At least two major MMOs have the player being the "main" character, FF14 and WoW both treat the player character (and their friends) as the "hero" (and their party). I'm sure others do the same, but honestly I never get far enough into them to find out.
You'd almost certainly not be Aloy, but that doesn't mean you're not the main protagonist of the story in the game.
