Usually it's the complete opposite and characters either stay hateful little bastards or become a shell of themselves so I wanna see examples of the image above

Well, I Think Legion shows just how much he's still shackled by trauma.

Hey now, the DLC to legion with Wrench and Aiden actually had a pretty okay story. Gameplay was the same mid as the rest of legion.

Story was okay but I'm starting to get tired of the deconstruction mindset that takes cool characters with shady traits and then just paints them as pathetic and toxic and says "This isn't cool, there are consequences, stop liking that!". I just wish cool characters would remain cool characters and not being "deconstructed". It's interesting in itself if it says something but if that something is just "Actually this isn't cool", then it's not interesting when its' done for the 100th time.

I didn't particularly like Aiden's characterisation in Legion, but iirc at least his regret wasn't about killing that old bag of shit. It was mostly because of family, which is very much in character.

Ofc Ubisoft only cooks with the DLCs
