Is the Whedon writing actually soulful?

LOL there was nothing "soul" about its writing. It's always been the series worst aspect.

They managed to create a good number of memorable characters prior to BL3, which carried the setting. But BL3 showed that Anthony Burch wasn't THAT bad and you can, if fact, find someone even worse.

If the game's more tonally inline with the first it might actually be kind of decent. I'm not buying anything with Randy's name on it regardless though.

There was nothing soulful about Borderlands "writing" after the irony overdose in 2 and beyond.
It was the retarded band kid that knew he was annoying faggot and not some sincere autist in writing form.

Borderlands needs some funny and annoying characters, they just have to be in limited doses and you get to kill most of them. The biggest problem with Borderlands 3 was a lot of the annoying characters were your allies and the game treated them like lovable buddies not infuriating faggots.

The entire villain schtick was trash though. The characters actually had and interesting backstory but were portrayed as the worst kind of zoomer-talking twitch streamer piece of shit. It was too memey and forced.

The worst thing that BL3 did was make people think that thew writing in BL2 wasn't that bad in comparison. Just because the VA for handsome jack went off script, doesn't mean that everything else wasn't gay and retarded.

Borderlands worked best in 1, when it was somewhat grim and desolate, the juxtaposition of the humor contrasted well with the cannibal psychos screaming about wearing your skin, and i liked how the background had these massive intergalactic soulless corporations hinting at a really dystopian setting. But no, everyone in the galaxy is a snarky post-ironic quipster, except if you're a bad guy, then you're irredeemably evil and self aware of that fact. 2 was a mistake.

The writing is the one thing that's been criticized since 2 and upwards. 2 got a pass but people said it was bordering annoying. Everything past thing upped it for the worst for some reason .

Let's talk about NOGs. Did you like the quest where you catch NOGs for gladiator fights? Did you complete the challange "NOG gonna work here"? Did you replay the game where you'll fight violent NOGs?

For a company as virtue signalling as gearbox, how did this slip by?
