Will it be disappointing for the reader to not know who the main character is until the end?

What I’m trying to say is the first four chapters are about four different people by themselves, then they’re together the rest of the book and all die except one, but that one is very important and it’s supposed to be realized that he was the definite main one throughout the whole series. If that sounds confusing here’s a the simplified question: Is it “too much” for the reader to get attached to all four characters then just just follow one after the first book, especially if he wasn’t the most likable one?
