I wish I could be a fly on the wall in the Borderlands series writing room. Like you've got most of the team writing a bombastic tale of mercenary hijinx chock full of quips and references, and then over in a dark corner there's like 3 Lore Guys™ writing a space epic to rival the scope and scale of Dune about obsession and power and the inevitability of entropy and how civilizations attempt to convey messages beyond their graves, and the consequences for misinterpreting them, and it feels like neither team even knows that the other one exists. It's wild. Like whoever is writing all the stuff with Nyriad and the Eridians has never heard the name Moxxi before. I love it.
