I won't say how because of spoilers but he's definitely evil.

I don’t think you understand what “evil” means. Saying Joel is one of the most evil game characters when there’s some that commit mass genocide just for fun is ridiculous

When did this become whataboutism?

Evil can take many forms and if you've played last of us then you know why in my opinion Joel is evil.

When we started comparing things. That’s what you have to do when answering questions like this

What Joel did is minuscule compared to a lot of other characters. You even mentioned the perfect example in Kefka so you’re aware of the difference in actions. I’m really not sure how you think the two are even close to each other

Because evil takes many forms.

Joel stopping a cure being synthesised is just as bad a kefka. Both Doomed the human race.

Joel stopped a potential cure from being made, and saved an innocent girl from being killed in the process. Kefka literally destroyed the world and kept a small population alive so that they could repopulate, just so he could do it all over again, for fun. The two aren’t in the same universe of evil

What's a cop out?

You've clearly taken a question about fictional characters way, way too seriously.

You clearly can’t admit when you’re wrong

Because they are both evil in different ways.

As I said you've taken this far too seriously and instead of saying "you know your right I have" your dying on this hill.

And one is infinitely more evenly than the other. I’ve already explained this multiple times

Really don’t get people who join an online discussion, then just say “you’re taking this way too seriously bro chill out bro” when someone disagrees with them. Such a weirdo thing to do

No I said you've taken it too seriously because that's escatly what you've done. Instead of simply admitting people can have different opinions you've gone on and on about "well Joel can't be evil because there's worse".

Riduclous.

I never said Joel can’t be evil. You’ve completely misunderstood my point

Yeah…if Joel is evil because of killing people while trying to survive…well that qualifies a vast number of video game characters that kill for less.

I mean, Lara Croft could just choose not to do the thrill seeking tomb raider thing, and live out her wealthy trust fund life, once she realized it involves killing countless mercenaries that get in the way. But no, she chooses that life.

Mario is evil. You know how many turtles he's stepped on? You know how many he's just knocked in a lava pit?
