I wish there would be more media in general that is more down to earth. Why does it always have to escalate into saving the world?
There’s so many great anime that just get ruined by saving the world arcs.
Same with TES games, I never finished an of the main stories because everything else was just so much more fun and immersive.

Love Tyranny, such an original story for a traditional game, very fun.

Keep in mind that in the first games you play as the spawn of a literal god, so that’s pretty on-brand.
You’re generally the spawn of or mantling a god in most elder scrolls games. In oblivion you get to mantle both sheogorath and the shezzarine pelenial whitestrake, though who’s to say if they’re not just two aspects of lorkhan.

My favorite weird RPG moment is when the grizzled veteran of several wars who you probably just saw murder a bunch of baddies easily in a cut-scene has just joined the party… and he’s level 1.
BG3 did a great job with this. Everyones backstory is pretty badass with all the stuff they’ve done but the argument is that the tadpole in your head is suppressing everything and making you weaker.
And when you get new people in your party they stay the same level as your other characters.

First cave boss: Beastman from farum azula. Endgame fodder: Beastman from farum azula.
Why is god Polish
Why not
Because then he wouldn’t be able to go to space
