✅ I will now buy your game.

I'm only half joking.
 
after BL3 and Wonderlands i am not having any faith but at least that teaser kind of looks like it's got a more serious tone, that could mean nothing though.

if they return to world feel and "comedy" of the first game i'd jump back in, the franchise went from nihilist to Millenial/GenZ pretty quick.

Get rid of fucking Tiny Tina and all those shit characters. No more oh so random humor.
 
It was really hard to start a new character in 3, I could not stand the terrible writing.
I'm actually playing through pre now and am rather enjoying it. I find that the moon is space australia pretty funny.

Writing is pretty good in the pre-sequel, they also nailed the dialogue by having *actual* dialogue where the player character talks, a first in the series.
Doing the early motivational poster quest as Clap-trap is one of my favourites and there's some funny bantz.
 
Don't care about the story, bl3 is a total blast to play. I'm down for more. I thought it felt really good. Reminiscent of going from halo 3 to destiny in terms of feel. But I could see why some may have preferred how bl2 felt.

They thought they were going to be coming off incredible movie hype. Instead this drops like a led weight.
 
hardpass...
funny, i kind to like their first games, mixed feeling with second, lost faith with BPS, and left third...

I'm also hate Tiny tina face and consider her face and voice as horror ("+_+)
 
I keep wanting to try to get into Borderlands 3 but that first character in the underwear is such an unfunny and annoying piece of shit. Is he in the game a lot?

The first two were so incredible. I probably beat the first at least ten times.

He's only relevant in the beginning and a bit at the ends. He was easily the most unfunny character in the game imo. Not even the thc could help his lameness.
 
Just played Borderlands 2 and am currently playing 3. I definitely like the combat better in 3. Althought I think this game will not be any good, here is hoping it exceeds my low expectations. Always good to have a decent coop game to play.
 
Day onee boyyys..

I still remember the midnight launch of borderlands 2 at gamestop. I got to go to the front of the line cause my mom was with me.

Played B3 co op online with a bunch of random people and we had a blast.

Didn't finish Pre, didn't buy 3, and probably won't buy 4 either.

Unless they bring back Mordecai and Bloodwing for me to play as, in which case god bless Randy Pitchford my best friend.

But until then: no.
If you play on PC ill make a mod that lets you play as mordecai and bloodwing on b4.
 
Borderlands 4, huh?

Maybe this time, the game will have dialogue that isn't atrocious enough that it warrants people to make guides on how to remove it or mods that let players skip it entirely.
 
I enjoyed the gameplay of 3, but 2 is still the peak of the series for me and I'm not sure it can be topped now. I hope I'm wrong and I hope 4 can at least come close.

I must say though I really enjoyed the DLC for 3 with the wild west / Japanese hybrid setting.

Saw a few tweets about this, in the last few seconds of the trailer it flickers some garbled graphics and this is seen for one frame.
Yeah, that Jack innit? The facial scar he received in the Pre-sequel.

 
I cant get excited about anything Randy is attached to, because of how he acts. And im still mad about Colonial Marines
 
Likey day 1 for me.

While I hated bl3 story twins, the gun play of 3 was great.

Every modern action RPG has to be a dark souls clone or a open world survival, and that drives me nuts.

I miss the old action RPG loot games. I can hope for way less cringe this time. And that Epic pc exclusive as dumped

Don't play with my heart like that
 
Bought the pandora box a couple of weeks ago since it was 40e. Never played any borderlands games before or any looter shooter for that matter.
The writing definitely went downhill after 2 even though presequel is still fun.

Had a blast with 1/2/presequel/Tales of the Borderlands and im doing the 3rd as of now, which is still fun to play but so annoying and lame it's like a bunch of the worst theater kids ever where given free reign on the story, resulting in a hipster paradise where everyone thinks thy are super cool by being ironically super lame, when they are in fact simply unironically super lame.
Core gameplay mostly stayed the same with small upgrades here and there (thank god for the climbing mechanic) , and it's still great.

The characters are what drags 3 down for me, and it's in part due to the writing (they are unfunny and uncool :messenger_downcast_sweat: except maybe Fl4k), and in other part due to the simplified progression systems where you cannot really go wrong whatever skill you decide to upgrade in a normal playthrough.

Anyway im eager to see the new vault hunters and their respective gameplay, that's what make me buy the game, or not.

Your mom is a saint for bringing you to a midnight game launch, but please never ask her what she had to do to the gamestop employee for you to pass everyone up.
 
if it comes to game pass will give it a go, loved the original game so hoping its good but been let down a lot by gearbox games since then.
 
I really liked 3's gunplay. I always play lone wolf too. Some of the content was great like Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot. But other parts were very bland. I'm likely down for this regardless.
 
Did they learn anything from BL3, who knows :messenger_mr_smith_who_are_you_going_to_call:

I will say if the core gameplay hasnt changed, im out. I need more than just a bazillion different guns to shoot.
Honestly the Gameplay of 3 was fine (if a bit heavy on the gimmicks). The problem was the story and character which just at no point worked....
(Also make Legendariers legendary again. What's the point if the first wending machine that i find has like three of them?)
 
One thing i want is transmogriphication or whatever the weapon skin change mechanic is named.
It's such a hassle to find a good looking gun you can't use because it's too underpowered...
