Sadly, the wrtiers only really saw him as an extension of Regina or a prop in her story. And yet, OutlawQueen fans still are hung up over Robin’s death almost two years later XD. Well can you blame them? I may not have liked OQ for some people it meant a lot. It was a brutal way to treat shippers and Sean himself. Swanfire fans are still not over Neal's death 4 years on. There are some characters whose deaths I am still not over.

I feel like only giving Robin some character in the episode he was dying was pretty, for a lack of a better word, shitty towards his fans.

I feel like it is less of "I can't believe they killed my favourite character" (though that is there) and more of "they killed off a character for pure shock value after 2 seasons of refusing to develop him"

Yeah, and it set up another retread with Regina threatening to return to the darkness again.
