* The [[PlayerCharacter Warrior of Light]] in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'' is generally nothing more than either an errand boy or a strong fighter that the other characters use to defeat a threatening force while the main characters are the ones that drive the story forward with their politics and strategies. While this is mostly still the case in the expansion packs, the Warrior of Light does become more personally involved in the story and are asked for their opinions on situations and certain subjects.

** Many series newcomers who play of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'' may wonder why the game is titled after a princess who is barely in the story. While the ''Zelda'' series has wavered who the protagonist is, the crux of this installment's story is about [[spoiler:the Twilight Princess]], Midna, as she develops from someone who only wants to save the Twilight Realm, to someone who also wants to save her friends' realm with Hyrule. While a plot of saving children and a childhood friend of playable character, Link, starts off, they are also concluded quickly with little fanfare, Link is now joining the fight for Midna's sake.

* Downplayed in ''VideoGame/BrutalLegend'': The gameplay protagonist Eddie Riggs has his own struggles and character arc throughout the game, but the narration makes it clear that history will only ever remember him as a HypercompetentSidekick in the story of the RebelLeader Lars Halford ([[spoiler:despite the latter falling in combat half-way through the game]]).

* In ''VideoGame/AceCombat04ShatteredSkies'', the player controls the pilot Mobius One in every mission. The cutscenes in between missions, however, focus on the self-narrated story of a child orphaned by the war, who winds up befriending the game's main antagonist, Yellow 13. While the story is presented concurrently with the actions taken by the protagonist, it's revealed at the end to be [[spoiler:a letter written by the now grown-up kid to Mobius One, telling him about the man he shot down]].

* ''VideoGame/TheBeginnersGuide'': The in-universe player character is mostly a blank slate for the player to project themselves onto -- the real focus of the story is narrator Davey Wreden and his struggle to understand why his dear friend stopped making games.
