I doubt he planned to kill the player. He was planning to wait at the finish line to beat us to it. Then he realizes who the final boss is, becomes coinvinced he can't beat it, and reasons that since it is impossible for him it must also be impossible for everyone else. Then he tries to kill us because he is afraid we will prove that it isn't actually impossible. That's my read on it, anyway.

Yeah, correct guess. In the game you kill the leader of the dominant religion (based on martyrdom and sacrifice) after they have refused to take action against the corruption in their own ranks, and allowed atrocities to be committed in the name of religion. Turns out (spoilers) that the head of the religion is also corrupt. Not really subtle, is it?

"Unbreakable", the Warforged. A warforged made for manual labour, but who wants to be a hero that protects people. Not very good at it, but he's trying, and thankfully he is hardy enough to fall down a few times and still keep going. Basically the robot from Real Steel.

"In the room ahead is a spider artifact. Take it! We will need it to reach the Santieri Crystal." Also "There is but one gift I can offer that is equal in value to an Elder Scroll and my daughter: I offer you my blood. Take it and you will walk as a lion among sheep, men will tremble at your approach, and you will never fear death again."

I think you are taking that post the wrong way. For context every character in Star Rail falls into 3 (iirc) categories: short, medium, or tall, and every character within a category has the exact same body type, just with different accessories and textures. What that post is saying is that this is a character is in a category (medium/maiden) that does not have the exact same body as other characters in the same category, which might mean that in the future the characters will have more diverse models/body types.

That's not to say that some people don't get unduly angry over how their characters look, but that's not what is happening here.
