Scott's novel had many advantages but also some disadvantages. Scott's novels often focus on the development of the plot and ignore the character description. The characters in his novels were often just tools for completing tasks, lacking personality and depth. Scott's novels were sometimes too pessimistic and full of criticism and repression of human nature. His novels often emphasize the dark side of human nature and ignore the positive factors in human nature. Scott's novel style is unique. Sometimes he pays too much attention to literary skills and neglects the value of the story itself. His novels sometimes pursued artistic perfection too much and neglected the human nature and emotions in real life.
