Problematic notion about Zone 5 & 6 story bits.

[Kirutsuki]

And I get that remembering people is a direct nudge towards the fact that Emet-Selch asks us to remember them, the ancients etc. And there is novelty in that, and truth. People are remembered by others. But what about the people who aren't?

What about the people who don't get to make friends in their lives, they don't get to make connections when they were alive? The people who's whole family died? Who didn't find happiness? Who are they remembered by? For those people a system that let's them have a resemblance of life beyond death might be a blessing they need.

And it's incredibly wrong for us to judge that as something unnatural or wrong, especially when their entire civilization was faced with certain doom.

Maybe, maybe I'm overlooking something incredibly simple. But to me, this ending was just stupid and the only way to make it make sense is to say that we were in a rush and just had to literally send thousands if not millions of people to the Aetherial Sea.

Hydaelyn would literally groan in her grave.

I just felt so miserable every time Wuk Lamat or someone else, especially if it was G'raha or Krile saying this system is somehow unnatural or a perversion of their beliefs. I never took them as people who held so fast on the idea that all people should just go to the Aetherial Sea without having a stopping point at a gas station.

I get that the Endless are literally endless, that they NEVER move on. But the solution to that is to just tell the people and try to make Sphene to tell the truth about the system to her subjects. But no, I guess we kill Sphene instead and I guess she forgot to make backups just in case.
