You guys need to stop with these ridiculous theories. Without Tabata, we wouldn't have got FF15. Very little of what we've seen of "Versus" initially remained in 15.

A lot about the game and how it's played has changed, not just one female character swapped with another. So. many. changes. Stop fixating on what you never had, and look forward to the game that's actually releasing soon.

Seriously, people raving about Stella literally only have these info to go by:

"Stella was a member of the wealthy Fleuret family and resided in the land of Tenebrae. She was shown meeting Noctis at an aristocratic meeting, and it was said the two would share a connection. After a near-death experience early in her life, similar to Noctis, Stella could see the light from the Kingdom of the Dead, which granted her special powers. Although the two did not wish to fight each other, they were forced to do battle as a result of unknown circumstances. Magazine articles drew similarities between her situation and that of Celes Chere from Final Fantasy VI.

There was no new information on Stella since the game was rebranded Final Fantasy XV. 

According to staff comments Stella would have been an integral part of the story of Final Fantasy Versus XIII and would have had a strong link to the Fabula Nova Crystallis mythos, though she ultimately had little screentime.[3] Stella would have first met Noctis at the signing ceremony between Lucis and Niflheim, where a great deal of their connection would have been revealed.[4]

[And here's the interesting part:]

She was shown to reluctantly fight Noctis in a trailer, but it has been said the first trailers were conceptual and some elements, like the opposition of Stella and Noctis in the streets Insomnia, were no longer in Final Fantasy Versus XIII as of 2011.[3] Her relationship with Noctis was to have been platonic rather than romantic.[5] Rescuing her from danger, and learning of her role in the greater scheme of things would have been the central narrative arc of Final Fantasy Versus XIII."

To me, this infatuation with a character they know so little about comes off as obssessive and misguided.

Wow. I am even more baffled now. That's all we know about Stella? Color me shocked. 

I never understood why people were so hyped for Versus when we never really knew enough about the game, I also don't understand why some fans hate Tabata so much (he is a genuinely good guy who was given a task, what a sin!). But the Stella obsession takes the cake, I didn't know that Stella was just a concept until now.
