If you could disband the main character...

Since Dungeon Siege lets you do this, I thought it'd be fun to ask you all which main characters you'd like to expell from your party in any given game.

I find most RPG/JRPG main characters to be insufferable, so I'd probably leave a trail of dead bodies in my wake as I tackle them xD

Final Fantasy VII without Cloud would probably be a top pick for me, though.

You?

I'm a main character guy, heck, Cyclops is my favourite member of the X-Men.
Fighting evil isn't the hard part, deciding to fight evil is. So many people will join an enterprise when it looks successful, only a real hero begins something that nobody wants to touch.
So I always respect the character who appeared first and got the ball rolling, even if their personality isn't ideal.

I usually tends to like main character of games that i played. It's only a few MC's from lesser know RPGs, that i would disband if it could be possible. So, disbanding main characters from games isn't something that i really want.

I can't really make an example, but I love when rpgs give you many party members and you can freely choose without being forced with one of them (except if it's for a part of the plot, like in FF13, when you are forced with two of them, then two others, and so on, I'm okay with that, but in the end you can put whoever you want).

When I first try ffx, I didn't really like Tidus. As many other players I didn't like the tone of his voice or the way he was dressed, with those ragged shorts. Then there was the fact that right from the start of the game, he was already a celebrity in a somewhat silly underwater sport, which I later learned to appreciate. I’m not sure who I’d put in his place on the party; the elderly Auron had class to spare, but he would have completely changed the game as we know it. It’s not an easy question...

The moment I got Morag on Xenoblade 2 i benched that self insert of a mc the game has

Who ever the Point of View character of "The Last Remnant" was.
He was already an idiot from the opening scenes but, after the tutorial cave, my hatred was cemented when he walks straight up to the army leader and begins touching him even after being warned off by the body guards.

FFVII Remake. Could. Tell him to fuck off. Make Barrett or Tifa the MC.

Could gets killed by Sephiroth.

Barrett :"Yall gotta be careful now!"
Aerith: "You wouldn't want me to get killed do you?"
4th wall breaking moment, Aerith, Tifa, Barrett and Red XIII turn their heads and look at the camera.

Edge in Star Ocean 4 immediately comes to mind — he is absolutely useless. I just pretend Reimi is my main character the whole game and don’t control him in battle unless I have to.

Yuna in FFX. I swear that woman would ‘selflessly’ throw herself into a spike pit in front the party when it could be easily walked around, thereby dragging everyone ELSE into the damn pit. Lulu should have been the lead. >:(

Cloud. FUCKING AUTO CORRECT. CLOUD!!! Who the fuck is Could?

 

[Heidegger of Shinra]

Cloud. FUCKING AUTO CORRECT. CLOUD!!! Who the fuck is Could?

Could is the new would. See a shorty that peaks your interest "could". If anyone questions you, you know you've got all the necessary equipment
