      Considering Borderlands 3 is the only one I never finished that's a good way to explain it, lots of jokes in the other games were eye rolling but BL3 actually irritated me enough to put me in a bad mood.
      Replaying it with friends did not fade out the dialogue as much as I'd hoped either, then a year later I found out some major characters died, in the most absurd ways no less, and I'm sooo glad I didn't play it that far at the time or I might have had an aneurysm. Funny enough that was around the time I stopped caring about AAA games, weird coincidence right?

      Borderlands 1 humor: mostly dark humor with a bit of that "xd random" that didn't age very well but its not so overbearing that it makes you cringe
      Borderlands 2 humor: plays into the "xd random" too hard very much product of its time, lots of jokes make you cringe a bit but its fairly bearable and has a fair bit of nostalgic charm
      borderlands 3 humor: just straight up unbearable cringe that felt incredibly badly aged from day 1

    Borderlands was painfully embarrassing after the first game, Hell midway through the first game it was so cringey that I had to mute all the dialogue while playing.

    This feels like gaslighting bait of a new kind with the same twisted feeling. Over the last 10+ Myself and others have had so many fair and reasonable critiques completely shut down by the same lines. "you're a ____ist" of some kind. Using these kinds of things to deflect any criticisms has become so common that most PR campaigns for promoting movies/shows with questionable casting/changes to source material...etc go straight to it right away. After dealing with it for so long in other fandoms I never imagined I'd hear the same kinds of arguments in the BORDERLANDS FANDOM of all things.
    I'm now hearing statements like "the only reason you have to not like this movie is that the women you like to objectify are mature, confident and badass older women you ageist pig!" and it's like....I love older woman. My soon to be wife is 40 years old and significantly older than I am. I'm none of these labels being thrown my way. I simply think that character traits matter for characters.
    If a character is well known for their dreadlocks they shouldn't be cast as white. If a character is known for their piercing blue eyes and red hair they shouldn't be cast as black. If characters are known for their height and muscular build they shouldn't be cast as a short, disabled woman. When fan favorite characters are either completely erased or miscassed it's totally fine to voice displeasure as character traits allow you to identify a character in the first place.
    This isn't the case for someone like Paul Rudd who's immortal and somehow passes for a 30 something when he's 50 something or Halle Berry who could play characters in their 20s while being in her 40s/50s and now you have Zoe Saldana who's 45 but still can play college characters. When I can see the wrinkles on Lilith, characters that are suppose to be 22 I don't like it. Dr. Tannis being a Doctor must be at least 29 to get that title but is likely early-mid 30s. Jamie Lee Curtis is 65 years old. She hasn't been the right age to play this character in 3 decades! Kevin Hart....was a funny little man, his stand-up is still enjoyable to me but slapping him in EVERYTHING has got old....on top of that he's the exact opposite of Roland in every single way. Not just height, personality, temperament, demeanor....everything about him is wrong.
    Tl;DR; this sucks and it's terrible that we live in a world where something can be bad for obvious reasons but pointing out the obvious somehow makes YOU the problem....

    Something tells me this slop isn't even designed to be successful or make money back but rather promote propaganda and lower the entertainment indsutry standards even lower. It's like they keep testing how low they can go and to what extent it will be eaten up. After all, in the long term they won't even need to cast someone talented/attractive, make a good story, cinematics, since it'll be watched anyway. And it'll cost pennies to make
