He's right, you know
>Yes, Abby does some terrible things. But Ellie does much, much worse, shows far less mercy and causes much more collateral damage. I don’t think either are heroes, but I do not believe Abby deserves nearly the amount of hate that she’s getting as people play the game. No, she may not have the charisma of Ellie or Joel and may not be one of gaming’s all-time great characters, but she is the only thing saving this story from being a very dull, stock revenge tale, viewed entirely from Ellie’s side.
>Keep this in mind as you finish the game, or if you decide to play it again. Abby deserves more consideration than she’s being given.

I like how

has devolved further into
>If you kill him, you'll be WORST than him!
recently.

Simply by virtue of Ellie not killing Abby she is a better person than Abby. Because Ellie didn't get revenge. While Abby did.
So no. Abby's a bitch.
Evan Cox
Abby shows no remorse for anything though.
Henry James
Abby is unironically the best character in the game.
>Joel and Tommy are barely in it
>Ellie is distilled to being angry and wanting revenge
>Jesse is alright but he's barely in it and doesn't do jack shit
>Dina is the worst
>Lev is a literal tranny
>Yara doesn't do anything
>Abby's friends vary from tolerable but barely present and annoying
You literally cannot dispute this

Carter Baker
Abby spared Ellie twice
Once after she killed her husbando
Luis Cruz
Why is Forbes shilling this game so hard? Not even vydia outlets are going through this effort.
Sebastian Butler
Only plebs don't see how this ending is the highest degree of kino.
Brody Sanchez
>Joel and Tommy are barely in it
Because they are quickly dispatched. By Abby.
>Ellie is distilled to being angry and wanting revenge
Because of Abby.
>Jesse is alright but he's barely in it and doesn't do jack shit
And he is killed off. By Abby.
>Dina is the worst
No argument there.
>Lev is a literal tranny
No argument there.
>Yara doesn't do anything
Yep
>Abby's friends vary from tolerable but barely present and annoying
Yes.
Now what you missed. Abby is responable for every shitty thing to happen to everybody in the game. at least Ellie fucking winces and feels like shit for hearing about how she just killed a pregnant woman.
Abby finds out Dina's Preggo and relishes in it.
Abby's second only to Dina who didn't need to exist.

If you're so willing to reject every character from the original game, what did you even like about the original one in the first place? It's literally a character driven narrative. The actual game play was always mediocre. If you weren't getting attached to the characters, what the fuck were you doing?
Jason Gutierrez
Would Zig Forums like Abby if she looked like the original?
Blake Wilson
Abby was happy to attempt to kill a pregnant woman.
Ellie felt like shit when she did the same thing unintentionally
Abby was the cause of every problem both Ellie and Abby Faced.
Mason Collins
If he's talking about all of Abby's friends that Ellie killed then it's kinda bullshit, they all tried to kill her first. In pretty much every case it seemed like Ellie was going to let them live too, then they tried grabbing her knife/gun.
Austin Reyes
Easton Jackson
Only aestetically.
Adam Cook
>>Joel and Tommy are barely in it
>Because they are quickly dispatched. By Abby
Tommy's in the entire fucking game retard
Colton Bailey
who fucking cares? abby is a disgusting tranny.
Michael Myers
She's just written to be the villain.
It's okay to fuck up the villain's shit.
It's just that modern writers can't resist making villains overly sympathetic until it totally gets out of control. And this is the ultimate culmination of that sentimentality.
Evan Thompson
>If he's talking about all of Abby's friends that Ellie killed then it's kinda bullshit, they all tried to kill her first
How has this game attracted so many posters who haven't played it? Is it because it's an easy target?
Aiden Baker
You people are acting like my grandmother talking about soap operas. You're literally fucking faggots.
Landon Scott
>take a generic masculine revenge story with two PoVs
>make both leads women
>it works just as badly as you'd expect
Zachary Parker
If I kill him, he'd be dead.
Lucas Rogers
Don't these motherfuckers see how manipulative this game is? It's not clever to give one character a million pet the dog moments to show how swell she is when we literally saw her torture a man to death! It's as deep as fallout 3s karma mechanics! Just pay a random hobo 500 caps and suddenly your genociding ass is a messiah!
Oliver Carter
The man who killed her Dad and ruined the one chance humanity had at a cure?
Ryder Collins
Okay, I want all of you to imagine playing the fist game in reverse. Joel massacres the entire building full of the only “good” faction in the game to save a girl and then you play as this psycho. That’s Abby. She committed the crime before her character development so she was irredeemable from the start. And the Ellie LETS HER LIVE.
Asher Morales
Yep.
Ryder Gonzalez
How many times are you going to repost this fucking thread?
Eli Flores
Yeah but people actually like Ellie while Abby could be completely written out and only a few trannys would care.
Landon Jenkins
That doesn't make sense you idiot, Abby spared the pregnant woman. Ellie didn't.
It's about actions.
Anthony Allen
Fuck TLOU2
Gaming is dead

Nooo you alt right incel chuds! It's FORGIVENESS!!!!!!!!! Can't you tell they're polar opposites!?
