>Borderlands 3 was a disaster and made everyone lose interest in the franchise
>Tiny Tina's Wonderlands came out
>A lot of people said it was better than BL3
>Barely any fricking content so it keeps losing players
>Devs make $10 DLCs that aren't even story DLCs, it adds a shitty boss and each DLC is 10 mins long or less
>Devs waste most their time making New Tales from the Borderlands
>Writing is as bad as BL3
Someone at 2K needs to fire Randy Pitchford. Imagine of the writing went back to BL1 levels, where it isn't cringe shit left and right.

I don't know how anyone can play these games after any of the characters speak for more than 2 seconds
Honestly the worst
dialogue I have ever heard in a video game
I had to turn off the sound in the Pre-Sequel. The gameplay in these games is fun in bursts, and the world is interesting, but after BL1, the dialogue and characters became truly insufferable.
I myself found the dialogue only unbearable in TPS
BL2 had a few 'screwball' characters they thought were hilarious and dedicated their worst humor to, Tannis, Zed, Claptrap, Nakayama or whatever his name was, etc. Their 'jokes' were always about pointing out the incredibly obvious sarcastically or in a verbose way. Inversely characters with simpler senses of humor were their strong suit, mostly Jack and Brick who focus on being the biggest fricking prick possible in the former and endearingly meatheaded in the latter.
Then you come to TPS and everyone is trying to be Tannis, and you go to BL3 and the people speaking to you the most are trying to be Handsome Jack but with none of the charm or bants.
I’ll give the series this though, they made a lolsorandumb character actually entertaining, Krieg's a healthy mix of amusing, creepy and sometimes sad even though his first appearance really was nothing but gibberish with low context
this is the one thing i can't stand about borderlands
EVERY game the characters talk more
1 and 2 are the only games where I can enjoy a replay because pre sequel and 3 just have so much shit dialogue that I don't care about and can't skip
a driend gifted me bl2 and i didn't make it past 15 mins That fricking robot pisses me off
>not playing with friend and muting audio
but wonderlands is fun
> everything thats wrong with the morning industry
>but its..its.. fun
buzzword
I prefer evenings anyway
>He doesn't know about the lunch time industry
I hate dlc.
gearbox has moronic management
also they need to get rid of whoever's in charge of the UI
I thought BL1 was already cringe as frick. The entire game is like that guy at parties who loves to talk, won't shut the frick up, thinks he is funny, but he isn't funny. I wish he shut the frick up, but doesn't.
I really don't know why the unwashed masses only realised it by the third game, but at least people now see it.
sometimes, you are that guy 🙁
If they just combined BL1's guns and gun levelling with BL2's skill trees, keep it on pandora and make pandora diverse again, boom best game ever.
Yes. Though 2 was peak series actually. Or rather Maya and Salvador were peak borderlands.
Fighting in 3 was great but you basically knew what to expect from the mission structure. Some of the levels were just too big for what you had to do in them but I liked certain parts, I won't lie.
Wonderlands just had really bad weapons.
I liked it because it didn't have stupid cars to travel empty worlds
1 was kino, 2 was peak, 3 had the worst story but best gunplay, refused to by troonyland
Man, 3 was boring as shit still.
I didn't even have the motivation to even do a playthrough with every character, something I've done several times on 1, 2 and once in presequel.
Memes aside, it was actually fricking soulless..
>game starring the worst written female in the series
passed on the game just because of that
It doesn't star Tina though, she's just the narrator for the main story
The game stars (You) fighting Bojack Horseman
>It doesn't star Tina though, she's just the narrator for the main story
that makes it worse
Tales from the borderlands was the best thing to come from this series, are they really fricking up the sequel?
Absolutely. It's literally BL3 writing.
Holy shit I'm only a minute in and this screams
>hello fellow zoomers
So much it hurts. Frick this franchise
>Absolutely. It's literally BL3 writing.
glad I didn't play the original Tales from Borderlands game
That one is actually good. Writing is more like a mix between 2 and the Pre Sequel but less cringy jokes and more serious stuff.
never played Pre Sequel due to 2 having crap gameplay and writing
the original had different writers
>le quirky writing
>vidya game references
>funkopop battles
>zoomer haircut, mutts, and a wheelchair lady
Not going to hate because I know there are people who love BL dearly and I can respect that. I only enjoyed the first game, every subsequent game and spin off has left a bad taste, a hollow feeling. Some of the worst first person shooters I have played in the AA/AAA arena.
