That's pretty different from "unapologetically evil." She's still got those bits of hesitation and regret that nobody ever talks about in AM.
I can sympathize with that frustration. A lot of people can, probably, that "AM Edelgard is best Edelgard" take is pretty common. They do kind of explain it as Eldelgard being softened by Byleth's presence, so maybe it's supposed to be an "I can fix her" sort of thing...but if that's the case, it really doesn't do a good job.
That's what I mean in >>1967447. Don't just say "man, Teacher, I would have been a real bitch without you around" and leave it at that, that's really weak. Actually show Edelgard doing fucked up stuff and let us go "El, that's really fucked up." If you want this to be a healing route then make it something that happens over time that we actually see and participate in, and if not, then show that hesitation and regret in force, Edelgard confiding in Byleth behind closed doors and exposing her softer side, laying her heart bare.
>lie to her army about Slithers bombing and saying it was Rhea instead
That drives me crazy. Edelgard goes and does the exact thing she's mad at Rhea for doing, doesn't realize it, and it's just not acknowledged at all. Fucking christ. It should be some big "you're becoming the monster you're fighting!" thing when instead it feels like the writers just did it by accident, which is insane.
>Just a super complete fucked up form of determination
My nigga. That's the good shit.

>Arvis, Travant, Zeph, and Ashnard are more heroic than her
lol sure
