Elijah's morality wanking is annoying, and one fight where he does something neat and loses isn't gonna change anything.
He'd have to do some growing as a character for me to like him.
i don't trust him at all plus he literally is working with hero even after they let thousands die and one of their agents kills people and their poster boy is literally a mass murder depending on your playthrough and works with the fucking mafia and someone who literality loves killing so yeah no if he's willing to work with those people then no his morality stuff is just bullshit

I mean, Elijah don't really has anything going on for him, all jokes aside.

Malik already fill the 'Good Guy' role within HERO far better, not to mention how he is more powerful, has a more interesting design and seem far better as a character with his inner turmoil and apparent trauma. Hell even Clark is more pleasant than Elijah, and he is overall a nice guy as well.

I like him.
Malik is very different, he knows of the dark side of HERO, dislikes and rejects it, opposes it often, but still is more realistic and open to the fact that some of it is necessary for the greater good.

Elijah on the other hand is hopelessly idealistic, he is naive in a way Malik and even Clark are not, almost childish, he takes their name in the most literal way possible, heroes, as shown in his fight against Eisheth, he did not want to compromise, he wanted to save everyone even if it was hopeless, and in the end in order to achieve the outcome with the least casualties he chose to abandon his pride and call Bernhardt.

He is ''good'', in a kind of pure, uncomprimising way.

I know it's dumb in the grand scheme of things, but I genuinely like having his type of character in a story as dark as this, even if it is only to see them get beaten black and blue by reality, it's a nice contrast, they make the universe seem more diverse.

I wholeheartedly agree!

And to add to this, even if it would equal a bad outcome if someone like Elijah and his ideals would be leading hero at this point in time because of his naivety and idealism, its still good to have these kind of hopelessly idealistic (i love that wording lol) people among a group.

They probably shouldnt be in charge of the direction but its good when they are able to at least somewhat influence it and offset the more morally questionable directions like that.

Basically: Its good to have a Elijah for every Xanthe in your group.
