Thinking about your tags Maggie and how what the devs said recalled my first impression of Wayne.
Specifically, Dustin's comment about "always watching, eyes hateful"
Before I connected the dots on Wayne being who Dustin was talking about, I fully bought into the idea of Wayne being this cool, collected, patient, and reliable "guy".
Our first moment of seeing him/it loose control of its emotions is when we sacrifice our years to the spirit.
As we progress through the story, we begin to see more and more of Wayne's worst personality traits. Especially when things don't go its way.
You could be forgiven for buying into the "guardian angel" shtick if you're doing a more isolated playthrough, but have Stella or Reese around? He will openly show his ass by attacking Stella and threatening Reese.
More than being callous or patient, Wayne gives off the vibe of a hateful, controlling, manipulator who is desperately trying to hide that he's about to snap.
When I bring this up, people usually point to Sybil's comment about Wayne not being two faced. I don't think Wayne is intentionally two faced, as much as its subconsciously trying to win us over and feels it knows best.
When we like someone, we tend to put our best qualities on display in hopes of impressing them but that doesn't mean we're being two faced in the way people associate with that phrase. We also tend to be more positive or pleasant around our crushes, regardless of any other traits. This is especially true if you're attention starved and don't have many/no connections.
I believe that no matter what it tells you, the Entity's worst traits are being a hateful, manipulative, jealous, judgemental, egotistical, and exceedingly lonely individual who feels entitled to some form of a relationship (platonic or romantic) with the MC.
From its perspective, its a being of immense and unfathomable power that was tricked, broken apart, and enslaved by lesser beings to do their bidding. Decades of isolation and being given hosts who didn't want it; why wouldn't it be hateful? Why wouldn't it feel like it was owed a relationship? Why wouldn't it think it always knows best and manipulate you to think it does to?
Why wouldn't it see your other relationships as a threat and be hateful towards them?
When you've been as alone as the Entity has, you get obsessive and possessive of whatever connection you have. Because its had everything stolen from it, the Entity worries that the mc is going to be "stolen" from it too.
It's first priority, perhaps even above the mc's well being, is NEVER going back to that state of being locked alone in a cage and used by others for their own benefit.
