I am referring more on the MC's dialogue and comments but not his actual personality. He still is an ass, a character full of hate, and revenge. However, the frequency of his comments referring to explicitly to memes and other crack jokes have increased. Starting from v4.0 i think? Almost every other line of his dialogue are cracked jokes/humour, it's all over the place now.
And because of it, it became a mess, I mean a reference here and there is good, but if you fill a whole plot/story of those "references", then it becomes a cringefest, not to mention it must be one of the reason why the dev is taking slower than it is already. Also that supernatural thingy, I dont know if others find it great, but for me it made the game a whole lot less serious for a revenge story, not to mention it became harder to place my shoes on MC's.
Now, this is just a subjective opinion of a random commenter on the internet.
