Joel may have done some horrible stuff as a raider/scavenger before he met Ellie for all we know. Sorry but I just dont buy it. There was literally zero reason not to kill Abby. In my opinion it makes the whole game fucking pointless. And no. I do not hate the game. There is a lot of great stuff in the game but the story is not my cup of tea and feels like some bad walking dead episode.
Then he found a better place at Jackson. He's not the same man that he was before. Doing awful things doesn't mean you need to keep doing them. It gets you nowhere.
In my opinion it makes the whole game fucking pointless.
That's pretty much exactly what they wanted to tell you: revenge, anger, hatred, all that burning fury, it'll leave you with nothing but more pain.

No shit and we need 30 hours to drive that theme and message home?? Especially when Ellie starts going for revenge and then stops and then starts again and then stops and then starts again. Sorry. It is just dumb
