Borderlands 3 when. And when will it be better than Borderlands 2? I can't take anymore memes.
>>
>>333161320
Memes aren't even a problem anymore. It's the agenda shit they force down your throat.

Started playing pre sequel a bit ago and every character I've met so far has had to make it clear that they're a lesbian and not to mention the whole "MISOGYNISTIC" torgue line. I can only assume it'll get worse as I go.
>>
>>333161320
If they make another sequel it will most likely be Tumblrlands 3, where playable characters are dykes, blacks, faggots and cucks.
>>
>killing an enemy with a headshot in the first game makes it's head explode
>this is removed in 2

I don't understand why. It was satisfying to see a whole area full of headless bodies once I was done clearing an area.

I will never not be mad that 2 made Lilith a coal burner.

Lilith?

Also, what the fuck happened to Tanis? She became Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory.

>>
>>333161320
I would enjoy these types of games more if it didn't make me look down 99.8% of the time to pick things up.
this is why I dislike replaying bioshock and Wolfenstein new order or any game where it makes me pick up shit from the ground constantly, just make me a fucking magnet like in ratchet and clank it's more satisfying anyway.
I want to look at the world in front of me not on me feet, the fuck is the point of making you go through this? it's not fun, it's a nuisance and it should never ever be in video games unless it's items you don't encounter often or if your inventory is full.
also the map is fucking useless in these games and going back to the person that gave you a mission just to end it is fucking annoying, specially if they can already talk to you through a phone or whatever.

borderlands 2 w/ DLCs is a great fps with tons of content and very enjoyable either in solo or multiplayer

everytime its brought up here everyone talks about the memes and what not, which leads me to believe few people have actually played the game
sniper Zero especially is a blast to play once you figure out the little tricks

if you focus on the bad things obviously everything will be shit, but thats because you have aughtism

as far as modern fps go, its far better for the money than any other fps like metro, TNO, bioshit or other linear, 10 hours games that get ton of praise despite being literally average at best

does borderlands 1 have a player search? or is it like destiny where you need to squad up?

Memes aside, Jack was the only character in BL2 that went through an actual arc. He had presence, progression, and actually made the "story" bearable. Without him the game would be a mediocre FPS with shitty loot system and annoying mascot characters.

I actually enjoyed tales, it was less meme humor and I enjoyed the protagonists.
whoever wrote tales should be hired to write borderlands 3, hopefully less memes and pop culture shit.

i enjoy this universe, it has some interesting snipets of lore but Gearbox is too focused on memes to take advantage of this potentially great lore for Internet humor, scary movie tier, "it's from that one thing, I get it"

If I remember correctly, Borderlands 1 was rated 18+, while Memelands 2 was rated either 16+ or M or whatever the not 18+ rating is.

Strangely after the opening two areas there aren't many more token gays or blatant SJW shit.

Laney Springs and Athena do hook up after the game ends though to me they seem like a nice pair.

People always talk about BL2 like it ruined BL1, but the thing is, BL1 was a fucking shit game. The environments were bland, the characters were forgettable, there was no real story just "durr find the vault whoops it's an alien what a twist," no closure, no resolution, nothing. The DLC was all shit (hope you like driving your car across miles and miles of highway for hours on end). Let's not even mention the loot, which was boring and bland as fuck compared to the variety you get in BL2, or the fact that the higher difficulties were just "how much bullet sponge action can you handle before you quit."

BL2 is the better game by a million miles, people.

I had pretty good luck with drops in the pre sequel but if I got 3 greens I'd never use I'd pop them in the grinder and maybe get a good weapon instead of just selling them.

Borderlands is a singleplayer game, TF2 is multiplayer, and has at least gotten some new content added over the years to keep it mildly refreshing to go back to.
Borderlands is just literally shooting the same fucking enemy 1000 times and stopping every 3 steps to loot a bunch of same-y junkyards to complete an MMORPG-tier quest so you can get the Assnigger 3000, which has mildly better DPS but is still functionally the same as the Assnigger 2999.

You're really pushing for it now, though. How about instead of trying your hardest to prove why some anonymous asshole on the internet is a "hypocrite" (despite your entire analogy not working out, read above), you explain why Boredomlands is NOT banality embodied?

One tree should be grenades, one rocket launchers, and one for weapons with added explosive damage. Nova shields, Tediore weapons, and slams (if 3 keeps jetpacks) should all be improved for her by certain skills too.

Her ability should just be her launching a swarm of seeker missiles, which can be modified in various ways by your build.

Let the explosions never end.

That's actually a good question. Gearbox aren't really talking about it and from what I've heard the rest of the TPS DLC campaigns were cancelled due to poor sales, which is a pretty bad sign for the series.
Then again, there's Battleborn, but the only good looking thing about it so far is the one boss fight at the end of the singleplayer episode.

When I played, about the time of the first dlc, the only way to get most of the legendaries was either save scumming vendors or save scumming the grinder. Like almost nothing had a natural drop. Kinda sucked the fun out of it so I messed around with gibbed for a bit then shelved it before any of the real dlc hit and never bothered coming back. That season pass was a waste for me

Battleborn is literally their biggest project ever, they've spent more on it than BL1+2 combined - and I'd bet my left nut that they'd been expecting to keep BL fans tided over through the first half of 2015 with the other TPS dlc packs until 2k australia got shut down, hence why 3 still seems far off.

