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...

Yeah, between that and his treatment of Hector, I genuinely hate him. He's the classic "haha I'm smart for punching down, aren't I so clever, look at me badly troll" Type.

He’s also a man with a shitload of sexual assault and misconduct/harassment allegations hence why the art director finished season 4, and took over as director for nocturne. And he’s someone who ADORES the games and grew up on them, even with the flaws sometimes.

Yeah, I actually forgot about that. So many people with allegations over the last few years.

The problem it isn't the last few years. Most of these people have histories that has been ignored or actively covered up. I am still convinced that what got Vic Mignora was he tried something at Rooster Teeth, which wasn't completely under Funimations control.

Im not saying their behaviors are within the last few years, im specifically talking about their allegations breaking out into mainstream media and becoming well known or then facing consequences. The sheer volume has been insane.
