I agree. Its a credit to the writer that the MC is a swashbuckling, tomb-exploring, harem-making, society-building badass while ALSO being a relatable (optionally) nice guy. Another reason why the game is so good to play.You don't even need to rationalize. Zaton is just an Agent 007 type of character. He's strong, competent, unstoppable, manly and all women drool for him. Stop. It's a male power fantasy surrogate for escapism purpouse which is nothing bad. Plus the game story is well told, so he doesn't just come out like an annoying Gary Stou, and it's still a working and relatable character. I think his being (optionally) moral and a good husband and father (in a Zetan way) have a lot to do with it.
