Understand every character’s perks and weaknesses
Part of figuring out which character best suits you is understanding everyone’s inherent strengths and weaknesses. Ellie’s kit is more geared towards stealth than Abby’s close-combat arsenal. Joel can’t dodge like other characters but is tankier than all these young ‘uns. A character might start out with your favorite gun, but each of them has something else worth considering built into their playstyle. So if you find yourself gravitating toward close-quarters fights, Abby might be the ideal pick for you. If you want to handle enemies at range, Tommy’s rifle may be more up your alley. Try everyone out at least a few times until you find out who best fits your tendencies.
