Glazing my own oc for a second cus I love him and I feel like no one gets that he's commentary on protestors and I actually like. Made him to be an actual NPC (when separated from his selfship alt storyline) that fits in perfectly to Borderlands 2
All my rambling is in the tags vvv
#Borderlands' approach to hippies is so iffy to me so I had to make one I truly liked#Borderlands' hippies have always been “peace and love... oH I TAKE IT BACK THATS UGLY KILL IT!”#like with that NPC in tps#(Mordecai is the only true like.. hippie done right I feel cus he holds a lot of good hippie values when it comes to wildlife)#(without being made to be one ofc)#but I feel like Borderlands really missed out on the commentary that peaceful protest will not fix the problems in the long run#peaceful protest and violent protest goes hand in hand and are both very important values to balance#borderlands kind of completely ignores the idea of peaceful approaches when it came to bl2 which was SUCH a waste#I know Pandorans are typically violent and that's the planets culture but when youre making a game protesting capitalism#you can't just leave out an entire group that historically has pushed against adversity like that#Max obviously is not entirely perfect with staying nonviolent (a few missions I have planned for him would be to have the VH destroy#Hyperion property and bomb eridium extractors and stuff)#but in a game built on violence he's peaceful but still LOUD and UNRELENTING#even when in the grand scheme of things he's barely even a fly buzzing in Jack's ear#does this ramble make sense? I've never been able to tell anyone about this part of his character before#max borderlands#borderlands#borderlands 2#borderlands oc
