lol Abby's combat is great. I hate her guts, but she's fucking terminator. Love her momentum abilities.
Neil also gave her the best setpieces and boss fights so I have no choice but to play as her. Maybe a new skin so I can play her sections as Joel.
I agree, her combat scenes and the weapons she gets are great...I just never really cared about her.
Ok, sure, he father was taken from her when she was very young and she's filled with bitterness and rage.
I get it.
But, so were most people in that world.
Expecting us to have some great awakening, an epiphany, about the futility of revenge etc...was never going to work because they are all victims of circumstances to a degree and Abby's story wasn't special or unique... except to her, obviously.
Besides, none of that payoff was worth brutally murdering Joel to achieve.
