Music Tracks:
(I make all the tracks. They're all on my discord and bandcamp.)
Seems like we're in the drip feed phase of getting BL4 news. What do you guys think of this?
excited but skeptical. i really hope that when they say they look at their socials they actually take into account a lot of what the fans want and don’t want. i really hope they can nail this though ill be playing either way cause i love the bl series. also when you said you’re waiting for the gameplay reveal, did they have a release date for that or were you just saying that in general?
Definitely will play it with my old buddy for a first playthrough but I'm really hoping they will improve the replayability and long term life span of the game
I’m just glad it got announced at all this year tbh. It’s confirmed and the tone of the game looks good so I can wait as long as I need to for a good game
Always skeptical nowadays. I want to be excited but with the movie being a flop it's hard to. Even if the movie was just *okay*, I'd be more excited. It just feels like a crystal ball and their cringy humor phase isn't over.
If the game is the same fun without the story as it is with, I wouldn't be surprised.
A drip feed after two years? Did they sit on their asses while being paid what lost of their fans could only dream of making as a salary? How tone deaf of a franchise that constantly lampoons consumerism
They watch their socials “ DEDICATED DROPS DEDICATED DROPS “
I'm not gonna shut up about it
The game does need them.
Also nice tina
MORE GUBS MORE GUBS MORE GUBS.
I'm really afraid that they're going to see dedicated drops and then forget to include something that everyone just takes for granted
"Randy was sick" I really hope this is a PR move to keep him away from anything press related for this game. It would be a good strategy tbh
Exactly my thoughts on this, hopefully they'll keep him away in general so .I may be wrong but he seems to have forgotten he's making a product for consumers and not just his pet project which he can do whatever he wants with in terms of Borderlands lately.
Randy's infantile and lackluster presentation style is everything I've come to expect from Gearbox. Randy represents Gearbox perfectly to me. It's so ironic to me that so many fans of Gearbox's work as of late dislike Randy. 😂 Are you guys fans of this crap or not?? Randy is where that tone came from.
@@MMOchAForPrezOh buzz off you pessimistic Twitter dweller.
I’m just hoping they go off the ending of pre sequel with the “great war” kinda thing
Probably not tbh. Bl3 seemed like they scrapped that idea altogether. I mean, they said that TPS was a massive failure, so why put something in that would remind them of that failure? That would also explain why we haven't seen anything to reference Athena and Jainey
@@reap3rofsouls271And somehow it’s still better than bl3.
Yup Bl4 gonna be trash instead of following up with the pre sequel story they gonna make some other trash
Same. That story needs to continue.
@@admroo9285'Making up stuff' is.. how you make a story LMAO.
For clarification! The beams that show up when items are dropped on the ground aren't just gameplay things! They exist in-universe, and S&S manufactures them! It's revealed in a random radio broadcast in BL3.
The white, green, blue, etc rarities beams?
@@user-lf3zt9bg5u Yup! A BL3 radio ad revealed they're real, in-universe items produced by S&S, not just a gameplay feature.
That's a fun fact. I really like this stuff in BL, like the fact that the whole respawn system is actually operated by Hyperion.
@@madoqenthe echo system was created by Dahl
I always felt it was weird that in the last two games, sirens have been a main plot point but the player siren has no real play in that, even if they don’t do another player siren it’d be neat to see the characters actually playing a role in the story.
Because it's kinda like a time thing sirens usually gain story relevance with time because new sirens aren't really capable which is why Lilith got stronger over and Maya meditated etc over time it kinda stuff you learn from time and patience
In all honesty, youd think all 7 sirens wouldve been on Pandora by now due to eridium. I mean, it only grows on Pandora, attracts sirens like crack to junkies, and ive not seen statements otherwise?
@@dantepizza6310 sirens are born all over just seven can't exist at the same time the commander was one and she died to the vault so we don't know who has that power she lost
In bl1 she opens the vault and dies immediately
@@AMV_KINGDOM_mv i dont know man, by the start of borderlands 3 Amara is already an accomplished and renowned siren in her own right, it makes no sense that the calypsos dont react to her presence the same way they do to Lilith and Maya
@@Bat_Hands lol you talking about phase shifting the moon Lilith and pacifist teach of a planet Maya who was so stronger she left a piece of herself in kriegs mind ....not that Maya right not the prophecy bringer Maya sure on her main planets Amara famous but plz realize each siren I talk about has open vaulted and killed what's inside not saying Amara is weakly but think she would have any pull with Lilith the Firehawk leader of bandits killer of alot of ancient enemies and opener of vaults is kinda silly Maya dang near had a cult 😭😭😭
If you think of Pandora as "the Old West in Space," maybe this new planet will have an "Old World" vibe, like the fog-shrouded streets of London.
