So...what? are we suppose to have lead characters who have no way to affect the outcome of the story.

The PLANET! is...EXPLODING! The E-N-T-I-R-E PLANET is going to DIE. It didnt even need to be thrall. someone was going to be forced into that position. Thrall was just the most sensible person for that role since he is possibly the most powerful shaman on the planet and the person with the widest variety in experience. THe reason he was able to think of ideas that others could not.

Its just like the definition of a fake mary sue. its Someone that seems like a Mary Sue until you realize that everything about them fits perfect.

All it is , is people disliking having a character they cynically view as "The evil selfish company who makes this game"'s pet character becoming crucial to the the story hes been a part of for years. Just a buncha hipster knee-jerk reaction to your classes "Chosen Hero" trope.
