In the end narcissism hurts the creator the most, not the audience.

Love interests (aside from narrator and the servant (or narrator/servant)) call Jane a genius but between her repeated freakouts over cushions or wainscoting (very much in 'lolsorandom' style of humour that was popular once) she does bare minimum of thinking. She can't be serious or introspective for five seconds without looping back to a gag that was already made and repeated. Because the key to a good joke is repeating it until you are sick of it, of course.
If Jane is unique in her representation - not getting into the quality of that representation - how do you explain Izel's monologue about bushes? Every love interest acts and speaks the same as her. Are they neurodivergent too?
The narrator talks down to the player and breaks the 4th wall all the time. Is the narrator neurodivergent too? Or do the writers think its funny and zany that way?
Because it isn't that serious. The characters just go through one scene where they speak nonsense to another, with no respite. So, it's even more baffling to see their statement on how highly they think of the MC and how serious her situation is... when that's not the case in the demo. It's a joke that she might die and nobody takes it seriously, not the characters, not the narrator.
Well, humour is subjective. This game was pure torture to get through. The art is very good but the writers could use some introspection.