So space Victoria era England?
Or something like that?
If "Space Victorian era London" is true I hope there's a space Jack the Ripper.
@@SPrintF1 imma be real, this is my favourite atmosphere type for a game (I'm a Bloodborne enjoyer) but I struggle to see a world where gearbox pulls this off
I miss the mad max aspect of Borderlands 1 and i don't think that will come back 😢
Me too, the series took such a huge shift in tone after the first game, and I think it’s a shame. Took me years to actually play all the way through bl2 after release because of this. The music was a big part for me.
I mean, Borderlands 2 certanly had less of this, but enough to be satisfying I would say... but after that it was just small drops...
@@jacobbecklehimer7781 that remind me the difference between Rage 1 and Rage 2 if you know the game
It was already gone by bl2
as much as I can see the appeal in theory, a game where the whole setting is a bleak gray/brown landscape just wont sell well. Now im sure they could make some areas that way, just not the whole game
I want to see a playable guardian instead of a Siren
That would be really cool. Especially since guardians like the sentinal have similar abilities to amara. So they'd be able to have a new playable character type while still playing like a siren.
@@theremnants6807 True, I think that they could be a great replacement for the "Elemental Class" and each skill tree could transform or alter the guardian to its respective form, like Sera, Wraith, and Opha for example.
I really hope the bl3 story feedback isn’t taken the wrong way. The CONCEPT for the twins and the major themes of bl3 aren’t bad, it’s the execution and delivery of the story and characters that were absolutely trashed
My thoughts exactly. The concept of the twins being influences with a massive cult of bandits has merit. Gearbox just couldn't pull it off.
Idk, the bandits all being influenced by one group seems...still a bit too far fetched, mayne splitting them into factions work better, like the deference between Redbelly's gang and the Dark Siders on Elpis. Just a name and costume change sure, but it makes a little bit more sense than "oops! Only Calyps-Os"
The Twins were good characters in theory and when they were able to act on their own, being crammed together made them both worse.
Amen
@@dantepizza6310 hell, make each clan separate under the calypsos and it would still be better than what we got. sorta like one president over 50 states, each with their own governors.
Just hoping for an actual melee character in this one. Krieg was perfection
As far as the playable vault hunters being more involved with the story goes, I'd love to see NPCs speak to you differently depending on your character, sort of like how NPCs in skyrim would comment on your race or the kind of armor/weapon you had equipped. It was nice having more unique dialogue from the vault hunters in 3, and I'd like to see that extend to the NPCs when speaking to the vault hunters. Imagine if in BL2, Roland had certain lines he would only say to axton because they're both former soldiers, or Lilith having lines she only says to Maya because theyre both sirens
That would be awesome and will make the game more inmersive. I need it!!
Definitely!
I mean, while being called "Vault Hunter" is kind of a series staple, how hard would it to just have each character's name in there instead?
It's not like the characters are blank slates, they are each named with histories and personalities in the lore, so have them addressed by name by their main allies!
Sure, random characters and most enemies would still call them vault hunters, but the main cast should use their names.
Why would Lilith STILL be calling her strongest ally "Vault Hunter", when she could be speaking Maya's name instead?
It's rather dumb that, after working so much together, that all your allies still just call you the generic "Vault Hunter" instead of your name!
It would be a small thing, but would make each playthrough feel more personalised to the character you are playing.
@@dahn57it’s probably because of split screen co-op. If you’re playing as two different characters they can’t have 2 audio recordings that use different names come out of the same tv.
Plus it just makes dialogue flow easier to just say “Vault Hunter” rather than characters names which can make dialogue feel weird depending on who you’re playing as. Like Salvador has a much longer name than Maya and would feel weird trying to just swap their names in the same sentence.
