I just cant buy Abby as this badass. And thats just some of my nitpicks of the season so far after how great season 1 was.

You're completely ignoring the context for the Jol situation. Joel got shot in the leg surrounded by a bunch of strangers. He's no Superman. The second he got shot, it was a wrap for him. Its no different than him getting fatally wounded in the first game/season. He would have died had Ellie no saved him and the difference here is that he diid not have her. And the only reason Joel wound up in that ambush was bc he was escaping a horde of infected. There was nothing about Abby that was threatening prior to that. The scenario presented was very plausible
Again anyone is vulnerable to a gun. They werent in combat. Jesse ran into that bullet and there wasnt much he could do to avoid that. Its actually more believable in the show than game bc Jesse and Tommy arent together when she takes them out.
And part of your argument is that Jesse is on of Jackson's toughest, well the same is true for Abby when it comes to the WLFs. She arguably has more combat training and experience than he. The WLF are a much larger organized militant group that has been at war and before that she was a Firefly. She's no slouch and in the game at least she becomes obsessed with taking on Joel which led
[Show spoiler]to 4-5 years of straight training fo that purpose

Was your wife familiar with the story? I can see things feeling choppy and confusing to non-gamers
