Who is the 'main' character IYO?

[snowyonetwo]

Straight forwards. Of the six playable characters who do you feel is supposed to be the 'main'? I kind of feel like it's supposed to be Sebille or Lohse but that's just my inclination.

I'd have to say Ifan or Fane, both of which are tied tightly to the main story. Definitely NOT Beast.

100% Fane. He plays byfar the biggest role in the main story. I personally prefer lohses questline more though, and like her more as a charakter overall (best waifu). Allthough, fane is the most interesting one, hers is just rampacked with emotions and truly beautiful and fun moments.

Fane doesn't just have a big role, the 'original sin' in the story was essentially his.

Well maybe not his i'd say the original sin is tied to the gods kicking their king out and so on but y he's clearly related to all of this

there are no main character, just a bunch of characters with various backstories to make you experience the game in different ways/with different point of views. I'll admit Beast has the weakest story of them all.

The Fane fanboys don't even realise the guy was not even supposed to be in the game originally, he came up as bonus from the kickstarter. Just because he's linked to the main story doesn't mean he's a main character in any shape or form.

The main character is the one you choose, simple as that.

I thought that the real original sin was the void convincing the guardians to open the godbox in the first game. but there is no mention of that in this game.

You say that like the story didn't change becuase of his inclusion. Maybe the writers liked him so much, they elevated him to "main character" status.

Personally, I think the main character is whomever you choose to play as... which is essentially the point of an RPG.

The Seven may have committed the greatest wrong, but Fane's allegorical match is that of eating from the tree - despite being commanded not to, he insisted on pursuing forbidden knowledge behind the king's back, and sharing it with his fellows (unwisely, as it turned out). And while his intentions may have been good, there's a certain infamous road paved with those - something he ends up learning the hard way.