@@WalrusComradCould easily use the line for the character who triggered the line (whether by proximity or by the dreaded "Talk to [X]" prompt)
All I want is a return to the morally gray tone that made the series so special in the first place, It wasn’t just a simple case of good or bad. The first two games dropped us into a world where everyone was out for themselves, driven by greed, revenge, power, but most just trying to survive. Nothing captures this idea so succinctly than the very music that backdrops the games intros-"Ain't No Rest for the Wicked" in the first game, and "Short Change Hero" in the second, sets out at the beginning to let the player know that this isn't a tale of heroes and villains, only Vault Hunters, and people in the way.
The Vault Hunters in the first two games weren't out to save the world; they were treasure hunters, mercenaries, people with their own agendas. Hell, the only reason the Vault Hunters are set on the path they're on, is because they initially SIDED with Handsome Jack, and were betrayed. They didn't go after him because it was the right thing to do, they did it to get even.
Handsome Jack also wasn't evil just for the sake of being evil. He views the Vault Hunters as just as bad as the psychos and bandits of Pandora (which he isn't wrong to believe to some extent) and viewed himself as the hero who was gonna bring order to the chaos, even if his methods were ruthless. That’s what made the story so engaging-you never knew who was truly right or wrong.
Then Borderlands 3 came around and traded all that for comically evil, and unbearably annoying villains, and somehow even more annoying heroes. (other than zane, he can do no wrong in my eyes)
Here’s hoping Borderlands 4 goes back to its roots and brings back that complex storytelling. That’s the Borderlands I fell in love with, and it would be awesome to see that depth return.
Seeing as how their writing quality dwindled, and how it's still the same writers around, my hopes aren't exactly high.
@@sereenaty Neither are mine, but a man can dream.
@@blackbox8697 I feel like they never understood what made BL2 a hit, nor what made Jack a popular Character in the franchise.
So you think the most comic relief character in the history of the series can do no wrong?
Seriously?
Like how do you even reach that conclusion after that rant about how the game doesnt take itself seriously enough.
@@nathancurwood What are you talking about?
I hope they still add a siren I think there kinda iconic when it comes to borderlands
Isn't there like 1 siren left in the world rn
To still need to introduce I mean specifically
I don’t know but some did die in the bl3 so maybe they pass there powers on like jacks daughter
As long isn't Eva
I mean yes and no. One we havent seen which would be the 7th, but then theres the other sirens who need to get the power of tyreen and commadant steele. So i guess technically it'd be 3 new sirens@juicymuscprod9624
For the Vault Hunters' involvement in the story, I think if they do what they did in "Dead Island 2" could be fun. The cutscenes do involve the characters themselves, Even being in 1st person, But the main thing is, in DI2, when the survivors talk they each say something different. Not too different, Every character might just say "WTF' but they'll each say if differently, the way they say it in a way to imply personality. Think the drop-pod scene from BL3, but in a story cutscene.
Joltz I think the concept art is all for the new planet that was hidden. It would make sense that it would be packed and densely populated if they were isolated from the rest of the universe for a long time. So I think there will also be some classic barren planets that we’re used to.
That is a possibility. However, I do wonder if we will be traveling to multiple planets similar to BL3
@@Joltzdude139 Fair point! Hopefully if we’re restricted to one planet again it’ll be super big so there’s enough room for some wastelands that the inhabitants had to abandon a long time ago or something. Like maybe their original settlements from when they first went into hiding.
It’s also very possible that they specifically showed the art for dense cities on the planet since that would be far more interesting than concept art for a baren area. Personally, I hope the whole game (or at least most of it) is on one planet so it gets more detail and attention
@@N0cturrnee Definitely possible that they just thought the barren stuff would be boring and I think don’t think focusing on one planet would be bad, but I definitely don’t just want dense cities if that’s the case. Your point it getting the benefit of extra attention to detail is definitely true.
@@Joltzdude139 I could see either way. Honestly, it would be cool to have multiple planets. Allows for more diversity and unique-ness.
1:30 Bruh it’s crazy how this series has panned out exactly like its main inspiration, Diablo.
1: Rough around the edges but still quite good.
2: Perfection of the idea, widely regarded as best in the series.
3: Highly controversial.
4: Marketed as a return to form/ getting back to the series’ roots. 💀
2 was not perfection, it wasnt on release and it isnt now
@@theurbanreanimator7244 I said perfection of the idea not flawless execution. Yeah 2 had some problems but it’s still by far the best in both series.
