whenever I read Troy Baker’s takes on Joel I wonder how often this sort of thing happens where an actor portrays a character really well, genuinely likes and is proud of the role (not just phoning it in and being really good at acting by default), but just doesn’t get them

It's a few things. The thing where he said that Joel admitting to having been on both sides of an ambush was the big insight that Joel was kind of a bastard was a big one

The part where he didn't disagree with Nolan North on "David and Joel are two sides of the same coin" is another BIG one

He phrased it REALLY badly, but I think what he might have been trying to get across is that David and his group of cannibals is kind of the ultimate result of Joel’s “survive by any means necessary” ideology. Idk though. He might have meant something else.

And he's not wrong... but he tries to be too clever about it. Like he's said (to paraphrase) "David isn't evil, he's just doing what he feels he needs to do to survive." No Troy, David is a paedophile rapist as well as a murderer cannibal, I think we can safely say he is evil.

Yeah I mean in story the cannibals explicitly state they’re going to have a “town meeting about David” that won’t end well for David, specifically because David is *not* just “doing what he needs to do to survive”

Well, the Fireflies at the end have a similar meeting about Joel, for a similar reason
