Why is Abby hated and Joel loved? – (Why Abby is a Bad Character) (SPOILERS)

Abby Anderson, the controversial character introduced in The Last of Us Part II, dramatically shifted the game's narrative focus away from fan-favorite duo Joel and Ellie. Her actions then sparked a huge backlash among players, generating intense hatred. On the other hand, despite being a polarizing figure, Abby's complex character arc allowed many players to see the world through her eyes, generating a level of sympathy. All in all, the character got some intense reactions!

Earlier this year, it was announced that Kaitlyn Dever has been cast to portray Abby in the upcoming season of the HBO adaptation. In a recent interview, co-star Isabela Merced offered insight into the challenges Dever faced as he prepared for this complex role.

With season 2 on the horizon, anticipation is sky high among fans. Although the release date is not yet known, Isabela Merced, who will play Dina, offered a tantalizing behind-the-scenes look during a candid chat on the Happy Sad Confused podcast.