@@PepeLa_ not even close, BL3 does the Borderlands Gameplay way way better than BL2 could ever hope to, and the Presequel did the BL2 specific gameplay better.
@@theurbanreanimator7244 Krieg is the best thing in the franchise so BL2 kinda just wins by default
@@theurbanreanimator7244 The fundamental “Borderlands Gameplay” is exactly the same across the whole series.
Just because 3 has flashier visuals thanks to UE4 doesn’t automatically make it a better game. 😂
It was held back massively by baffling design choices like getting rid of pearls and making legendaries super common etc.
i don't know if anyone noticed it but in the trailer SHOWED AT THE PAX, and only that trailer, when the meteor crashes on the surface a part of what seems like a SHiFT code can be seen on the left part of the screen. If you want to see it for yourself you have to rewatch the live of the PAX
If there is one, I'm guessing it's a gold key code.

Can you imagine though? You discovered this secret code in the trailer that only a few sharp eyes would catch at that moment.
They punch the code into Shift only to get a single Golden Key as a ribbon of participation.
My theory was the "meteors" are orbital drop pods of psychos.
I also loved how the VHs had personalities and spoken dialog in 3, but I'm really glad to hear about them being in cutscenes.
My theory is that they are eridian artifacts. Things the were released with the opening of the great vault.
Its chunks of elpis after it tears through whatever planetery shield is hiding this place.
2:18 I hope that means NO Ava.
Borderlands fans are so cringe about Ava.
She is not going to be the same character in BL4. They have the means to give her some decent character development which they already sort of leaned into in the Murder Mystery missions which were pretty decent.
@theobell2002 yes....WE were the cringe....no irony there.
@oncinaust5178 literally yes. Ava could be completely redeemed in BL4 and people like you will still complain about her in BL3. It's been like 5 years just get over it already lol
@theobell2002 she got a fan favorite character killed, ava is not wanted by majority players
I used to love throwing grenades into Ava's room in Sanctuary
I really wanna see more Zane. Dude has gotta be my favorite vault hunter in terms of character.
Zane was [dripping] with personality. Zane playthroughs are an absolute blast. The highlight of giving the Vault Hunters unique dialogue lines.
Plus he was related to some bosses/enemies we killed, the flint family, made him the most interesting vault hunter by default in bl3
I bet fl4k's backstory will be fleshed out in the new game although people thought zer0 would get some backstory in bl3 but that never happened, as long as zane and moze arent deligated to a "battle royale announcer" role like salvador and axton were@@GokuBlackRose978
Randy was performing his magic tricks again.
😂 “magic tricks”
Im waiting for game play! I dont wanna judge it too soon!
Same here
i trust them, bl3 gameplay was phenomenal
@@devanlolla bl2 story / humor, bl3 gameplay fusion hopefully
I think this will be the more “Darker” version of a borderlands game. Not talking about horror (while the possibilities of certain game parts is there), but a more grim feeling with darker humor, darker/grim settings, more a feeling there’s a war going on.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂@@devanloll
Funnily enough in regards to vault hunters being absent from cutscenes in bl3 - wouldn't tyreen and troy want to go out of their way to leech amara, they want power and there's another siren right there, just off camera
Tbf lore wise she's always with the other playable vault hunters. So risking death by attempting to attack them probably is too risky for them if we're being realistic.
After the latest update to Risk of Rain 2, I have nothing but contempt for Gearbox as a company.
The whole Twitch chat was people spamming "FIX RoR2!"
@@Joltzdude139I'm unsure of the point at 1:46 given how none of the higher-ups at gearbox have acknowledge the abysmal state of ror2 and that it took them 3 days for them to even make it playable on xbox. I'm especially pissed at Randy given how he thinks the game is fine as is ATM
@@Joltzdude139rightfully so, its just sad to see a game like it just get...ruined by a single update, all for a 20 to 25 dollar dlc that adds so little.

