I can't really get over what a selfish ass the protagonist is in that game

I think you mean selfless.

The moral struggle of SotC in a nutshell, wonderful game.

Guy risks life and limb taking down gigantic beasts the size of mountains and taking their spirits to bring a girl back from the dead. Yeah...lol so selfish. LOL Sometimes while playing the game I wonder "what woman is worth all this trouble?" Never before have I thought about that in a game. Never have I thought Mario shouldn't save Princess Peach or Link shouldn't save Zelda, but this game? Wow....that is love.

Or guy destroys ancient peaceful creatures against his own moral values to harvest their spirits because he doesn't want to live on without her. That is love too. A selfless act, corrupting himself, to save the girl. A selfish act destroying life because he can't live on without her.
