Endwalker: MSQ thoughts and first impressions...(NO SPOILERS)

[@wackantheduck6883]

I will never understand why wowfugees seem to have such a hatred for Zenos. He's an excellent foil to the warrior of light and is quite a well done character

[@theconspicuousmoo8668]

We should agree to disagree on this one. Wowfugees are most likely looking at Zenos and thinking he's a poor man's Arthas. They're not wrong tbf.

@@theconspicuousmoo8668 In what possible manner could he be compared to arthas besides being a prince? Zenos is not some tragic villain, he's not interested in a greater political goal nor does he care about any of the people he harms on his warpath. He's the carnal desire to fight, to kill, to eat, to breed made manifest. These greater loftier goals simply doesn't concern him. He says as much in your encounters with him in Ala mhigo and during Endwalker. In his own words; "would you be happier had I a good reason?"

@@wackantheduck6883 They're visually similar. I just don't connect with the character because it's single-faceted, dull and very much second place to the main villain of the piece. It's a very simple character with no depth that should be quietly decomposing in Ala Mhigo. I mean, he was a dull antagonist the first time. But you know, horses for courses.