I think what would be cool to see for active vault hunter participation, is that all four vault hunters are there, cause they canonically supposed to be, but the one you're playing, even in multiplayer, acts like the "leader" by being the one who vocally responds to characters or something
Maybe have like whoever started the lobby does the main talking and we get like quips from the others in your party afterward, that would be neat
@@jackpitman15 I would just make it so it's whoever you're playing, even if it's not the host
VH being involved in the story how they were in pre sequel was phenomenal so amazing they doing that again
We better get Face McShooty Jr.
its always nice if they put in refrences from older titles, it feels right at home man
Whatabout Steve tho? The hero of the vault? King of bandits? Greatest Bartender?!
@@dantepizza6310 they didnt even keep steve's character model for 3. They used a psycho instead of a marauder. I still hope we get him in 4. Imagine playable steve!

@@dantepizza6310HEYO!
Or tiny tina (i guess its just tina now)
Imagine being able to play as every last vault hunter AND new ones
I think it'll be cool if old fan favorite vault hunters returned with each dlc launch. I'd prefer to see at least 1 returning character from each game be playable.
I wouldnt be mad if after this game they go back and remake borderlands 1 in the current engine, that game has aged pretty poorly
Gearbox has a lot of cleanup to do after the recent disasters. I'm cautiously optimistic with this news in particular, but overall, I'm not spending my money until I see the end product. After the Borderlands movie, BL3, Wonderlands, New Tales, and even Risk of Rain 2: Seekers of the Storm just a few days ago, Gearbox has done nothing but miss for several years. It's going to take a lot to regain trust.
We can just simply wait to watch joltz to play bl4. Top on the BL tubers leaderboard so its likely he'd get a copy early.
Gear box has missed with every game after bl2
@@muzi69 3's gameplay was amazing until all the extra buffs made the game way too easy. It had at least some challenege until mayhem 11 scaling hugely buffed all action skills
wdym, wonderlands was super good
Yeah idk bro. BL3 and wonderland’s gameplay was fun as hell for me and the boys. Even solo play I enjoyed myself so I don’t see your point other than the movie and pre sequel part 2. BL3 also had FIRE dlc and that 4th moze skill tree was fun as hell 😂
4:27 I don't think those are loot beams but rather more hologram stuff, since you see the beam 2nd the right when going up splits off into 2 beams
The same goes for the third from the left.
Maybe we get a soft reboot where we play as vault hunters not related to the crimson raiders
yeah why can't we be a bandit faction instead of offical vault hunters? crimson raiders --> the bloodshots. The game pits the amateur-vault-hunter-player against the proffesional vault hunters like Crimson Raiders & Corporate teams.
Maybe a potential time skip where all the previous characters are long gone and the new vault hunters have to deal with the guardians and the war
That would be very interesting@@eliseonavarro9168
@@gabrielwest999agreed. The vault hunters arent good people. They arent written as good people. They are power, fame, fortune hungry. Yet they are always, seemingly, on the "good" side. Which... Stinks. Im a person looking for fane and fortune, a pirate of sorts, looking for treasure. Not a moral do gooder.
@@naturesfinest2408the reason vault hunters have ended up on the "good side" is literally in the lore of the games though.
I hope they add more playable characters. Having only four hurts replay value. And the best characters in BL2 (in my opinion) came as DLC, so did the best ones in the pre-sequel
I know it's not a super big priority for everoyne, but I really want them to go back to doing DLC characters. Was super missed in BL3, especially since the extra trees didn't really do much to spice up the gameplay of the base characters.
Zane and moze benefitted from the new trees quite a bit especially with the right "on action skill use" annoints on zane which made him even stronger
@@jackpitman15 Were the trees good? Yes. But they didn’t fundamentally change change the characters, a new character would be completely different from just adding an extra tree or two.
Randy not making it due to being "sick" from the feedback of the RoR2 DLC on twitter i imagine lol
I just want a continuation of the TPS cliffhanger. Tone back the stupid jokes for the sidequests and let the mainstory have a more serious darker tone.
Damn I really wanted Kreig to return as a vault hunter but as a reformed kreig that can swap through 2 different personalities/abilities. Thought it would been cool for gameplay and everyone loves his character.
reactive characters has me so hyped!!! one of my biggest issues with bl3
Not just in 3vall the games. Let's not forget how after Roland dies the vault hunter just stands there and lets jack talk shit and kidnap Lilith (it's funny if you play as krieg).
It would definitely make them feel more alive and there.
