I say it was the casting director's fault, nobody wanted a jokey short Roland. Take polls or read forums on who fans want to see and try your hardest to fill the role close to what the fans want.
Nah you could've casted golden girls to a good script and director and it would've been a good film.
Fallout, the last of us? Stuck close to the games' source material and respected current and new fans.
Halo and borderlands both ignored current fans and diverted from the source material.
Could there be a correlation? Oh, no just covid
It was insane that the big reveal was that Lilith was a siren, a fact you learn during character selection in the first game! There was absolutely no thought given to fans at all.
That's like, who she was?! I think they forgot that the first game was pretty much a non-story anyway, and somehow made it worse
