See that's the thing. Talented writers would try to make a joke about what type of character you killed. TF2 did this amazingly well. The things that the characters say are related to their personality and the interactions they have with the other characters.

With Gearbox, their writing almost never connects with the characters or the world, it's just dumb bullshit that takes you out of the game and makes you think "Oh, I get that reference" or "Oh, he's being silly"

Also that artstyle's pretty hideous, with these character looking like they belong to three different games.

But they do do that, if you kill someone playing as your character, they acknowledge it, and if they kill someone related to them lore wise they also acknowledge it.

They were retarded in thinking they could go after Overwatch. This shit should've came out months ago, and then it might have had a few months of success before it faded into obscurity like it already has. I also personally wasn't crazy about the main game type, but that's opinions. Overwatch attempts to fill the void that TF2 dying left in thousands of people, Battleborne tries to fill the void that MNC dying left in hundreds.

RPGs infected shooter because people love a sense of progress. However the gaming industry is getting old, and they recognize their primary audience are now 20somethings and up who don't have time to play games like they used to. So now we have mobas infecting fps because you still get that sense of progression but over a much shorter period of time

Gearbox are a bunch of liars and criminals but 3D Realms were a bunch of incompetent idiots who sat on their asses for over a decade and had next to nothing to show for it.

And when they sold the Duke IP to Gearbox to essentially stay alive, they immediately turned around and said "NUH UH WE DIDN'T" over an IP dispute that went absolutely nowhere.

Hate Gearbox for the right reasons.

Class based shooters have existed for a long time now, but back then the classes weren't an ensemble of cartoony characters, they were shit like assault, medic, sniper and so on.

Personally, I kind of like class based shooters, especially if they have lots of classes with lots of variety.

>>336633439
You need to stay relatively close, because her basic attack is slow as fuck. Prediction with the pillars is key, set them behind retreating enemies so they don't see it until it's too late. And use nullify a lot, as more than just your oh shit button, giving it the push effect makes it great for getting behind enemies and pushing them into allies. Or blinding people and having them walk right into the fire trail as they try to chase you.

Good luck.

I just bought the game today and, holy fuck, does NOBODY know how to fucking play? Every team I'm on I usually go 12-5 on average, but everyone else is 2-15 and, there is always one guy, who goes 0-14. Do I just have bad luck or something? I can't get put on teams with capable people at all and I lose every match. I can't even have fun with how bad these people are. I even went 5-16 one match because the enemy team caught on and would gang up on me really quickly, then push all the retards back who couldn't even hit the enemy. I want to have fun with this game, but I just can't if I have to try to carry my who team. Are any of you guys having this problem or is it just me?

This. That was an epic of bungling. Hell, I even like memelands and think anyone bitching about Borderlands, of all things, not being brooding and serious enough is a top-tier fedora-twisting autist, but... how do you fuck up making some simple upgrades to a game engine? Oh, right, if you're so fucking cheap that you can't even task a proper devteam to it, so you try to cheat by porting HW1's engine into HW2's engine, and then not even fucking bothering to restore a lot of functionality and/or scripting (such as fighter formations and such.) I have literally seen fucking fan mod teams do better than that.

I don't understand how a company that produced a game with solid mechanics like memelands can turn around and fuck that up. I'd never trust them again, ever. It makes me think that memelands was an aberration, not par for the course.

>With Gearbox, their writing almost never connects with the characters or the world, it's just dumb bullshit that takes you out of the game and makes you think "Oh, I get that reference" or "Oh, he's being silly"

This bugs me too. Usually I'd say, who gives a fuck about the writing, it's a glorified team deathmatch game, shut the fuck up, etc. But we've got plenty of team deathmatch games around. Does this one really have a different take on mechanics or gameplay dynamics? Enough to really set it apart? Probably not.

Visual aesthetics are definitely part of what we play games for, it really does add something. Great gameplay can overpower poor aesthetics and usually does, but great gameplay *and* great aesthetics really make something shine. And when they're competing with the likes of Overwatch and TF2 and such... well, they've got to nail it, or it's just substandard to what's already out there.

And between the art and the "atmosphere I'm not really seeing it with this one, either.

>I feel so bad for Gearbox right now.
I don't.

>Randy Pitchford, the chief executive of Gearbox Software, has used a keynote speech at the Develop conference in Brighton to address the issue of vocal, highly critical gamers – with specific references to the controversy over the studio’s 2013 release Aliens: Colonial Marines.

>After performing a magic trick based on the Three Card Monte street scam, the industry veteran told attendees that, while many spectators would quietly appreciate any entertainment act, a small percentage would be critical and would seek to validate that by attempting to convert others.

>“If you’re making entertainment on a grand scale, if you’re reaching millions, there will be tens of thousands of people who absolutely hate us, and some percentage of those will take it upon themselves to let us known how they feel,” he said.

>“I read it in this way: we moved those people, we touched them – even the person who hates [your game] so much, you’ve affected them. That’s why we fight, we’re creating emotion and experience - and some people thrive on that type of feeling, some people are sadists.”

Nothing wrong with that, but you act like $60 is a lot even when it's basically become the industry standard. I know a lot of anons bought it from CDkeys or other 3rd party key sellers for ~$30.
It's not like you're buying a car or a house.

Also, one thing to note

While borderlands series was somewhat good, it was never famous for its balance

classes had serious differences in power in bl2

The pre sequel was a little better at class balance, but they did that by making all classes look like shit

>>336639516
It's a weekday, at least wait to see how it fares on weekends.

The problem is that if it isnt as crazy as BL2 in both length and size, its a flop. The games are too simple, the field geometry is always fucked, and worst of all:

I got the game at launch and am enjoying it. It's not the best game ever but it's a fun little distraction. Co-op missions are fun and PvP is decent. Will tide me over for a few months.

I got it on PS4 so I don't think I need to worry about it dying after a week because everybody else went back to sucking Valves dick playing Dota 2, CS:GO, and TF2. You all mention Evolve but there's still a decent number of players still playing on console.
