I hate the Burch-ification of the BL games as of late, but been hearing good things about the TTG's one. Might as well ask, what's the consensus? I don't want to waste money/time/effort on something as bad as... everything in Pre-Sequel.

Seriously the best "game" of 2015 and Telltale's finest work

>the writing is really good and you spend half your time laughing
>it's art direction and filmography are amazing

>>322088130
Burch wrote little to nothing in the last two chapters, you can tell by how good they are and how much his lines stand out as being "So progressive love this game!" out of no where.
>>

Safely assuming that it follows the same gameplay TTG have made since TWD?

>>322090209
Indeed. Hence "game". But now you play as two characters through the same story, so you double the consequences of your decisions
>>
>>322088130
I was left very unsatisfied. Lots of dumb plot points... very weak dialogue. Story was way too slap stick and the tone was really messed up throughout. Couldn't choose whether or not it wanted to be silly or serious. Characters were very 2-dimensional. They could have pushed scenes way further....etc....... choices don't matter....etc....

Give it a bash. Has some good moments and paced nicely. Has some replayablity (if you get to the climax, you'll understand why) and a good twist.
>>
>>322092431
your comment is very unnecessary as I am entitled to my opinion. Sorry I didn't love it as much as you did.
Getting back on track, it was a departure from Borderlands but not in a good way. Borderlands was weird and funny, this was muddled and pathetic. The last few chapters were really sad honestly.

It's an incredibly funny game. There's one moment in the final episode that's easily the funniest thing I've ever seen in a videogame. The entire thing is pretty solid too, and beneath all the jokes there's still a pretty neat story.

A few lines from King Cuck himself, but not enouigh to get in the way.

Telltale drones will defend this steaming pile of shit to death, and they will ever be proud of it and of not playing borderlands 1 or 2.
This game is utter shit, in the end.
It is literally a joke, just a typical telltale game retarded bullshit that shit-eaters like to chew.
The fact that some of it was made canon by Gearbox doesn't help, fuck them and this retarded shit.

It's the best thing Telltale has ever done, period. It's on-point. Not the game of the year but Telltale's best, most stylish effort by far and it really makes me wonder why they keep making super serious shit when this comedy-drama style is clearly something they're way better at.

Most characters are homosex for no reason other than muh diversity. It doesn't add any character to them. Game is also still filled with memes and outdated references.

Is there any series like borderlands without the shit writing?

>>322088130
I paid 10$ for it. It was alright. My problem with this game and the series in particular is the use of current "jokes" if you get what I'm saying. I don't find them funny and I don't think many will realize what they are when they try to play (or replay) this down the line.

I have to admit the writing can be amusing at times, but I'm not a fan of the world. Reference humour is used pretty often, and I don't like a world that is built on referencing other works. It feels cheap, especially when the writers try to be serious after the fact.

Also this "game", despite looking like shit, surprisingly runs like shit on every console I've tried it on. Especially the later episodes, where the application might as well be a PowerPoint slideshow set to 1 slide every second.

If you like dark humour, reference humour, and a rather forced romantic interest, you'll like this title. That is to say it's not awful, but it isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread, either.

Well, I do like Dark Humor and romance rarely ever looks natural in a video game.
I could do without reference "humor" though. It's not even humor, it's lazy writing/thinking. It's "hey, look! A familiar thing! Aren't we clever for pointing out this thing you recognize?"

only the autistics actually give a shit about legendaries, mostly good weapons can be acquired trough missions or machines. Legendaries have such a low drop rate that you are better off completely forgetting about them.

The only problem if find with BL loot system is that mostly weapons that do good damage(or at least a lot of them) have some retarded prefix that turn me off completely, stuff like consuming 3 or 4 ammo even tough it is a purple rarity item is utterly retarded, and mostly unique or legendaries weapons have gimmicks that turn them into completely useless weapons

Why even bother going after this type of loot just to end up disappointed?

did you even fucking read the pic or any comments in here, that shit is shoe horned as fuck and thrown in your face every single time you talk to that character in TPS.

It's literally her only redeeming quality and the only reason people will remember her is because she is a lesbo and extremely irritating.

