makes you wonder how they even got to this weird point until you remember the character is a black woman

You forgot her being black and a woman. To make her a "special snowflake".
Freak got gamergate-pavloved into being racist at the sight of a black woman character.
Black people: exist
Assholes: WHAT, DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL?

actually didn't even see anybody was explicitly mad about her being a black woman lol
Reminding people that Mary Sue is a sexist term that sexist assholes use to deter people from writing strong female characters
Male power fantasy character exists:
Female or NGC power fantasy character exists:
James Bond is a classic Mary Sue if you make him a woman
I once saw someone refer to some of the gods in Pathfinder as Mary Sue's
And it's like, instant psychic damage from the unseriousness
it's weird how it shifted to that from "obvious self insert". I guess people think any character who isn't like them is automatically a self insert
Repeated misuse of a term by insufferable idiots sadly distorts the vernacular
I have nothing to add except. Nuclear Throne is a good game but it felt hard to me back when I played it ages ago.

Oooh, they're mad because it's a female character with melanin. Of course that's what it was.
motherfucker looked at a cast with YV in it and said "actually someone else is the mary sue"
oh yeah well which of these weird and arbitrary criteria for being a mary sue does he check off
liberals owned 😎
Okay but she is the worst character in terms of gameplay. All of her upsides are actually negatives and she's the hardest character to unlock. Her b-skin is also hell to unlock. There is no reason to play her at all. She's a boring and mid character at best and a direct downgrade at worst.