>Imagine of the writing went back to BL1 levels, where it isn't cringe shit left and right.
play it again. its pretty fricking cringe worthy. not as bad as 2 and onwards but that doesnt mean its good.
Wonderlands is a neat concept with a terrible execution
I'm all for them not relying on the mercs from the first 2 games so hard still and telling an actually original story, but once you actually beat the game there's literally nothing to do, there's no New Game+ or any actual endgame content besides "Chaos Dungeons" or whatever they're called.
Well because of Wonderlands, expect no more original Vault Hunters because you're able to create your own.
And that's a good thing, I'm sick of hearing about Roland because Lilith won't fricking go away already
>Wonderlands is a neat concept with a terrible execution
You can say that about the entire Borderlands franchise.
borderlands games are bad borderlands games
The pre-sequel is the thing that destroyed everything, it was made by Australian women and it was fricking terrible.
I'll never buy another Gearbox game again.
Maybe Borderlands is just shit
So is the new game worth it? I lost all interest in the game when they went with yet another exclusive deal and an overpriced game on steam.
Its the best gameplay this series has ever seen. But also bad writing not as bad as 3 but nothing as inspired as jack or bl1
Yeah, I'm glad I don't care for the story the slightest. Good to hear that the gameplay is even better than in 3. I'll give it a shot during winter sale then.
DLC is a fricking scam.
Fricking hell, time to wait for a complete pack hyper discount then. I hate how they can't deliver. BL3's dlc was already lacklustre for the most part.
Which is sad because half the DLC for 3 was better than the main game.
No, 3 had story DLC. The DLC for Wonderlands is just one fricking boss fight and they charge $10 for this. Season Pass is $40.
>Roland dies in BL2, okay
>But Roland is featured in TPS
>And Roland is featured in Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep
>Lastly Roland is featured in Wonderlands
Should never have killed him off
Is it cracked yet?
Kinda looked different than the prev games so I wanna try it
Dropping the shitty driving sections was a step in the right direction but the biggest problem is that its a borderlands game with terrible unfunny borderlands writing.
Do you really play video games for the story?
Not really. By writing I meant the shitty rapidfire unfunny jokes. The shooting part of the game was pretty decent when I could tune out the dialogue.
>I'm the only one that actually likes driving in Borderlands
Am I crazy?
It’s okay, nice enough for nobody but critics to complain, but they sure are bouncy - you graze a corner full speed and you’re tumbling full speed but never flipped over, hit a wall full speed and you’re bounced in the air and turned around, etc. Frankyl I should be grateful that there’s no impact damage because that’d make the driving a lot harder
I'm still confused as to why the dlc campaigns didn't have any raid bosses or survival arenas/circles of slaughter.
Is Borderlands 3 Redux mod any good?
yeah
how in the FRICK is there still no crack for this game?
I got 3 for free and while I like the gunning and looting it really made me feel old and out of touch. I could not wait for the characters to stop fricking talking and let my map update with whatever you fricking need. The writing was so bad they made me root for that annoying kid to be killed off
BL2 Gaige is my wife.
why is borderlands writing so excessive?
good job. this is BL in a nutshell. sounds just like it
not enough chicks with robot companions.
>not even available to pirate because denuvo and no one wants to break it to play this game
Hope randy b***hfart enjoys it
BL2 was the best, the DLCs were the best
t. 156h in BL2
bl3 was meh
BL2 is garbage and only absolute zero iq idiots enjoy it.
t. played every game multiple times
any true borderlands fan will have multiple hours in each game and still hate it
t. multiple hours in bl2, 3, and wonderlands
Borderlands 3 dlc is how borderlands story should be. Frick the ebin plot noggery and other capetard bullshit, literally "we have shit to do here go do it"
I can't play 2 anymore because 3 & Wonderlands are way better. Or maybe they just have more frames on console, dunno.
