Wich fictional character is unfairly hated by the public ?
In my opinion, Abby from TLOU 2. During the first part of the game, she is portrayed as the bad girl, but when she become the playable character, you understand that she isn't:
-Her father and friends were unnecessarly killed.
-She became pariah from her clan when she saved a member of a rival clan.
-She have been harschly tortured.
-She spared Ellie despite having occasions to kill her for understandable reasons.
I don't get why many players didn't changed their minds at the second part of the game, it's so obvious that the real bad people are Ellie and Joël. Theres no problem about having sympathy for bad guys, but you must keep your critical mind.
And what infuriates me is that people even harassed the voice actress because of what her character did. Come on, guys !
You're viewing a single thread.
I agree with most of your points except:
- Abbys dad was not killed unnecessarily, it was well deserved for trying to sacrifice an unconcsious girl with the excuse of 'not conplicating things'
- There are no real bad guys in the world of TLOU (except for david) almost everyone you see is just another survivor whose needs opposes yours
-
Ellie's sacrifice was necessary to eradicate the disease that turned people into zombies. Moreover, the latter was very angry with Joel for having “saved” her from this fate.
-
Many people were dead because Ellie did not want to mourn the death of joel, so they were actually dead for nothing.
- Necessary or not, she was not asked for her consent by either party, even if we, as the player, know what she would have wanted (disregarding the issue of if a kid can even consent) the doctors didn't know, that's why they decided to keep her drugged up to avoid further complications
- Yes people die over virtually nothing in TLOU, that's the point! lest you forget Abby was literally the top wolf, you don't get that rank without killing and torturing a lot of people I'm not saying Joel and Ellie were the good guys, my point is there are no good/bad guys in this scenario The idea of the second game is the 'cycle of violence', it's very naive to solely blame Ellie for everything that happens in TLOU2