I mean, outside the cutscenes they were fine, but then when the most important part came, THE CUTSCENES, they were non existent... lol
@@Cuestrupaster BL2 also did this. Did everybody just forget the time Handsome Jack teleported behind Roland, shot him, captured Lilith and our characters just watching the whole thing?
@@theobell2002 I don't think that's a good example, like if that actually happened irl I totally can see it going exactly the way it went, because it was out of nowhere... Jack was the entire game "all talk, no action" and Angel even reforces that during the control core sequence, so I can totally see the VHs getting surprised by he coming out of nowhere, and when finally getting their senses back... you know Lillith tries to attack him, he's just quicker on the act, and then the Vault Hunters just don't want him to kill her...
~It all depends on how believable you can make a scene, which wasn't the case with any of them in BL3...
RAID BOSSES, HYBRIDS, DEDICATED DROPS, MOD TOOLS
I hope we can go back to the Moon of Pandora I would love to see an older pickle and nurse Nina
True. Pickle is overhated.
LFG!!!! BL2 loot and weapon part systems with BL3 build diversity and action skill variation.
Vault hunters being in cutscenes and reacting is good. It really annoyed me that when Jack kills Roland and puts the collar on Lilith, the vault hunters do nothing and just let it happen
i'm just hoping that BL4 doesn't get the risk of rain 2 DLC treatment. But knowing gearbox and randy, I'm bloody worried
3:52 Since 09 I've loved Borderlands but my hope died here, it looks the same as BTPS, B3 - The whole thing that was so so cool about the first 2 games was that the world around you felt empty and unnoccupied, like you were the last hope...yet they continue to force this cyberpunk theme in our face
I get what ur saying, but I think the different locations where one of the few good things Borderlands 3 added - yes, pandora Is supposed to be a mostly deserted planet, but the rest of the galaxy Is hyper-industrialized and controlled by big corporations (the weapon manufacturers). I personally really enjoy that aspect of the world, It makes the vault Hunters feel like and opposing force to this industrial world, which I think Is really cool
This doesn’t mean the whole game will look like this…?
But Pandora was exactly like that. Ofc the home planet of Atlas is going to be a bustling metropolitan paradise.
Back in 2009 when I was still enjoying Halo 3, a friend suggested I switch things up and try this new game that looks like Mad Max with tons of guns in it. After playing BL 1, I immediately fell in love with the story and characters. As a fan I'm still enjoying BL3 and can't wait for BL4!
Something I'd love to see but highly doubt they'd do, is make a playable character with non flesh health. Like if FL4K was all armor instead, or a siren will natural shields in place of most for their HP. I'd also like to see options outside of shields for extra health, again give us armor or some new kind of hit point. I want them to experiment with new stuff like Health, I think it'd be cool at least.
Sirens having shields naturally would be an interesting tie to their Eridian ancestry. But, perhaps on top of that, shields that provide ogher kinds of protection too, a shield that gives you armor on top of your health bar with a corrosive weakness sounds instead pretty neat, right?
I believe claptrap in TPS was like this.
They already did this with iron bear, so i could definitely see them doing this on a base character.
In the pre sequel fragtrap was basically that.
Claptrap did this in the presequel. He took less damage from fire but more from corrosive
No slag mechanics with guns. Do what BL3 did with having the vault hunter abilities weaken enemies.
Bring back grinder that was fun
New weapon manufacturers
The grinder should return fully with multiple functions on top of it's original purpose. Such as rebuilding a weapon to change all it's stats or even changing the weapons level to match you're current level (both up and down)
I also think the ability to makes weapons like the eridian fabricator would be cool too.
Also I really really hope eridian weapons return from bl1
Thank god Randy couldn't make it 🙏 🙌
I think them saying that the characters are going to be a major part of the story might be from listening to people not like that Lilith was given the credit for killing Jack when really it was the 6 Vault Hunters from BL2... which is actually a good thing because it means they DO listen to the feedback
I doubt we'll be getting something like separate cutscenes based on the character you'll be playing. My money would be that the cutscenes are gonna feature all four characters.
i like how the concept art looks like a techy-updated bl1 grunge vibe. it would be neat to have some big cities in between big wastelands, but if we're on a new planet it could be anything.
You're the only channel i've heard that mentioned that the new 4 vault hunters are gonna finally be shaken up but as well have possibly different story paths no matter how minor it is that has gotten me really excited and even more so with our charaters finally being involved and put in with the cut scenes. Also makes me feel relived that GearBox are FINALLY LISTENING about who we like. This could be the start of something good. Don't wanna get too excited but it is seeming positive!
