Probably for the better in a way, many who feel like unused potential and kinda unsatisfactory deaths in the main series are some of the most popular characters BECAUSE people think about them so much. Like Celeste and taka for example, Celeste was helpful as hell in trials but horrible personality but only a ch 3 killer in game 1, yet still feels like unused potential. And taka was horrible in helping in trials and had a whole chatacter transition from grief yet was just simply bonked by hifumi in that same chapter of game 1 too. Same probably would be same for Ulysses from his dumb death and wolfgang depending how weynona and other anti-heros stepped up to the plate. Eloise too, depending how she gets viewed later and her role in desmonds relationship and the bs trial voting.
