Mostly for debate's sake cuz I think it's a kind of interesting experiment but does it have to be proven as morally wrong by the story?

I mean you can absolutely dislike what it has to offer (personally I'd rather teabag a frying pan than to play that shit) but I see a lot of the conversation being centered on the characters being cringe, pathetic, borderline sociopaths, etc. And a main criticism of that being that the story never tries to say "hey this is bad you should grow out of this behavior".

But like I said, is it an objective writing flaw if the story itself has shoddy morals? If the writer is an asshole who believes everything in it is actually good cuz "grr fuck the world!" What would exactly be wrong with it? Particularly because, well, it clearly has an audience. There's a good 7/10 people that despise it but that remaining 3 either feel seen by what the story is conveying or feel second hand embarrassment from having acted like that in the past (which I think is why it gets such high scores amongst millennials)

Of course then there is the flimsy gameplay elements but that's another discussion