Also, the fact she is in a relationship with athena looks more like a last minute decision to be more progressive since, during the entire playthrough, she doesn't seem to be interested in her once. Only when you go for a second playthrough she talks about it once or twice.

>>322096325
They have no reason to put their sexuality in the open without any context, since Borderlands is a first person shooting game.

It's not story, gameplay, or even arguably character-required for them to reveal their sexualities, unlike similar situations in Fallout and Grand Theft Auto, which have homosexuals who aren't shoehorned.

First episode is really, really good but it's mostly buildup and they don't have an opportunity to fuck anything up on that stage. First half is a bit slow for the same reason but it gets progressively better after the two protagonists meet up. Everything's neat.
Second is even better. They don't have to explain everything about everything anymore so they can concentrate on the fun parts and it really shows. Fiona's parts, however, were pretty boring - not bad, but boring.
Three is where it all takes a dive. It has probably the best intro in all of five episodes but nothing actually cool is going on until the last five minutes or so (Rhys trying to dodge August's bullet was hilarious though). Again, it's not really bad and there are some interesting lines... but nothing fucking happens. It's filler.
Four gets back on track. You're finally doing things and they get intense, you tell jokes and they are funny, you can beat up Yvette and be a general douchebag to everyone - just like an actual Hyperion executive you pretend to be. Oh, and finger guns. Fucking finger guns, it's amazing.
Five is a bit of a mixed bag. It starts really heavy but I felt that the whole Jack thing was kind of rushed. It didn't have the weight it was supposed to have, it left me thinking "hey, is this it? That's all?" Fiona taking out the Vault wasn't particularly captivating either. Oh, Sasha's dead. Oh no she isn't. August's dead - nope. Can't even remember what happened to Vallory. All in all, the first half didn't really pack a punch despite the fact that you were solving problems you were trying to solve for the last four episodes. It wasn't a satisfying conclusion.
Second half gets better. The approach to the boss fight was great, it's probably the second funnest QTE in the game. Sasha's "death" however was kind of tacked on. Ooh, she's dead again - nope she isn't, haha, tricked ya. Like, what's the purpose? Did she really have to not-die again?

Cont.

Epilogue's mostly there for its cliffhanger. You have an opportunity to describe your character's possible future but it obviously won't matter if they actually get to work on a sequel. Still, it's worth it to see the end.
All in all, I really liked the game but I can't deny it didn't have some weak spots here and there. Some of those spots are, of course, a matter of taste and preference but you get the idea.
4 > 2 > 1 > 5 > 3 for episodes,
3 = 2 > 4 > 1 > 5 for intros. I loved those intros.
>>
>>322098591
the intros were really fucking great.
>>
Pre-Sequel was great, though. Good gameplay additions, fun characters, fun story. Space Australians got boring after a while but I also thought some of the Australian gags were hilarious.
>>
>>322098530
It may have been a bit longer than it was supposed to be but it's still a fun sequence and it's not like they decided to just throw it in - there were signs in the first and fourth episodes.

>Scooter dying because meeeymeeeey xD

Scooter died because the voice actor behind him is going to die soon and his crippling illness means he can't do the same performance. The actor himself asked to have Scooter die.

Oh god, I'm picturing Burch's face when writing this. No, it's not a smug look of satisfaction, thinking he out-witted us all. It's him cry, sobbing while repeatedly punching himself in the face over and over again like a tard and screaming out the dialog.

>they ruined mr torgue

How? He's always been insecure, parroting phrases he's heard in order to get the girls to like him isn't out of character. Do people still, to this day, think that he was portrayed as an intelligent person in that scenario? The girls literally go "ugh that's really pathetic dude" and he gets all butthurt. It's a jab at male feminists.

About the only line Axton had that was "bisexual" in anyway was the whole "so you you like work out or?" when he's reviving somsone. I took it more of a means as, youi are a wimp for getting killed.

Anything else affection wise towards his turet felt more just love for a machine that wouldn't turn on him like his wife.

It was another character that was totally lolrandumxd but still kinda funny ruined by the retarded "let's give everyone an unique gender\sexual orientation because reasons" that anthony & friends shoehorned in.

