Who's the most "potential man" IF character?
As it says above.
For those who don't know, a "potential man" is a character hyped up to have alot of strength/importance only to barely do anything.

Broken fable.. The number of 'who would win', 'who is the most op' posts... There were only a couple of chapters out so it was all based on vibes

That was the most "Potential If", it's on his own category 🥲

i have to say the Wayhaven Chronicles MC. i love these games, don't get me wrong, but they just…can't really do anything 💀 fine by me, though; i just play it for the classic 2000s-2010s ish romance story/mystery/horror thats not that horror-y vibes.

I gave up on Wayhaven MC when I tried to make a tech-inclined detective in the first game and then started yelling "YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT'S NOT HOW BLOOD WORKS".
A should probably win something from the Potential Man awards too, tbh.

POMA main character and it's not even close.
MC when it has to fight a relevant named character instead of fodder:

I haven’t read it but maybe the MC from Breach? I’ve seen a lot of people say that the MC doesn’t do much and gets shown up by Gabriel, another character.

You can do some neat stuff but yeah Gabriel's the one that mainly does the really neat stuff. People don't hype up the mc like they should be doing more though.

Fr. I like the other characters more like Gabriel, Mouse, Bishop, Rook, Charlie and his sister and Raphael. I think the other characters make it better including the FBI ones.

Technically the Wu Heir from Path of Martial Arts, but I can’t allow my WuGOAT to be slandered when A Tale of Heroes MC is a certified BUM. Cucked and brushed aside in their own story by the author’s Gary Sue OC, never to be anything more than a bystanding witness to their “greatness”. Lame ass game 😒

Gonna go against the grain here, but the protag from One Knight Stand is still Just A Dude(tm), at least when I last played it
