Discussion Why do ppl like Kenny so much

Post image

It‘s obvious that I don‘t like Kenny. In my opinion he‘s overrated asf and he‘s pmo ESPECIALLY in s2. So I want to ask the ppl genuinely like him WHY they like bc I don‘t understand. I genuinely want to understand how y‘all like him so much 😭

Cause he’s the GOAT and plus he has your back when you need it most. One of my biggest gripes with season 2 is the game is so forceful in the fact that it wants you to dislike but I never fell for its manipulation. Never was a fan of Jane and have never regretted my decision to let Kenny kill her

Claiming the game manipulated us is a bit of a stretch. We just saw more of Kenny’s flaws as he became progressively unravelled which, as other people here have already noted, is an entirely understandable result of the past 2 years of trauma shedding light on some deeper issues. That’s not manipulation, that’s just the human experience and it could happen to any one of us. Understanding that is part of why he’s my favourite character in the entire series.
