>main series borderlands games will never be as well written as tales from the borderlands

They even managed to make Handsome Jack into an interesting character rather than a meme machine.

Yes, it's fun and cheap on PS Store right now.

If you like Borderlands, yes.
If you like TellTale games, yes
If you like a good comedy with good writing, yes
>>
It's amazing just how much better the writing is in that series compared to the actual Borderlands mainline series.
>>
>>342687305
Yes, good in spite of the borderlands.
>>
>>342687305
If you're the type who can stomach the modern Telltale gameplay experience, absolutely. The writing and comedy are great and put the rest of the BL series to shame (not that that's a huge accomplishment though).

IV was so... shitty. It should have been a DLC like they intended to. The powers were cool and all, but not for a numbered entry.
>>
Shame that you can easily spot were Anthony Burch forced his shittiness on the game.
>>

Pls tell me who is Anthony Burch

IV was fine. It just kind of felt rehashed.
>>

It was a total shameless rehashed. Don't get me wrong, it was fun, but for fuck sakes this is a numbered entry bro.

Not that guy, but Origins is better than City and Knight, and that's even without Kevin Conroy. More people should give that game a chance honestly. It does a really good job of highlighting the detective part of Batman, as well as some lesser known villains.

That Deathstroke fight was so fucking cool.

>>342689327
It felt more like a "The adventures continue even though the story's over" kind of thing than cliffhanger sequel bait to me.
>>
>>342686874

Is the loot similar to borderlands?
Did they actually make a fun skill tree this time?

I thought every single Star Wars based game was shit and having Vader in there felt like a cheap cameo, but I was wrong. How's the PS3 version holding up? Is Unleashed 2 shitty like people say it is?
>>
>>342689778
Leaving a cliff hanger at the end of the game is the worst type of ending. No matter what the excuse is. They don't even show where they go at the end. They just teleport away.

Sequel when? Best fap in years.
>>
>>342688593
I like IV too but it is sort of shit. I also hate how they changed Shaundi. They made her into a shit character. But SR3 is still good. Wish the gang storylines were as good as 2 but it's still fun.

Unteralterbach, it's free and there's no way in hell it'd ever be on Steam.

I'm not sure. I believe it was just a bunch of anons from krautchan. I would give my left testicle for a fucking sequel though. I haven't laughed like that in years

REV2 is much better than the first game

Telltale should stick to comedies. It seems to be their strong spot.

Do I have to play the Borderlands games in order to understand this?

This is no place for a horse.
Death's VA was fucking top tier
>>
>>342691225

It was a good game and I had fun with it, but after one was just a huge letdown. We didn't wanna filler, we wanted the sequel to darksiders.
>>
>>342691508
The only good part of it is the mercenaries mode. The story is absolute shovelware tier garbage.
>>
>>342691664
Yeah I never really understood why they made the plot of Darksiders 2 what it was, it just seemed super inconsequential. Still hoping that Darksiders 3 will be finished, and does something with the story.
>>
>>342691709
The same could be said about REV1. Barry alone makes the game better.

They made it that way because it was easier
>>
>>342686874
While I did like the game, I still thought that the last part of the game could have been a bit more serious, especially after the Jack part. Instead we got a wacky Godzilla vs Mecha X fight. They could have made one of the main characters a traitor or let one of them die for the sake of drama, but nah lets have a XD meme feelgood story.
>>
>>342686874
It started out good but turned great when she lost the fucking fedora. Most satisfying plot twist ever.
>>
>>342691204
One of the only legitimately good "cinematic experience" games, and not to mention the best Ghostbusters movie
>>
>>342691635
You just have to know that Jack was just an opportunist with good intentions, but he was surrounded by tons of other people who thought they were the "good guys", which is the major arcing theme of the entire series. He was fucked over by the people he trusted the most, and started going axe-crazy the more powerful he became.
Except Jack was fucking mental and jaded from the beginning, which probably wasn't even his fault since his daughter had powers that only five other women in the entire universe have.

In essence, he's "The end justifies the means" types of antagonists.
>>
>>342692772
The thing I hated is it doesn't match up at all with the start of the game. Especially if the two protagonists don't hate each other.

Why was Rhys tracking Fiona (and how, for that matter?) at the start of the game, when both of them settled down?
>>
>>342690569
honestly this. picked it up on a whim and the combat was tons of fun. I was so looking forward to collecting all the upgrades after I beat the story
>>
>>342689669
The detective part was not better than fucking blues clues. All the reasoning was done by batman himself and you just has to search for blatant evidence. The only good thing about the game were deathstorkes and shivas fight but everything else was a borefest specially compared to City.
>>
>>342689965
TFU1 was one of my favorite games for a long time. Having said that TFU2 was utter shit, the only good thing were the graphics and the new dismemberment system... which doesnt didnt really help that much to make a 3 levels game more interesting.

If only Rick had come back.

And Weaver gave them her likeness rights so the main chick character would have been her instead of the nobody they replaced her with.
