She would have been a mysterious character that, for some reason, decided to turn a thief, etc. Even Fran could have been hypothetically the Main POV of the game. And could had the story developed and focused on himself only. He was never meant to be THE hero.īalthier has is own story and could have been the hero. You just start this massive story with him first. Vaan is just ONE of the Heroes of this story. Same has a Game of Thrones, you don't have a Main Character followed by secondary roles but a series of Main Roles on the story.
Step FF players outside of that and they are lost.įinal Fantasy XII wasn't written like this. The first one is that they are too used to conventional formulas for 'heroic-fantasy' games were they interpret a Main Character. People don't liked Vaan for different reasons. Why people need to relate to 'a Main Character/Hero' is the right question, here.
