Critique of Endwalker Characters

[Kolsykol]

I feel like people downplay G'raha's role more often just cause of his hero-worship or fanboyism attitude, which some may find annoying but this is something that is more tolerable and looked at as 'cute' in Eastern culture.

Whether you think he is annoying or not, him having photogenic memory helped him learn the levitation spell which he used to uncover the secrets within the noumenon, which then proceed to use that spell to save dozen of people including ourselves in the Tower of Zot, then what he did in Thavanir which particularly one of his highlight moments in EW, without his stance things would have turned out far worst, and his existence alone helped us travel back to Elpis, it was him who kept Elidibus stored within the tower and it is him alone who is able to control the tower, and with his help we went back to Elpis and uncovered all we needed to know.

I am sorry, you may find him annoying or insufferable or whatever really, but that will never downplay his role within the Scions, he did same if not even more than what others did as well, so in general, choosing to ignore all that is just a person being willingly blind.

Also while some people think that him as the Exarch was really cool and awesome, I hate when people keep secrets to themselves thinking it is for the greater good, and that is something Urangier was doing alot, so I never was happy with the whole Exarch "I know what's best for us" thing.

That is my opinion.

Imo I don't mind Gra'ha so much.
But I also didn't like how the game treated him as if I as the player thought he was the best thing ever.
I didn't view him as the Exarch really I viewed him as a new guy and that's how he came across to me, he was basically Gra'ha with the Exarch's memories if I remember and understand it correctly.
Which is fine, I consider the Exarch dead tho because that's actually what did happen regardless of the soul transference he still did die in the Crystal Tower in Shadowbringers.
So the writers treating Gra'ha like my best friend and giving him so much attention over the other Scions felt strange to me.
He really did feel like he got a disproportionate amount of it when there were other Scions I think should've been fleshed out more instead ( like Y'shtola ).

And his fanboy:ism just felt overbearing I wanted my character to just tell him to stop and cool it down a little but instead my character always acted like he was my favorite friend or something.
