Thanks for coming along for our journey! We're slowly dissecting the information here as we get confirmation from Emet-Selch himself about what his intentions always were. Would you consider them justified?
Emet is such a great, wonderful antagonist. To him we are broken souls living a broken, misserable existance, harming ourselves, eachother and the star. How many monkeys would you kill to restore the people you love?
@ArthurOfThePond He really is. You can literally see the burden he carries in his character, but it's more than that. He speaks to us as if we've betrayed him for not being good enough to help him save his people. Beating him almost didn't feel as good because I do understand what he's doing but we gotta protect our own.
I think Emet-Selch has every right to attempt to repo the shredded parts of his people. And I also think the Scions have every right to try to stop him. I didn't have issue with fighting him, because even if I might feel sorry for a starving bear, I'm not feeding myself to one to save his life.
Yeah, it's definitely a situation that I thought was really well written and the peak here was fantastic. I definitely want to defend my friends, family and our world but his perspective does make sense and I feel a little bad for his, what I would call, obsession with trying to be the Hero for his people. The burden he's been carrying is insane.
@@kilzorgaming Oh yeah, his position is unimaginably horrific. Imagine if the entire human race got turned into ants, but you could smoosh them back into people again, however it would take thousands of years and over that time the ants evolved and built little ant cities and had ant religions and ant languages. Now the ants could beg for their lives in a language you could understand. And we're not even gonna talk about how he mated with one of the ants and produced a little ant dynasty. I'm sorry, but by the time you're breeding with us, we get people status. Them the rules.
@MissKashira Oh, 100%. The fact he still wanted to destroy the Source to return his Brethren speaks about how, over the years, he found us "wanting." Dudes got high standards.
@@kilzorgaming We befriended an alien race and ate its eyes. He's right. We're a mess. In my personal headcanon I like to think of Allag as their attempt to stop. To see if they'd gotten "close enough" to the world they lost by helping us build a post-scarcity society. And instead of world peace, the sundered got bored, started sewing dog heads on people and resurrected the dead to start new wars. Who would look at that and think "yeah, this is good enough?" Can you blame them for going back to smooshing? He's thinking one last horrible death to prevent endless horrible deaths.