(just waiting for Randy to say something and it all change now...)
I mean...borderlands 4 is their last chance. Wonderlands, New Tales and recently the movie... . My expectations are very low now. The writers for bo3 ruined already established characters not to mention all the new ones. And the lazy npc design like on eden 6...they all share the same eye colour. Also the normal bandits have all babyfaces. All those little details changed borderlands in a weird way. I miss the dark humour but still with some seriousness overall and being a "badass".
@@sleepy_owl3700BL1 was unironically the best mix of humor and seriousness
4:12 so we get borderlands 2077
With the return of Elpis, we very well could see the return of Threshers. & they should come back. Canonically speaking, all the ones in BL2 came from just Terry & Slappy. There were definitely more of them inside that cave.
Yeah, let's bring back bullymongs, buzzards, and rabid stalkers too. 😏
If anything on the planet survived
I like that this game looks a little grittier returning back a little bl2, bl1 a little in art style it doesn’t look as cartoon ish.
Another guess, the meteors are fragments of another vault key? Trying to think what would be significant in lore 🤔
Sounds like with Vault hunters reacting to the story it's gonna be like the pre-sequel with some writing stuff involved past what they had there, pretty exciting. Looking forward to seeing the new visual style of the game with modern graphics.
Don’t think I’ve ever been this early but it’s a good first for bl4 news
Same
I have always noticed there is the designated soldier tank sniper siren characters across all games and then the dlc ones mix it up so some fresh ideas would be good but I hope we get bl3 like skill trees bc those are a lot easier to mod so the community could make custom vault hunters easier
after the tremendous horrific fumble of the risk of rain 2 dlc im a little worried
Not defending the launch but the only real issues are the performance, stability, bugs (etc.) right? I heard the actual content is good.
@@OH-uh4pc the content is about half of the previous dlc at the same price, with broken bosses of lower quality than existing mods, the new maps are great tho
@@OH-uh4pc I heard they tied something important to framerate which is causing a lot of issues and is literally rule 1 of game dev anymore bc of all the frame rate issues with old games brought to more modern systems.
@@OH-uh4pc The only content that's good are the maps. Items are uninspired, boring and have no synergy with other items which just dilutes the fun items. And characters are a massive lackluster.
@@OH-uh4pc not really, almost all the new items are all extremely underwhelming and dont synergize with any other items in the game, and false sun feels like a modded character and is extremely clunky and slow. but i will give them credit for all the new stages they added
"Oh if only we had a siren right now!"
The siren standing right there silent
I'm glad our characters won't just "exist" off to the side while a cutscene plays out with zero reaction or impact to the events happening. I'll happily take the "Default skin" versions of the 4 Vault Hunters actually doing things even if you're playing alone or have 4 of the same VH, for story purposes it would just show the main 4 and I'm fine with this.
Placing item drop light beams in the concept art can make sense for borderlands because these environments are going to be scattered with them. This way the artists can make sure the item drops dont visually fade away in the background
Im excited for bl4. Not hyped yet, but excited.
I think it would be cool, the vault hunters had their own tutorial intro meets the other characters into the actual story, so their reaction may come from how they were pulled into the story
Man i hope they dont get rid of the barren feel that pandora gives you. Its my favorite part of the original 2 games. The feeling that you are on a barren planet that drives people mad fighting over what little resources are left chasing after an ancient magical treasure.
I’ve never been so excited for a game
there is still one siren that is out there that we dont know of since commandant steele from bl1 died to the destroyer
Yup. Tho I gotta admit it'll be interesting to see how a newly powered siren character works. Since every single siren we played has their powers from the beginning
@@theremnants6807i honestly doubt they will add another siren since tyreen died and they are more than likely going to introduce the seventh siren out there but it would be cool to see if they do
@@ohmiquan As long as it's not a more grown up Ava after a timeskip, I'll take any Siren.
@@kayschut9327gotta let go of the ava hate atp she’s in the story and she’s a siren now not much can be done now
It would be interesting if the world inside the shield was completely isolated from the outside and had almost no knowledge of the vaults. The meteors bring eridium to this hidden planet which will lead to the opening of the vault. The villain could be a native of the new planet who tries to monopolize the new resources in some way. We could have a whole new host of enemies along with the ones we know who are also invading this new planet.
