Much of this dislike has been masked as “debate” over whether Abby’s buff physique could even be possible in the post-apocalypse, with some going so far as to mistakenly label her a trans woman.
But after spending an entire game as Joel and Ellie, some fans are having a hard time playing as someone so diametrically opposed to the people they consider to be heroes. Some fans are upset about The Last of Us Part 2’s story, which, without spoiling anything, asks players to reconsider the impact Joel and Ellie have had on those around them in the first game.Ībby, and by extension Laura Bailey, has been the most visible target of this hate, because the game asks you to step into her shoes. Why all the vitriol? There are a couple of reasons, albeit none that justify folks going overboard like this. It means more than I can say.❤️ /kGyULWPpNu- Laura Bailey July 3, 2020
