>>314763002>He's the insert.You mean the focus character. It's the character who you see the world through and yes, they can be considered a side character.
>is the main character is like saying Yuna is the MC in FFXThat's because she is, her and Tidus are both the main characters, as the story revolves around them.
Main character means that you can't remove them or the story would significantly change.
>>314763080>The closest to a main character is Locke. He's kind of the center point of the whole teamExcept he isn't. Locke's role in the game is pretty much non existent and you could replace him without losing much. His story is he is looking for revenge against the Empire because of his comatose girl, so he joined the Returners. That's it. He doesn't get much development, he only gets a small bit of closure and the only portion of the game where his actions dramatically influence events is his rescuing of Celes from South Figaro and leading the search party for Terra after she went berserk.
Honestly when I started I thought he was going to be the typical main character and when he didn't end up anywhere close to that, I felt somewhat cheated.
If there is anything I hate FFVI for, it's that with it's sizable cast, there wasn't any place for them to develop much.
