In most cases, unless there are very specific exceptions, the protagonists of games often possess unique abilities or belong to a special lineage.
This isnât limited to games; in comics, anime, movies, and other forms of storytelling, the protagonistâthe central figure of the narrativeâis usually portrayed as someone extraordinary, a natural focal point.
The same holds true for Demon Capital 2077.
The two protagonists at the center of the story have stat potentials that are far superior to any other character. Regardless of whether itâs combat strength, leadership, or anything else, through proper training, acquiring items, securing traits, and implanting augmentations, their stats skyrocket to a point that makes you question if theyâre even human.
Even when it comes to illegal implants or chemical enhancements that place a heavy burden on the body, these protagonists somehow experience only mild side effectsâlike a slight headache, nausea, or, at worst, a faint spatter of blood from a cough. Whatâs more, with treatment from a competent doctor or medical corporation, these side effects vanish, yet the benefits of the illegal enhancements remain intact. Itâs absurdly unfair.
Their advantages arenât limited to physical stats. From the outset, it seems their default NPC affinity settings are high. As long as the NPCs arenât from outright hostile factions, they tend to have a favorable impression of the protagonists. Over the course of the story, even enemies often end up joining the protagonists' faction.@@novelbin@@
This results in a growing power base around the protagonist, which, in turn, leads to further expansions of influence.
