What I hate about heroes

Since it’s time for a small vacation of mine, I allowed myself to play videogames a little.
Actually, I haven’t played them at all for about two months. Almost forgot how it’s done xD.
I had a big choice of games to play (the ones that I didn’t have time to finish before) that included Mirror’s Edge (I regret buying it – a waste of money, didn’t like it at all), Drakensang (a good old-fashioned RPG, but with a bit slow story), The Lost Crown (stylized horror-quest) and The Last Remnant (J-RPG I played for an hour or so before I put it aside).
I felt an urge for some action, so I started The Last Remnant. I’m used to think that J-RPG is a balanced choice between action and RPG.
Urghhh… I couldn’t stand the behaviour of the main hero (Rush) of The Last Remnant. Someone told me that he’s ‘all that’s good in J-RPG characters’. Well, if you picture idiocy as ‘good’...
For me there’s nothing more irritating than ‘all good and fluffy’ character, and there’s nothing worse than ‘oh this world can’t be as bad as you say it is’ or ‘oh how I wish I could make a change… and I will!’ attitude. Also I think the image of ‘raised in just and pure climate’ hero which happens to contact ‘impure and unjust world’ has outlived itself, at least in a setting where he seems to never learn… Rush is behaving like a 10-years old child being 16 (OK, J-RPG usually features teens, let it be)...
Children must grow up someday, don’t you think? And grow up faster when they are forced to…
Anyhow, I couldn’t stand it, couldn’t hear ‘oh Irina!’ anymore, couldn’t watch cutscenes where a child is Rushing around making a mess ^^ ...
Did I become too old or something?
To conclude an experiment, I found my Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (someone mentioned it here not so long ago) and started it via pcsx2… Even with emulator’s lags it was like a balm for my nerves. A hero with some common sense! Hurray! xD
