If only they had done something - ANYTHING! - with your character besides making them an ignored 5th wheel who had no real business to be there. Applied all of the old silent protagonist jokes to them. Make then motion as if to say something as a scene fades out then have the main characters referring to what "you" said later.
What would have been really great is to have you as a flirt who gets hit on every notable NPC in each village or town you go to. Have scenes play out differently depending on chosen sex, or go that one extra step and even let "you" go gay.
I actually thought the idea of not being the hero in the story was a great concept, the fact that the story didn't revolve around you and you were actually observing as the plot progressed. I think they did it quite well which made the story enjoyable instead me being the hero going "why the hell am I doing all this?"
sigh...I'm glad they're trying to push this series, but i rather see something more spectacular. The chances of WK3 making it overseas may eve be more slim.
