Characters inspired by Twitter is never the way to go. Love the graphics though never would have thought cel shaded could look this clean till Borderlands 3 and it's still surprising me
I'm a huge Borderlands fan. I've played thousands of hours between 1,2 and 3 and of course played the first Tales. Nothing about this game seems appealing to me. The characters are terrible and unrelatable, and I've heard most of the jokes are unfunny. Literally all they had to do was continue the story from the first game and people would've loved it! Gearbox should be ashamed about what they are doing to such a beloved franchise.
What?! You haven't played the pre sequel? I'm playing it now on PS3. It's so f'ing hilarious. 2 is still my favorite though. You should play the pre sequel!
@Wojtek Troll Whenever someone uses the word "woke" you know their opinion has no value as they can't give any valid reasons as to why the game is bad.
Literally all that they had to do was use the same characters. The one thing we were asking for was a true sequel to TFTBL. We were definitely not asking for this.
This is. This is exactly that. They either didn't have permission to continue with the old characters, or they just didn't care. The second one is more likely.
Because 7 for them is the game not bad but not great And its their opinion they usually release many 9 or 10 that we dont think should deserve that, and 5 or 6 that should get higher score
Why do numbers under 5 even exist then? Reviewers never let you know a game is bad by giving it a 1 or a 2. They might say some bad things about it but then still give it a 6 or 7.
@@ifthisismyhandlewhereismyspout Most say 4-5 means it is functioning. If a game has a 2 it doesnt just have a shitty story, it has bad presentation, gamebreaking glitches, and probably crashes a lot. If a game visually looks ok and offers the basics while it is not enjoyable it will usually get about 5. But if a developer cares that little and doesnt try chabces are its also going to be a bug filled mess and land in the vinicinity of 4
You know your game is utter crap (and that's saying something when you have the beloved Borderlands franchise behind you) when all you can afford to buy is a 7 from IGN because purchasing a rating of 8 out of 10 would have cost Gearbox more money than this steaming pile of jabber poop was going to make in sales.
Given its a borderlands game why not have it be more mass effect like so dialogue trees but with exploration combat that isn't qte and actual gear with stats etc
Then that would just be a regular Borderlands game LOL.... This is actually NOT the same genre as Borderlands... It is actually a completely different franchise that uses the lore of borderlands and thats it... So they will NOT be adding combat to any of the "Tales From" games. This is an "interactive film" game; which means that it NOT supposed to have combat and gear... The "Interactive Film" genre is basically a movie in video game form and you can choose how the story unfolds... The first Tales From The Borderlands game was made by TellTale games which is known for making The Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us games.... Gearbox wanted to have a 2nd game franchise with the same lore from Borderlands, but in a completely different genre.... so gearbox actually WANTED this game to just be a story based game.... If it had combat and gear in it; it would be Borderlands 4 lol....
The next borderlands should incorporate these type of cut scenes mixed with the fun borderlands gameplay You know, make it an ultimate rpg and make our characters come to life
The best part of this game is purposefully letting these characters get brutally killed. The dev team put a lot of work in the death animations. It's too bad the writing didn't receive the same love.
Let's check Steam… Oh, there is no Linux version and no 21:9 screen support. So, I'm stuck again with the ‘just use Proton’ and the ‘it's the default resolution of the engine’ excuses. Oh, there's *also* mandatory Denuvo (for a solo game, lol) and a mandatory CLUF agreement. Well, I'll just put the game in the ‘it sounds cool but it's smells bad’ bin. And save this comment to reupload it as many times as necessary for the entire next week, since it will probably be deleted a number of times by the PR department to save face.
So boring reading all these 7/10 memes over and over again when it's the most common score for a reason. But you all keep meming for your dopamine hits of virtual thumbs up
After finished Boderland 3, I think it is saved to say this new tale from Boderland will be f*cked. Dry humor, boring storyline and unfunny + annoying characters, that is the new game will be about.
Such a shame. All they needed to do was use the same characters everyone loved lol
@PhantomKnight ded in Miami
Yeah sure, that's alllll they needed to do
@@panakindrywaller it really is tho lol
@@bm-in4lm Writing a decent story to go with those same characters is another thing they needed to do
Ehh. Every Borderlands has had new player characters, including the first Tales. New characters don't bother me, as long as they're likable.
Jesus why are the main characters SO repulsive? Did developers competed internally who will make the most unlikable caricature of a person?
Cuz they black
@Dootie Universities and Colleges are just activist factories these days. It’s scary.
Love borderlands but these new characters seem straight up poo
