as someone who legally changed their name to rhys BECAUSE of tftbl and bl3. uh, yeah, you Absolutely should continue being critical of how both the fandom and devs handle strongfork's character.
the woobifying especially gets to me. like!! dude, he's also a literal fucking war criminal. he did the eridian mining deal. he's a corporate asshat. we see he treats his employees poorly in ntftbl! he's Not a good person.
but also i feel like your favorite borderlands character should be more of a "who is your favorite war criminal" thing than constantly trying to justify that they're moral and right in everything. everyone in this series is awful. that's kinda the whole point.
EXACTLYYY I feel as though many people forget Rhys was like, genuinely not a very good person for Most of TFTBL. His intention was fully to kill Vasquez for what he did, and if He hadn't killed Henderson first, Rhys probably would've done it to become CEO. He was money hungry and Way too willing to cheat his way through the system if it meant he'd be at the top, so much so that he literally enlists AI Jack to help him further. And speaking of which, have we perhaps forgotten his biggest idol pre-betrayal was Handsome Jack too ? Or that he participated in eridium mining operations ? Or how willing he is to drop everything (Including his friends) like a Quokka Mother dropping its succulent baby to escape a predator ? I feel like all of these are such interesting attributes to explore but people almost never do which pisses me off.
I don't even mean to incite he's the ~worst~ guy in Borderlands (lmao imagine) but like you said, this is the War Crimes Georg videogame, nobody is exactly Good. Just because a character demonstrates evil or good attributes doesn't mean they're inherently only one thing, they've got more to them and you just have to look closer to see it. BIRD UP and love it's nuances or DIE in a STATE OF DENIAL !!!!!
I like Rhys, i do not like him post tales or in 90% of fandom spaces. I cant say hes much of my favorite anymore because of it.
A lot of people treat him as a catch all character which leads him to either be a blank slate or horribly out of character. I'm here for the horror of an ex boss being stuck in some employees head. Im here for the slightest twinge of idolization quickly falling apart. I want mental anguish. I can no longer get that in his current iterations, but it wouldve been nice to see something on the same level of it. I was kind of sad when i saw that Rhys wasn't... becoming the worse party in that dynamic after it was over. Or, continuing that cycle in a different way. I would have loved to see him become a violent force destroying whatever was left of Handsome Jack. ( Zer0 is doing that instead, if i recall correctly. ) ig you could say he idolizes Zer0 more now? But its... different. Theres not as much of a risk there, its unhealthy sure but i dont think it was enough. I would've loved to see him be a fun villain but from what i saw in new tales his motivations are so... sub surface. I could not finish that game and could not dissect him with the right care, he did not interest me from what i saw. it was a very blatant "i think the writer wanted to complain about an old boss they had". He sort of just turned into the concept of "the company." there that it didnt feel enough for me to stick around. ( i stopped playing for other reasons, to be honest ) It felt so dumbed down, like it was the writers trying to make it more obvious that he sucks by removing the rest of his character and thusly making him feel like hes a completely different character. if that makes sense.
I got a lot of thoughts abt him this is just scratching the surface in my brain atm. he should be more awful it would help.
or whatever his name is
thought about rhys for a breif moment the last couple days and the outcome has been something. putting my two (dubious, incorrect title) favorite men in the same room together right now so their stupid ai's can fight eachother to the death.
the shrimp would win to me.

Yeah . fuck. Awesome. whatever man
trying to even think about what Base Building would. look like? in borderlands? … i think it would be, a single questline, where you kill things to gather items, and then you press "e" over and over to build a pre-modeled house for some guy, whose toilet blew up his previous house in some kind of gross poop explosion. and the gag at the end is that, after you build the house, he goes in, and there's another gross poop explosion, and you can do this quest, as many times as you like. That's the base building
a little. oc content.
its insane to me that the introduction of a character to me has completely ruined my perception of my own characters
as an update i fixed him hes normal now and got shorter. ( by like 2 feet...)
look guys i can draw more than just 3/4 portraits
Splatooning your borderlands
No one asked no one wanted but I had to cus I would die if it didn’t ….. I’ll do Angel and Katagawa too maybe idek
if u judge a book by the cover... then u judge the look by the lover..
what the fuck everrr
Finally watched a certain movie and good lord that thing was awful.
Usually im fine with a story that takes its own route rather than building off of the original source material (alternative timelines and what not) but even in its own story it contridicted itself like crazy. And trying to think about it as a person that knows the game lore doesnt work either!!! Augh!!!!!!!
it's so funny that william always uses -trap as a suffix for whatever form he's in
You just gave me the funniest fucking idea
randy pitchford is really out here defensively replying to every random person on twitter who has something negative to say about the borderlands movie LMAOO
some of these people only have like 18 followers. dude is either looking for any and all negative comments or is stalking the "borderlands" search term on twitter and only getting negative results.
sorry to be complainy here but i hope lou13 shows up in another one of the games so i can enjoy him and his silly antics without having to go through ntftbl.
i tried my damn best to get through that game for him but the characters frustrate me too much. i am too tired. it is simply not worth it for me.
i found this frame while cleaning my room, so...
(i couldn't get my printer to do funny scan lines but i think it worked out great anyway)
oh my god its real
