What Mr. YIIK doesn't seem to understand is that art is a form of communication.
If you want a piece of art to convey a specific message or resonate with people in a particular way it's on YOU to craft it to do as much. You can't just speak garbled nonsense and then get mad when people can't decipher it.
If the intent with Alex was for him to be annoying and unlikeable, then why get mad at people for finding him annoying and unlikeable?
If the intent was to make him annoying and a shit person but still someone the audience could root for then the game has utterly failed and it's not on the audience for not engaging with it properly.
There's been plenty of stories over the years both in video games and outside of them with protagonists who aren't good people, however they are, crucially, still likeable to the audience.
