As if he wasn't a big enough tool, in that thumbnail pic he now looks like Eli Gemstone (with long hair).

Is this like a midlife crisis look or something.

There are definitely franchises that could get away with it. I don't think Borderlands is one of them, and I don't think it benefits the game to have less people playing when a big part of its appeal is co-op.
 
I mean, he's not wrong, but it's also hard to give a good answer without giving people the "wait for a sale" thought in their heads.
Which is definitely not what they want.

Damn I haven't heard something so arrogant since "PS3 will increase your discipline and make you get a second job"

Get absolutely fucked, dude.
 
I just finished The Pre-Sequel after dipping in about out for several years, and to scratch my itch I reinstalled BL1, added some QOL mods thanks to a fan made SDK system, threw in DXVK, and now I'm enjoying it all over again. I enjoyed 1 more than 2 or TPS. I might get BL3 on sale at some point.

4? I don't see myself needing it any time soon, but thanks all the same.

He is right. games have been 50-80$ for last 30 years.
The only reason all this gamers whining has done, is creating stupidly long open world bloated games to "justify" this price.
I loved the 360/ps3. Games were 50-60, perfect length and single player.
 
This industry is in for a major crash. Sure maybe the super fans will buy this, but literally no one else will. That is a recipe for disaster.
 
I'm okay with being a faux fan and wait for it to drop to 66/75% off.
Still haven't played BL3 past the second planet because of my low tolerance for cringe.

To make price points but that's was a stupid ass randy response if I've ever seen one.

My sentiments exactly. The market should dictate pricing not getting developers. If I have to I'll wait til it's below 80 before I buy it. I Blame Nintendo and Microsoft basically giving the green light on this greedy behavior.
 
Guess we're about to see how many people are thirsty enough for more Borderlands to pay $80 for it.

It better be really, really damn good if they ask $80 for it. If it's just "more of that mildly enjoyable Borderlands formula you're already so familiar with" then this is the easiest "wait for sale" ever.

Community Poll  Thread 'Gamepass - Subscribe Cancel and Refund Life Hack'

This is the third month in a row where i've subscribed for like 20 days give or take on GP, cancelled and they're fine just giving me a full refund. I'm not going out of my way to get it. They just give me the option when I go to cancel the sub front and centre. They want me to do it so i'll keep doing it.

What's your experience with this? Do they just stop allowing it after so many months? Is Microsoft retarded? Have I been blessed by @adamsapple?

I can't with some of the people on this site.

Haha, bunch of hypocritical fanboy weirdos lmao.

Gone on for years about the moral standing ground of renting games and not supporting studios etc

And then, because they show their clear fanboyism they want to not even contribute to the funds a studio may receive from gamepass because they are pulling shady shit.

The funny part is, it's all the people you expect to be saying they will and want to do this.

I am just glad that I make enough money that I don't have to waste my personal time doing this shit.

And it has nothing to do with MS...

I remember the BG3 thread in particular how certain people were using VPN to nab the XBOX version for developing world prices.

A lot of people will agree, but also, at the same time say Borderlands isn't worth that much, and only the best of the best games are.
 
Borderlands has always been a piece of unfunny shit, now they want people that actualy enjoy this trash to go out and sell there arsehole if they want it on release day, youl find a way you fucking mugs.
