with everything and everyone else? The Watcher makes it sound like not only was she incredibly vague with her plans, she gutted chunks of his and the Twelves' memories to make sure the Sundered world was shaped by her influence and hers alone.
