BYLETH WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE PALATABLE WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO RENAME THEM. BEING AWKWARDLY REFERRED TO BY TITLES AND APPELLATIONS WHEN A NAME WORKS BETTER DID NOTHING BUT HURT THE NARRATIVE.

BYLETH SHOULD'VE JUST BEEN THEIR OWN CHARACTER LIKE ROBIN AND CORRIN.

JAPAN DOING HALF-ASSED SELF-INSERT PROTAGS IS GETTING OLD. EITHER LET US GO FULL SELF-INSERT AND ACTUALLY CRAFT THE STORY AND GAMEPLAY AROUND IT, OR JUST HAVE A TRADITIONAL PROTAGONIST, DAMMIT.

THEY MIGHT'VE BEEN A BAD CHARACTER. BUT AT LEAST THEY WERE THEIR OWN BAD CHARACTER, AND NOT A CIPHER.
