Yeah, the thing about YIIK's writing is that you were always supposed to find Alex's narration goddamn insufferable. But the game never really mad that fully clear. But as of I.V, fully unchanged Alex narration now is easily understood as Alex's flawed perspective, because you now start as a little girl in an abstract world, and those sections are written Completely Different. So when you meet Alex and he does his internet chud i hate my mom and everything revolves around me schtick, you instantly pick up on the fact its HIM being a piece of shit, not necessarily the writers.
