The most misunderstood, erroneous characters

There are a number of characters in video games that are hated. Often, these characters are designed to illustrate that reaction to one degree or another. But even if a character may have different properties, it does not mean that the visceral hatred they receive is necessarily justified.

Some characters experience significant growth that players refuse to admit, others are misunderstood and a few more are blamed for the sins in their games. These are characters that are certainly presented as different in one way or another, but who are largely rejected for some fairly bangs, or at least inconsistent reasons. Here is a bunch of them.

Grand Theft Auto 5: Trevor

Hating Trevor is itself disgust

So let's make one thing clear. Trevor is a bastard. There are no two ways with it. He is a violent, meaningless, chaotic man who always listens to the intrusive thoughts. He has no sense of decency and does not even have the twisted, the villain's code of honor. He's just a bastard. And he is you. He is how you play the Grand Theft Auto.

How many times after you just dropped someone down because you felt it? How many people have you driven off the road? How many people have you ripped out of cars? How many times did you run that person? Trevor was the most sensible inclusion ever added to a game.

This is a funny post, as Dan is, on the surface, an easy to-hate character. He likes to torment his opponent and have several taunts at his disposal. But while talking about the conversation, he can't go for a walk, as he is canonically, the weakest playable character. And surely there are players who hate Dan for these aspects of his personality. However, it is not the core criticism of Dan; In fact, the main reason for some players hate him is bound to his game.

The biggest question that people have with Dan is that he is a “joke character”, and that makes him a “waste of a character place.” If you believe in these things you live earlier. For starters, Dan has not been terrible since Alpha Games. Those released in the 90s. He was actually pretty good in street fighter 5, and he has enough sauce to get some Tournament games in Street Fighter 4.

As for the criticism that he is just a bad ryu, understands that Dan is not working as tatsu at all. And his fireball can look Like a projectile, but it's not actually a fireball. It's a printing tool. It is much more related to something that Hugos pats. Yes, he has a shoryuk. But half of the actors have a shoryuken-esque trait. You hate then because you misunderstand what you see, live earlier or lack joy in your life.

Each person has a character or two that stops being the role in the role. Ken Amada makes sense because he is an angry child, and these characters are always rough. Yosuke is horrible for Kanji, so again it tracks. But … Why Ryuji? The worst aspect of Ryuji is that he is quite delicious when it comes to his female friends. It is not good, and it would be a good reason to dislike his character, but also, the personal series is sometimes quite horrible when it comes to how it treats women in general.

As, remember, joker blacks his teacher to be his sexy maid. There is no option not to do it. I believe that when it comes to how the series as a whole treats non-heterose-eczual men, you have to deal with the fact that persona is often a touch problem. And once again it is not exclusive to Ryuji. The Yusuke and Ann stuff is also consistently terrible, although his intentions are pure.

So, all that is left is Ryuji's love for having other people's backs, to be a supportive friend and showing simple courage. He is a great character in a problematic game, but it does not make sense to put the person's sins at his feet!

The last of us part 2: abby

Abby is a mess, and so are you

Oh boy, I certainly love this conversation when it pops up. Look, for the first two -thirds of the game, Abby is either not around or, when you switch to her perspective, is unbearable. This lady is an absolute move. But she is a mess because Abby is another Joel. Not every good character needs to start the same. She is layer of annoyance, anger and sadness buried under a strong will to survive. Then she meets Lev and Yara, and, just like Joel, is drumming down for redemption.

But some of you are still too angry that your favorite character gets teated up to see these parallels. And when someone else takes up these things, you try to tell them that it actually makes it worse (for reasons). Then you take up that her muscles are too big. Then you pull out your fanfiction where Joel actually makes a super Row backflip before he can be struck by the club and then kills all WLF people with his sick Karate chops. Or maybe you just start stomping your feet …

I understand it, you are still rolling from the loss of a favorite character, but the truth is that despite your claims about the opposite, Abby is an expert written character. She is wrong, but that is what gives her so much room to grow. It was also what gave Joel so much space to grow. As a direct result, we get to see so much of what made Joel great recontextualized. It's good stuff, people!

The last of us part 1: Joel

No, Joel did not condemn humanity. You are stupid.

We've all heard it at this time. Joel Damned Humanity! He ruined humanity's only chance! He is the biggest monster living. And, clearly, Joel is one very Felman in the first last of us game. It is very clear. He is broken, beaten, bruises and emotionally he seems to have checked out. He only runs on a will to survive. This often makes him quite hostile; It makes him behave in ways that are barbaric, but he is a product of his environment. The world is a crackled mess.

How about the end now? Hell, the Druckman confirmed that they could have made a cure! Well, here is the thing, the game does not make it very clear, it actually goes out to paint the fireflies as desperate and incompetent. Hardly keeps on. As Barthes would say, the author is dead. If Druckman wanted it to be unequivocally, we could have written the game to make it unequivocal.

And that's all next to the point. Even if they get a cure, how do they distribute it? And what is it even good for? How many lives would you actually save? Any dozen per year? Zombies are no longer the problem; People are. The game does crystal clear. Hate Joel to be selfish if you want, I guess. But the idea of getting a vaccine at that time will magically fix a world that is demolished to pieces is halfway between laughing and stupid. Joel Doom Mankind. Mankind would be the same level of screw in some way.
