>They couldn't make Calus genuinely repulsive after what he was shown to do for the common folk
i doubt most players knew any of this, Calus is just likeable
he loves us, loves watching us fight, gives us gifts, wants us to grow fat from strength
he's an interesting character and his dialogue is fun and enjoyable to listen to
and even after they made him into a bad parent who is also a puppy murderer, and the line from duality about the dead being just raw resources, and Caiatl convincing us that he's an evil monster, i don't see anyone hating on him
everyone still loves Emperor Calus, despite Bungie's best efforts