If it bombs you can expect that they'll either pump out BL3 immediately as a last ditch effort to stay afloat or go under.
>>
>>333168749
I hate her since 2. Her characterization to a battle axe is really jarring, and she's annoyingly standoffish. She never listens to anyone, and because of that the entire finale happens. When she actually said "better dead than a damsel" I couldn't roll my eyes any harder.

Jack might be a flawed inconsistent mess who soaks up all the fucking story and sidelines old, better characters but at least he has some entertainment value. Both suck now, but lil was ruined by a seperate writer rather than just being terrible from the start.

I agree completely.

It's fucking boring to fight an overpowered bullet sponge with 250k HP for 30 minutes in a game like borderlands and 2 had what, 6 of the fucking things?

I actually liked that the pre sequel just had you fight the final boss but he was a bit harder instead of that shit.

We tried. At least we gave more precipice for reasons to call Lilith out on her outstanding bitchiness.

Also replaying Borderlands 2 now, holy shit did I not realize the fucking inept character decisions and plot direction being made. I usually don't go all /v/ and critique a game so harshly but fuck this boring hack of a thing.


That's what it is; with it's endless DLC stockpiling, it's erasure of S&S with shit Bandit, its downplaying of character class actions, its "Oh you broke a ladder, time to go fight a small army to get around that" mentality. Ugh.

And it's a literal 'hack'. I have to gib guns in order to decently acquire gear even with these boosts to loot chance because I get improved orange chance, but even with 4 players (which is a RARE sight), it's shit, and half the 'legendaries' are shit.

I think they went into it thinking they were hot shit getting ahead of the curve on "Hero Shooters" but then got fucked by stuff like Overwatch and Paladin beating them to the punch, and after TPS and their other stuff underperformed they can't afford a big enough marketting blitz to compete.

They just didn't anticipate so many competitors targeting the same niche they would.
>>
>>333170094
But close enough only nets 25% damage and didn't even work with unlisted pellets from things like the CC or DPUH. You had to actually land direct shots to kill anything worthwhile. The only gun to avoid that issue was the fibber, and its the same level of boring lame shit as the shamfleet.

I've been playing BL2 the last couple days and oh god the base game had scaling where half the side missions were trivial as soon as you finish one of them.

With the fucking DLCs doing any of them makes the whole game pathetically easy and it doesn't even attempt to scale anything properly.

I was pretty happy that the pre sequel was too short to have that happen on more than a couple quests.
>>
>>333170515
Something based characters seem to be identified with in the Borderlands series is a sense of assured antagonistic nature. but they're not doing it without a calm, level-headed and maybe snarky or sarcastic demeanor.
Eg General Knoxx or Scarlett, Brick, even Jack in the Tales game.
It fits the universe so well.

Well, Gearbox can't fund it on their own. They'll need to make a deal with a Publisher which involves Gearbox making a game based on a hugely successful franchise with an enormous fanbase, so they can spend the development funds from that game on Borderlands 3 instead. Then dump that other game onto some budding (or disposable, as Gearbox sees it) development team.

You know, despite all the Presequel's faults, it had some fun skill trees.
The cowboy girl was crazy fun if you don't mind being op as shit.
Aurelia and her 'I never miss' stacking was a lot more engaging in terms of sniper play than Zer0 or Mordecai (I love both of them though)
Fragtrap and his 'you never know what you're going to get' playstyle was fun for goofing around.
Haven't played Athena ever, but from what I hear her melee is a lot of fun.

In the Pre-Sequel Atlus was already destroyed and Athena went looking for mercenary work.
Other than Claptrap she's the only person who expressed apprehension or remorse for the things Jack had the players do.
By the end of the game she was fed up with being a merc and working for Jack and decided to try living a more peaceful life or at least using merc work to support herself and one of the few people who were ever nice to her.

She wasn't fed up with being a merc. She was fed up with Jack. She was still adventuring and still took merc work.

Meanwhile all her previous characterization is thrown out the window by the end of pre-sequel so we can have another queer. What's extra amazing is before the end she repeatedly ignores and evades her advances, states she does not feel anything and ALL of this is retconned in the same fucking game.

It's the same stupid, inconsistent writing Burch and his cronies have been shitting out since 2. it's even worse than usual because before the switch they actually wrote to consistently with existing canon.

- Cut slag
- Massively improved your mobility
- Included freezing and laser weapons, both if which are great and really fun additions
- Atmosphere/Vacuum dichotomy led to some interesting scenarios with how it related to your mobility and burning
- Grinder was a very much necessary addition that gave you something to do with useless drops besides sell them
- Moonstones > Iridium, had more uses and were less grindy to obtain
- Each class was way more fun than anything in vanilla BL2
- Level design was way more interesting thanks to the added verticality

I just finished Claptastic DLC yesterday and oh my god it's so much better than a main Pre-sequel campaign. Was it developed by Gearbox itself?
Smaller and cleaner maps , so you know where you need to go and don't spend 5 min running around and great visuals with a dose of nostalgia.Even story was good, even though it was a little bittersweet . Outside of tedious boss fight where you know you're FUCKED when he's launching his rocket strike (and he's firing it every ten seconds) it was an amazing experience. I wish I could replay it without playing main game first.
Shame about 2k Australia through.It's such a big jump from a base game so I feel like cancelled 5 DLC could be amazing too.