His "do you work out" tone is closer to impressed/surprised rather than mocking.
>In a slightly-related story, Axton had some bi-curious dialog in the main game due to a slight hiccup in the writing process. Initially, I wrote a bunch of character-specific reviving dialog so that if you revived Sal while playing as Axton, he might say, “on your feet, soldier,” but if you revived Maya, he’d say, “woah – do you, uh, work out?” We didn’t end up actually getting the character-specific code implemented but the lines all stayed, so in the released game you can revive any male character and Axton still has a small chance to hit on him. After we mentioned this in an interview and some people on our forums expressed a bit of disappointment that he wasn’t intentionally bisexual, I put some more overt dialog in Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep to confirm that, actually, yes – dude is bisexual.

I don't see anything wrong with this. Literally no different than Firaxis keeping Ghandi's nuke score in future games.

>>322100758
>When all his backstory mentioned only his wife and nothing about going after guys.

With this little blub you quoted it very loud and clear says the added in the "bisexual stuff" afterwards in dlc cause fans wanted it.

See this is what we say shoehorning and pandering.

>Literally no different than Firaxis keeping Ghandi's nuke score in future games.
I didn't think that was a good idea either but different strokes, I guess.
>>
>>322101128
To accomplish the task of mentioning gay shit in games without shoehorning it, you need to basically be able to describe/advertise the game without mentioning that content. If as a media creator, you can't even do that. You may as well be handing pamphlets like the Uni kid activist shits do.

My main issue was how Fiona, Rhys, and Sasha didn't have a proper conversation together to hash out their issues in the last episode.

I played Rhys as kind of naive and power hungry from the start, though with a good heart, and while he got along great with the sisters for the most part they still didn't trust him by the end because of him accepting the Hyperion presidency.

And yet they still go from treating him like shit (Fiona) and deliberately ignoring his existence (Sasha) to acting like best pals by the last episode, despite not actually having a chance to talk and come to an understanding. Fuck, I even had to go out of my way to make sure there wasn't any definite romance growing between him and Sasha due to their differences - the mere fact I had the option to have Fiona push for it after their unresolved personal feud is just shitty writing.

I don't have any issue with the fact that the game is structured as such that no matter how you act you'll have roughly the same major story points every time you go through it, but the way the final episode is really obviously written with players who played Rhys as a flawless goody two shoes in mind annoys the piss out of me. The way the characters treated my Rhys was at odds with how he behaved in a really annoying manner.

The watch shit with Sasha was also fucking retarded
>>
>>322095925

>mfw remembering back to encountering this for the first time

The game was gifted to me so I really didn't have a choice but it now collects dust in my library, something that I wince at every occasional glance...

Oh well, at least I am not Anthony Burch.

Just did the scooter part.

Meant to post that three hours ago. Now on the last boss (I think)

Holy shit, the butthurt in half the thread is unreal. I'm starting to think people that actually hate Burch (who is a totalfag, by the way) are even MORE annoying than him or those who like his work.

Just Borderlands "story-rich" spin-off. This buzzword of a genre is really shit and it's not a game (the same way VN isn't a game)

Shouldn't have bought it just because it's borderland. If this is the best Telltale game then this Telltale thing is absolute shit.


>>322094559
that's what i think too, is that bad?
notice how /v/ can't take critic as usual since everyone is here to defend there opinion not to listen to one

Considering you can't type a proper sentence, it's unsurprising that you wouldn't be able to appreciate a story-based game.

Funny how the unlikeliest game that everyone ridiculed ended up as Telltale's best game so far. unlike GoT and Minecraft drivel which are clearly just cashing-in.

They always do that tho, they start something and during the middle they start something else at the same time, affecting the production quality of both games, see Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us.
>>322088130
I enjoyed it, even if it had low points and some shit that made me dislike a bit the game, playing as two characters seems retarded as you will answer your opinion about yourself basically, like solitaire, it would have been better if you just played as one or the other, not both, the soundtrack is amazing, every theme from every chapter is good, and Handsome Jack is still a big asshole, sadly it's one asshole that they push as trying to be someone friendly you can trust, which shows that they could have done something and they didn't choose to do it, play it, enjoy it once, and don't play it again.
