One of my favorite RPGs actually addresses this whole mess by breaking the
fourth wall and acknowledging that there's another presence in the story,
pulling the strings and manipulating the protagonist. It never got a PC
port, although one was planned at some point.

Games which acknowledge the 4th wall:
Monkey Island 2
Duck Amuck

Panzer Dragoon Saga. You are the 'Divine Visitor' and in order to finish
the game, you have to 'press the button.' It sounds dumb when I describe
it, but in the context of the game it was a beautiful way to raise the
question of whether or not Edge was actually alive for his experience.

In Dungeon Master you were officially playing the spirit of the
assistant of the magician whose dark side was the main enemy in the
game. You were supposed to be offering guidance to the four characters
in the party.
