    They did right by improving the gunplay and smoother movement, but the story was an afterthought. Its honestly bizarre how the writing genuinely got worse between 2 and 3. Were Presequel/Tales of the Borderlands any good?

      Absolutely. The first Tales game has incredible writing, character development, and even the music was amazing. One of the reasons BL3 writing was panned was because it followed Tales and butchered the two main characters.

          I still think the hate for her is overturned. Before I played the game, I assumed that she did more moronic shit after Maya's death and was still not called out or punished for that. The problem I have with her now was that she barely got any development after Maya's death other than telling Lilith how Vault Hunters should run to the fire, which definitely wasn't what Maya taught her.

              Nah, Brick and Mordecai were better candidates for being the leader, yet they were regulated to fricking side characters for some godforsaken reason, like why? Mordecai literally took over as the leader in 2 after the Bunker mission. Were they still pissed at Lilith for trying to execute Athena?

                Tannis is far more sane in 3 than she was in any other game, so chalk that up as another character assassination 3 does to the characters. She does not seem like the same shizo with a PhD that killed a fat girl named shanay for her chair.
                But brick wouldn't do it because even in 2 he was the leader of a group of essentially just bandits, as they kill each other in 2 and brick laughs about it.
                Mordecai is a drunk.
                Lilith was also a shit head leader and not good, especially with her trying to force athena's death for really no reason.
                Ava is a dumb kid.
                Moxxi has potential.
                Ellie also has potential.
                Marcus is shady as shit and shows he plays on all side or any side that gets him the most money

              At least with Roland's death Jack is acknowledges you while gloating like a clown. Sure Zero could have sliced his head off immediately or it could have been a body double, but at least it "engaged" the player.

              Maya dying should have happened right when we entered the vault, sorting through shiny shit. Following up with us only gettiing to see the twins warp away as we come out of it with Ava pissing and shitting herself in sadness, then it woulda made at least some lick of sense.

        I truly do not understand how people have convinced themselves that 2's writing is anything less than unbearable. It was the first game I ever had to completely mute the dialogue after a few hours because Claptrap's every single line was so unfunny and cringey that I couldn't take it anymore, and finding out that the singular interesting character (Handsome Jack) was the only character with not-horrible lines didn't make the experience any better.

        BL2's writing was bad but it wasn't nauseatingly bad as BL3's main quest writing. I like BL3 more than most do but the main quest writing and all the characters in the main quest are indefensible.
        Lilith and her chosen one shit is insufferable.
        The fat scooter sister meme gets old 5 mins into the game and becomes insufferable.
        Hammerlock is more annoying than he was in 2.
        The villains are awful to listen to.
        Lorelei is without a dumb the dumbest most annoying voice you'll ever hear in Borderlands.
        BL3 is the only game where I tell newcomers to start the game with that mod for making everyone STFU in the main quest. It's THAT bad.

    It's clearly salvageable, a difficulty adjustment, smaller legend pool with reduced drop rate, change mayhem modifiers to diablo style mob specific modifiers, also add modifiers that are not "can only deal damage with X or Y weapons", change annointments to be a randomized pool of red text effects, preferably ones from the older games that are not found in base bl3, remove all the story and just have you be a merc shooting people for money. Add 2-3 extra characters, preferably not hideous like the poojeta.

    CoDgays love it though
    It was multiple points
    The equipment, skill trees, and how they interact with each other felt WAY weaker
    You have "no rest for the wicked" tone, that over 2 games turned into "dis gurl is on fiyaaaauhhhh", couldn't be more different
    Cringey eceleb and woke shit (it was subtle in 1, out there but not too much in 2, but full blown by 3)
    Maps were way too fricking big, and so much of my "play time" was just running and driving between points; large scope and world building is neat and all, but I would've like more going on in between all the void
    Lastly, a more subjective take, they didn't have a krieg-like character, and krieg himself was turned into a wuss

          It's annoying too because at launch it wasn't at all this bad. It felt sorta balanced drop wise and legendaries were pretty rare, only dropping from bosses it felt like. Grave ward was essentially the dedicated boss to farm though since almost all the drops in the game were world drops without dedicated sources. So there were issues, it wasn't perfect still.

    I already hated 2. I tried 3 anyway and it is ass. I still have not played Pre-sequel but it probably blows too.

      They're definitely not "shit" in terms of power, because all vault hunters in 3 blow everyone that came before them out of the water. But I will agree that their skills are lackluster compared to 2 and TPS. Which is surprising to see given all the new ways to customize action skills and such.
      A mod that ports everyone from TPS into 2 would be amazing.

        you can stomach poor writing, a shit story, and lame characters. but poorly designed classes are why 3 feels off.

    these Black folk thought people played borderlands for the humor instead of the gameplay. why would they believe people go through all characters or into true vault hunter mode to hear the same moronic jokes is beyond me.
