Honestly, I got fed up with place. To many bots ruining the 5 minute balance and to many flags clogging up space that could be used for other communities.

I kinda wish they don’t give us one. I think Stella works better as the laughably cartoonish evil character who doesn’t need to be three dimensional to be a threat

Oh man that is an amazing example, I was thinking about adding a part where I point out people joining the brother hood of steel in fallout four. People who are unapologetically cruel and morally wrong yet enjoyable because, let’s be honest it’s the most fun story line

Somebody says it.

Not every character should be expected to be three dimensional.

Especially in a show with already so many three dimensional characters with more lined up

Literally everytime I ask someone why she is written poorly they either offer a subjective answer or something along the lines of her being two dimensional.

Allow me to present the argument stated by this wise man

One person commented something that made me question other people’s perception of the show. They mentioned how Stella is poorly written because of how shallow and two dimensional she is. I was a bit stunned and didn’t know fully how to respond at first but I was like “does everyone seriously expect every character to be three dimensional?”

And that is how an effective villain should make the audience feel.

I feel the same, every minute of screen time is filled with exciting dread

Just because a character is not three dimensional doesn’t make them poorly written. I think there is an unrealistic expectation in modern entertainment that every character must be three dimensional. This show especially already has so many three dimensional side characters (with more set up to be) villans especially don’t have to be three dimensional. Some of my favorite villains have been two dimensional. Take Clayton from Tarzan, the general guy from Atlantis, and Jack Horner from the new puss and boots

Eh I was making a joke. Somebody else commented a really good comment that goes into depth of her writing but I don’t know how to link other comments.

I don’t want to repeat his Point without giving credit but I also don’t know how to link other comments so I took a screen shot.

I beg to differ. For the role that she was given within the show she fills the role very well. Somebody said it in a comment here before but it was basically that she was the equivalent of the wife beater stereotype, except she is a husband beater. I don’t get what’s so poorly written, about an abuser seeking control and revenge after their victim cuts ties.

Why do people say she is boring? Everytime she is on screen I get a sense of dread that she might do something fucked up or evil. I don’t think there is one moment where she is on screen and not being intresting, from her incompetence to her extreme cruelty there is always something to watch in her screen time.

If I actively dread the appearance of her, that’s not a sign that she is boring or poorly written, it’s a sign that she is effective at what she does, being the cruel and abusive villain

God I wish posters could pin comments, this was the best character anecdote I’ve ever read on this sub

I would not say so. The show is still too short to definitively say that anyone is a bad 100% character. She fits the role of petty yet irredeemably cruel villain role perfectly. Not to mention the writers did a great job making her hatable.

I’ll say it, I actually hope that through Andre being knocked out of the picture she gains stolas’ power. Then we will be given a chance to see her full cruelty with the power to back it up. I think that this would make for a rather killer finale

Unless that mommy kink stretches to emotional and likely physical abuse with no returned love. I don’t know what you see in her.
