Seems to me you don't understand the fact animal suffering isn't conducive to enjoyment in video games. Fairly straight forward to most. You haven't picked up on the trend of resentment? Seems like a you issue "BowFunes".
But you see, you're just picking the parts convenient for your argument. What about the flaming pigs? Those can be saved from their torment, even when they're people transformed, the same with the cows in Driftwood, but you chose to ignore them. You can help the rat with the "truthful" curse and she's grateful for it. You can save Birdie from a terrible fate. You can save the chicken's egg...
I've encountered hundreds of dead bodies, most of them killed by voidwoken, but they don't seem to bother you (not even the Shriekers, which are basically infinite torture).
It's natural for an evil force of destruction to leave a wave of death behind it - in fact, the turtles in the beach actually tells you that they're being corrupted from the inside, just like many people out there. You just want to be offended by the logical outcome of it.
It's a darker game than before, even when the story is beyond stupid with the CHOSENONE!!! theme, and I like it.
