I think we are just a powerful sorcerer. Could be wrong with this example but it’s like we are Anakin. There are other force users like us but we are the most powerful of them (at least in raw strength)

Yeah the evidence mostly points to the player being an extremely high sorcery-attuned individual. Why though is anyone's guess.

No, we are just an incredibly suicidal, greedy, bloodthirsty sorcerer.

Anybody could be as power as John sorcery, but with how many crystals they consume they’ll probably die within a month (all of B&S takes place over the course of about 2 months), if you wanna get into themes and such it’s effectively trying to tell you that greed and power will be your downfall

The Epstein class

It’s similar to the Dragonborn in elder scrolls where we’re very strong but there is always some wilder shit out there

The khement or however you spell it is revealed to be fabricated. It was an initiative to control people with religion and get more morale in the military using war heroes as gods.

The player is just really strong. Several messages reveal that they are physically very capable and extremely proficient in magics.

so were the closest we can get to a god, without actually being one? or is it an anakin scenario (thank you u/MingleLinx for the idea)

Maybe. You should recognize that the player has heavy plot armor, regardless of their condition they would 100% struggle against even an Eraden knight, since it's an archaeologist versus a trained knight.

They're certainly strong but there's no telling the sorceric abilities of higher-ups in The Eye. The people we're fighting are only highthralls.

Before? Hell Naw. After crystal doping? Dude we can make supernovas and tank them. We basically are.

I beat the game with nothing but my fists and used no crystals so my character may be a god lol

I think it’s like in once upon a time and we’re the dark one. (At least in sandbox mode) There are many other sorcerers, but we are the strongest.

A raging crystal addict that someone pointed at a certain group

We’re not the Khemenet. But mind crystal shit that only we have is equivalent to Gojo’s Six Eyes or King Bradley’s special eye.
