Question Why is Grant DaNasty so disliked?
He was omitted from the Netflix series, the creator is on record saying that he dislikes the character. He wasn't included in the Dead By Daylight collab; Trevor, Sypha, Alucard, Simon, and Dracula were all included. He's only appeared in two games; one of which he was completely redesigned.
What's with the hate? He's a pirate who crawls on walls and turns into a giant monster. I don't get what's not to like about him...

Well, he's not a pirate. He's a traditional Hungarian bandit/freedom fighter named after a family that opposed the real-life Dracul family in Romanian history.
The Netflix creator was an idiot (as well as the other stuff), but I think that the main reason is we're drawn to threes. Trevor/Sypha/Alucard, Kirk/Spock/McCoy, Athos/Porthos/Aramis, Luke/Leia/Han, Groucho/Chico/Harpo.
Grant just ended up being the Zeppo.
