It's probably an acquired taste at this point. I definitely understand why it's cringy, but I was a big fan of the original and when you got to read everything in your own internal voice, the context was a bit cleaner. JRPGs generally put Japan's culture and tendencies first, so it can be alienating when you don't get to fill in some blanks yourself. Assuming you're western.
