Like what? What exactly are the plethora of things they could have done with him?
Have him hunt down and kill everyone precious to the WoL since the body possessing thing adds the possessed's memories as shown by Lahabrea in ARR. Take Zodiark's power for himself after Fandaniel is killed. Hell, change history so that he unwillingly becomes Zodiark's core after deciding to wipe out mankind to have his fight with the WoL on a mountain of corpses. Haunt the WoL with their own crimes by having the thoughts of their enemies screamed by their victims. Not be cast aside for the majority of EW like Emet-Selch absolutely would have been if ShB came out today. Not be reduced to a damn floor. Not have a solo instance that unlike Varis doesn't even get an Extreme version that could have acted as a gateway to an exploratory zone. Do something with the fact that he's the grandson of a damn Ancient. Add the damn side story to the game like everything else they should have as A) I ain't reading all that otherwise as it doesn't matter and B) it would have salvaged him at least.
