The feeling of beeing Home ...

It was clear to me very fast but they double-downed on it in the expansions. In Shadowbringers, we were finally teased as being a villain, but we weren't. But what makes it more clear than anything is actually the final boss music in dungeons and the quest battle music, which is hero music.

In no way did they tease that the WoL would be a villain in ShB...The title warrior of light and warrior of darkness are a throwback reference to FF3. The warriors of dark fought against the cloud of darkness. It was obvious from the get go that ShB would be themed similarly.

A throwback to FF3 is irrelevant to people who have not played FF3 or other FF games, so to them it is teasing it.

It was not clear what they meant, but the fact your character was surrounded by darkness and being called the Warrior of Darkness was a hint that you could be in the position of doing something evil to one people in order to do something good for another.

The Ascians had been warning us about the growing imbalance of light for a long time. Because we did not understand what "light" and "dark" was, it seemed to a lot of people that we had spread too much light and in order to save the world we needed to become evil like Ardbert and restore the balance between light and dark.

But SE didn't go with actually making us evil and just made it a title that people use for their hero.
