I'm terrible at finishing stories. Sue me.

Hmm... Interesting, intnterested I am.

But you really need to work on flow.

Okay, so when you'er trying to express a character's thoughts via direct context (first person) try to put them in italics.

It helps.

If the entire thing is in first person, shouldn't it be assumed?

I hated writing the prologue. I struggle with Celestia's perspective on life in all fiction I write with her in it. Is she condescending? Is she sympathetic? As she as clueless as Luna and just hides it well? I have like 5 different Celestia headcanons in there. ^.^

The pacing will get better, promise. I'm usually great plotting and pacing in the beginning, but with a universe like Borderlands, the beginning is super slow. Once everything gets defined as a separate being from Equestria as well as the formula, it should get better when we get deeper. Like elbow deep. Like sniper barrel deep. Like shotgun deep in a zombie apocalypse. Like... yeah.

5647891 Yes, but I'm talking about the actual thoughts inside the character's head.

5647920 Oh, also, could you maybe include more discriptions of things the story mentions? Or like, show a picture or something.

It helps if you pretend that that your story is going to be a show or movie and the producers need your help with what stuff looks like. Point would be: what would you describe you story as?
Comprende? Got it? You understand?

5647920 This story has quite a bit of potential, if you can just pull this off I will greatly respect you as a writer. :pinkiesmile:

is twilight going to be the Roland of this story? (except without dying?)

I'm iffy about including the ECHO and the hud and the mroe game-y aspects ofborderlands, but its your story, your call.

What other aspects of borderlands do you intend to bring in, may i ask? monsters, plot/mission points, characters?

A huge inspiration to start this project was Fallout Equestria by kkat, (which I'm currently reading), she made a lot l game mechanics canon in her story, and my approach is a little bit on the nose but it is Borderlands we're talking about.

And I have plans to pretty much ponify the entirety of borderlands 2. I didn't play any of Borderlands 1. Just 2 and 1.5.

And Twilight will not be the Roland of this story. What species in Borderlands is incredibly rare like Alicorns?

5648873 hmmm no idea maybe eridians cause they're pretty much COMLETELY unseen and behind all the backstory elements, but I wouldn't call twilight that.

and I meant that, like roland, twilight is gonna be a supporting character who also as a protagonsit sorta. I wans's aying she's exactly like roland, just she'd have a general similar role. also I'm likely wrong and just babbling.

My point is: NEVER tell your parents.

I like how you potrayed jack its well done and for the name have a pizza

Aw-fucking-yeah!!! :rainbowdetermined2:
BL for the win! :pinkiecrazy:

hmmm I seem to be missing some things? what the heck happened? o3o

All I know is: we have our handsome jack expy, and he has a silly name

Nothing. Audio recordings are snippets of the backstory of Cannerlands.
