Just finished TLOU2 and um... I need a drink. Wtf.

Did we need 20+ hours of game to get to this conclusion? In the 21st century? Abby had to experience being “the other”, nearly die, and saved by “others” to find her fucking empathy ffs. It’s a rehash of “now that I have a daughter I can finally understand sexism”.
A son* And I see him more as a little brother but that's not the point. I think it's a little more complex than that. I think she's in a phase of her life where she's trying to rebuild her life, after having been consumed by the idea of revenge for 4 years.

She's looking for a purpose and she listens to Owen's view of the world. It's a simple narrative. We've already seen that but it doesn't matter. I don't have a problem with Abby's narrative, it's Ellie's that I found problematic.

But I understand your opinion on the whole game and I'm not trying to object to it.

I was making a parallel with some men in our society discovering about sexism bc "they have a daughter" as they say. The idea that you need to be personally affected to understand a problem is not what empathy is about. Abby had to experience being "othered" to find her empathy.