It does suck that they messed up RoR2 so bad
soooo stoked, i hope they dont oversaturate the visuals and keep that bl2 aesthetic, thats my personal favorite
I’m curious if we are only going to be on this one big planet instead of multiple planets. Also curious how many old characters will return since they want to focus on bringing a lot of new characters
The meteors remind me of the random meteors in TPS that dropped loot. I used to really enjoy chasing those down. I'm relieved they're going with fully developed Vault Hunter characters and not the custom builds like in Wonderlands. Those were fun for Wonderlands' D&D approach, but I like having fleshed out characters with more skill tree choices.
Gearbox ruined risk of rain 2 I have little hope for this game
Im incredibly excited for more borderlands. hands down my favorite looter shooters of all time.
4:07 futuristic, dystopia? It looks cool I fuck with it..... but the gameplay and story are what I'm waiting on
4:30 The loot beams are actually an in-universe technology starting in BL3, as they're manufactured by S&S Accessories (formerly S&S Munitions).
I hope we get some more abandoned places. Few enemies, spaced out properly. Creepy vibes, basically Benediction of Pain meets Neguhl Nashai.
loot beams are in universe as mentioned in borderlands 3.
any chance the meteors are eridium/moonstones? also, why do i feel like that planet is an eridian planet?
I'm hoping the map variety is there. Best part of bl3 outside of updated shooting and movement tech was the variety of locations imo
No Ava as a vault hunter is a huge deal
southern shelf and its soundtrack is the vibest vibes that ever vibed
i dont trust gearbox in any capacity after bl3, especially not now after the risk of rain 2 dlc fiasco that's going on rn. i lowkey hope gearbox dies so someone else can take the ip and something better with it than gearbox can
I hope there is another siren, they’ve always been my favorite they’re always cool
Well we haven't technically learned what 1 of the 6 siren's abilities are. Meaning if there is a new siren character it'll be someone that just recently got them.
They listen to social media we post? Lol, Ava is so screwed in BL4.
They'll probably just do a 10+ year time skip or something to overhaul the character. Probably making them feel completely different while still technically "having the same character"
I really hope they cover all kinds of biomes in the base game just like how they did BL2, base BL3 was lacking snow and tundra biomes and most of the areas have gray rocks, tech, metals and biomes, even Eden-6 looks boring. Also dynamic weather would be terrific, should be easy to add since we already have dynamic day & night cycle
I'm sorry, but with what just happened to Risk of Rain 2, I will be assuming a 0/10 game no matter what Gearbox says or shows us. I'm done having any hopes or expectations for anything tied to Gearbox. I can't do this anymore.
FUN FACT: the item loot beams are actually not just gameplay mechanics but are what S&S munitions switched to producing the loot beams on guns in the universe after bl1, this was revealed in a hidden broadcast at one of the crimson radio towers in bl3, The more you know!

Maybe they're not loot beams, but some kind of 'ground lighting' for the setting? It'd be neat to have little glowing arrows on the ground to show you where to go, instead of just a quest marker, especially in a bigger city setting where it could be difficult to navigate.
They watch socials? *REMOVE AVA REMOVE AVA ROMOVE AVA*
Im praying for a set in stone psycho class this time. My all time favorite to play is my boy kreig man
4:17 big cities was my favorite part of every borderlands games tbh. Giant desert maps was kinda boring. Like the dust from 2
That would be dope with the story and way more interaction between the vault hunters and cpus
After the witnessing the current state of Risk of Rain 2, I have no hope for Borderlands 4
I have some concerns after seeing how Gearbox recently handled Risk of Rain 2
I really hope the new vault hunters have personality traits that will affect stuff in the story
I doubt it'll effect the outcome of any events. It'll probably just be dialogue differences for the vault hunters and NPC depending on who you play. Most game's usually do it that way.
Hell yeah I always liked that if you play Athena in TPS you feel like you're an actual part of the story
In terms of the vault hunters playing a role in the story. I think that cut scenes and major story points should involve all 4 characters wether you are in coop with them all or not. So even though I'm playing as fl4k, I should see all of the vault hunters in cut scenes if they are implemented in the 4th game
