Most people hate Joel? Since when? :O

Dude's a psychopath, but I do think I'm in the minority when saying I don't like him. I disassociated myself from his actions near the end that I was not in control of. Bit different to say Nathan Drake who is a homocidal maniac or Captain Walker who is actually insane (I made that bugger shoot himself).

I personally don't hate Joel despite all of the things he has done at the ending. It's all a matter of perspective. In plain sight he seems like a psychopath after doing all of that, but acting as the other side was clean slate innocent is not fair to him. He did what he thought was right, and there was no evidence that Ellie would've saved humanity. There were recordings lying around the hospital showing that they've failed making a cure with the other test subjects. Not denying he went all homicidal, but people are going at this very one-sided.
