I actually don't hate Wuk Lamat, but now that I've had two months to think about her character, the #1 sin they committed with her was telling instead of showing. And when they did tell, they told an incomplete story.

They SHOWED us she's motion sick and bad with travel - good job there! - and then left it on the player to extrapolate out that that's the reason she hasn't left the city again since she was like 5 years old? Incomplete story.

They TOLD us that she nearly drowned in a cenote when she was three, and then assumed we could infer that that's why she's a bit touched in the head, scared of heights, and has problems with motion sickness. Incomplete story.

They TOLD us that she's good with people. That was her secret hidden strength. Yeah, uh, I guess compared to her brothers, she has a functional empathy chip, but they never showed us in any meaningful way her actually being a master negotiator or even being clever with words. She's just a lovable dumb orange cat with a big axe as far as anyone can tell. The handful of times it happened, it was very clearly Deus Ex Machina and the plot folded her way. Does she have a secret +2000 charisma stat that makes people bend to her will?
