Borderlands 4

[phil bottle 10,163]

I've not really bothered watching this games promos as I got bored with the series and don't like mandy prickford who makes it.

 

Looks much the same other than it seems to need some optimisation, pretty standard these days lol

I didn't even bother picking up Borderlands 3 when it was £2.99 so I doubt I'll pick this up. Apparently it's plagued with performance issues and invisible walls that completely restrict the playing space. I'm sure the story is better than the last game but that isn't much of a feat really. The first two were great games but this is something I can't really be bothered with now.

Yep, first two were excellent and had a certain charm to them, I enjoyed them a lot.

 

If I want a Borderlands experience I can always go back to them, 2 still holds up really well.

Randy Pitchfork making a complete tit of himself as usual. He stated to expect performance issues and when people start complaining having bought the game about the woeful problems that were far worse than he remotely suggested, he takes it out on the customers. There's people reportedly getting under 60fps on 5090's.

I still prefer 1, but 2 wasn't bad. Tiny Tina ruined it for me. That and the constant need to have weapons do things other than shoot straight was just way to much.

Apparently the game itself is actually quite decent this time around, just ruined by the shoddy optimisation.

Compared to what though? Does my shotgun shoot in waves? does my pistol turn into a grenade? Do I have to listen to Villains talk like drunk white frat boys attempting to sound like hip hop artists? 

 

BL1 had a solid balance IMO of gimmicky weapons, and dialogue that was funny. 

 

IDK man, these games are clearly not for me, I'm going to go yell at kids on my lawn

Ha ha yeah must agree on that, the 'humour' wore thin very quickly for me. They took the first game and went ham with it in it's follow up games and it just became annoying.
