Borderlands Summary Plus Bonus Interview
Borderlands summary plus bonus interview (free chapter)
Well, that's the end of the beleaguered Borderlands chapter.
If I were to rate myself, with a perfect score of 100, then I would give Borderlands 35 points, well, the extra 5 points are due to persistence.
When I first started writing Borderlands 2, I was actually very hesitant. This is a very good game, really good, especially the shaping of the world and the shaping of the characters are very prominent and in place. But it is also because of the outstanding personality of this game that I still have some expectations for the difficulty of this world.
Moreover, Xiao Jing likes this game very much, and also likes this world view. The world view of "Borderland" is actually similar to that of "Mad Max". It is the kind that completely vents the craziest and most primitive side of human nature. Everyone in it is irrational, even neurotic. of.
But also because of this, the characteristics of each character in "Borderland" are so distinctive, even the protagonist, who is the weakest character in the first-person shooter game, has passed a lot of lines and recordings. to perfect.
Therefore, Xiaojing still wrote.
In fact, the purpose of this world is also very clear, to kill Tiandao, to obtain the technology of Hyperion, and to pave the way for future plots. But in the process of writing, I encountered too many troubles.
Because I spread the whole plot too wide at the beginning, and wanted to write too many things, but in the end, I talked about things but never entered the main line. There are too many characters, and each character wants to be shaped, but in the end, none of these characters can achieve the effect I want.
Even more strictly speaking, there is not much need to describe the Battle of Blood Fortress, because this promotion of the main line is nothing more than grabbing Roland and handing it over to the handsome Jack, and showing off the muscles of the experimenters by the way. But in fact, it took nearly 20 chapters before and after this battle.
What's more deadly is that when I was struggling, this book was blocked, which really gave me a blow to the head. You must know that my book was at its peak at that time, and it had just been recommended on the mobile terminal with a very good result. If I continue this momentum, I am even confident that it will be a high-quality book.
Then I put forward the revision request, I spent a whole night to complete all revisions that day, but if I want to unblock it, I need to go through some procedures, so I still lost contact for a week.
This blow was very, very fatal, so that after returning, the subscription of this book was as low as one-fifth or even one-tenth of what it was before! At that time, Xiaojing was really seriously considering cutting off this book and starting the next one, and he started writing the outline.
But later, with the encouragement of the majority of book friends, I decided to stick to it. However, this also led to a very bad state of writing during that time, with only two updates per day.
In this matter, it can only be said that Xiao Jing is still too immature. The necessary driving and descriptions are really necessary, but they really can't go too far. I didn't grasp the speed well, so being banned is my immature punishment.
Fortunately, I gradually found the rhythm later on. I no longer expected the height of this book, but I still promised to give a happy ending, not anticlimactic, not hasty ending, and complete Tang Yu's story. finish. Well, the time to finish this book may be in the second half of next year.
Speaking of this chapter, there are two characters that I spent a lot of time portraying, the master and the handsome Jack.
Regarding handsome Jack, he is actually very complicated, and he is also the most outstanding villain in various games in recent years. He is not the kind of facial makeup boss, and even said that many things are anti-traditional, and this is what Xiao Jing admires the most. First of all, he is a small person, and the dialogue in the game is full of a nouveau riche look of success, but he also has persistence and emotion. Although it's all twisted.
His persistence lies in that he wants others not to treat him as a small person, and his emotion comes from his daughter Angel. But in order to become a big shot, he set up statues everywhere, forced others to call him handsome Jack, and forced to bring strict order to Pandora. He also loves his daughter, but tortured her as a key to recharge the secret, which all reflects the distortion and contradiction of this person.
In terms of space, my description of him is still relatively limited, but in general, I give 70 points to the description of this character. I wrote about his neuroticism, his madness, his low self-esteem and his longing, but I couldn't write about the ubiquitous black humor in his dialogue. What satisfies me the most is his ending, he died under the statue he set up for himself.
Then there is the master craftsman.
I have laid the groundwork for this person for a long time, and I have successfully shaped him into a powerful but extremely humble image of a strong man. This person is upright, pays attention to reputation, and cherishes his companions. In many ways, he is actually a positive person. The only problem is that he is on the opposite side of the protagonist.
Of course, it was somewhat disappointing to have laid so much ground before, but died in a single battle. However, in Xiao Jing's opinion, letting such a character return to his lair with failure, it is really worse than dying in battle. Of course, his death wasn't considered spectacular, it was almost aggrieved in an unfavorable environment. After all, he was indeed much stronger than Tang Yu.
Shi Jiang is the first of the three bosses I designed, small, medium and big, so there is no need to continue to entangle with him for too long, after all, the protagonist still needs to move on. In fact, everyone can guess the next context here, Amaterasu from Izumo, and Infinity Thor from the diamond group.
Well, I said a few more words about "Borderland", so let's do it, I hope I can do better in the future, make less mistakes like this, and bring you more exciting novels.
...
And then it's time for the show~~~~
First up is the bard, Nemo! Actor, book friend, nemo!
Xiaojing: Why do you want a character like a bard?
nemo: Because bards can drink!
Xiaojing: Huh? liquor?
nemo: I was drunk once because of love, and it was unforgettable, so I hope that the character Nemo can drink a little more. I heard that when drunk, he will not think too much, and there will be no pain.
Xiaojing: Is that the reason?
Nemo (struck the strings): I didn't come back as scheduled, which means parting formally.
Xiaojing: Uh... next...
...
Dark Templar, Ham-El! Actor, book friend, Huang Yinglong!
Xiaojing: How do you feel about playing a non-human character?
Huang Yinglong: Wonderful, wonderful. Understand human beings from different types and understand the shining points of human beings. After all, aliens have read the three-body problem.
Xiaojing: Huh? Have aliens read The Three-Body Problem?
Huang Yinglong: Ham-Eyer has read some works about the three-body problem and human beings.
Xiaojing: Well, it seems that this is an alien who likes human culture very much! So what do you want to say about Ham-Air?
Huang Yinglong: Dark Templar, a very powerful character. It is an honor to play this role, and I would also like to thank the author. Although the protoss is torn apart in the text. But every surviving protoss is not considered to be fighting alone, and every protoss warrior is associated with honor and tradition. No matter which team you are in, you will fight side by side with the recognized players. I want to believe that a hero like the protagonist will awaken and walk on the path of his own strength.
Xiaojing: Well, I look forward to the next performance!

So, this summary is over, and "Borderlands 2" is also over. Next, it's time to trouble Skynet! !
