Couldn’t it be that -GASP- the character is supposed to be more powerful than Luke? Everyone’s treating this like they failed to portray a character on roughly ANH-era Luke’s level believably, but since when is that the cap on Force aptitude in this universe? Maybe Rey just does better than Luke because she is better than Luke.
The problem is it makes her unrelatable. I didn’t connect with her character at all. She was too perfect, didn’t have any flaws, didn’t dream of wanting more, or something that could maybe connect us to her personality. She was just… weird.
Also, she is totally a Mary Sue. Someone who defeats everyone in her way, never has to be rescued, doesn’t appear to have any flaws, and so on.
So in your words the only good character in the history of fiction in Bell from the Disney version of Beauty and the Beast and every character has to be a carbon copy of her or they are a Mary Sue.
Well in that case why don’t you just only watch Beauty and the Beast and stop trying to change Star Wars into something it is not?
Oh and she makes mistakes all the time and she wants her lost family, if that isn’t wanting more I don’t know what is.
