Like, even in such a surreal and wild show, I just can't suspend my disbelief far enough to buy that a literal god was outsmarted by a bunch of humans, whether that be the 7K or Trieu.
The only time in the comic that he isn't in control is when he literally can't see what's going to happen because of Veidt's machine. In the show, he knows exactly how he's going to be killed for at least ten years, and when the time comes he just lets it happen? Him letting it happen "because it happens" isn't a good explanation. Please guys, tell me I've missed something important here?
