I've seen a few people criticize the game for having too much meta-commentary and, in turn, not really saying much in its lack of a "proper message." But to me, that perfectly exemplifies the type of writer/character the Narrator is. His Te makes him want to be in control of all aspects of the writing process, even the way his story is finally perceived by his audience. I think that's why when Stanley goes through the office, the Narrator is quick to point out all of these unnecessary things (e.g., clicking every little thing in the office, the meeting lounge, the broom closet, etc.). I think that's his way of maintaining control over his creative vision: actively complaining about the things that stray too far from it to hopefully discourage any odd branching paths. This fascination with details also reminds me of Si. He's very aware of the smallest intricacies of his game and how well they mesh with expectations, allowing him to commit to his bit of snide cleverness. But even when things go "far off the beaten path," the Narrator is spontaneous enough to think up a new script--again, a means for him to maintain some semblance of control. I think this is Ne and Te working together. As he states in the Countdown Ending, if the player wants to destroy his story, he’s going to do it first… At his core, the Narrator wants to share a message of freedom that's very personal to him (Fi), but his other functions keep distracting him from that goal it seems. He becomes this snarky and rude (but also endearing and entertaining) individual who talks on and on about how his game "should" be, ironically making it so that he never gets to that point. But this persona starts to break down in moments of distress (e.g., the Skip Button Ending and Real Person Ending). That's when he reveals his unhealthy need for companionship and validation.
Biografi
The Narrator is a disembodied voice that gives directions to Stanley, narrating his every move in the process. The Narrator tends to mock Stanley when the other chooses not to follow his advice. He is also the "platonic ideal of divorce." Despite everything, he is secretly incredibly codependent.
