Is the Whedon writing actually soulful?

LOL there was nothing "soul" about its writing. It's always been the series worst aspect.

>>713530945 (OP)
Why is there no sexual harasment cases on randy pitchford, can someone do some digging?

>>713530945 (OP)
They managed to create a good number of memorable characters prior to BL3, which carried the setting. But BL3 showed that Anthony Burch wasn't THAT bad and you can, if fact, find someone even worse.

>>713530945 (OP)
if the soul was rotten and reddit then this is only good
Still don't trust that faggot Randy but I'm watching. I'll wait until release but I am watching.

>the writings better now
>theres no cringe
>theres no meme meme memelands shit anymore!
is complete bullshit, which if you actually watch any of the fucking preview shit they've shown, you'd know
but retards don't actually do any research because that's nerd shit
lemme just drop $130 then cry like a bitch when i bought a turd

>>713530945 (OP)
If the game's more tonally inline with the first it might actually be kind of decent. I'm not buying anything with Randy's name on it regardless though.

There was nothing soulful about Borderlands "writing" after the irony overdose in 2 and beyond.
It was the retarded band kid that knew he was annoying faggot and not some sincere autist in writing form.

Bold departure? It looks the same as it ever was.

>>713530945 (OP)
Borderlands was 11 years ago and they still haven't made a equal as good as it.

>>713532461
Sir please stop actually looking at the product and blindly accept the hype and marketing. Sir this is your last warning.

Not true. Plenty of shit happens in the toilets and it all went into Borderlands 3.

is it also gonna take away half the content in exchange for an "engine upgrade" in the middle of the game's lifecycle?

Borderlands needs some funny and annoying characters, they just have to be in limited doses and you get to kill most of them. The biggest problem with Borderlands 3 was a lot of the annoying characters were your allies and the game treated them like lovable buddies not infuriating faggots.

The entire villain schtick was trash though. The characters actually had and interesting backstory but were portrayed as the worst kind of zoomer-talking twitch streamer piece of shit. It was too memey and forced.

the opposite of Borderlands humor

I simply won't play capeshit quipslop. And borderlands became just that. I just won't do it.

>random weapon part drops as opposed to guns
This is actually a good thing though, retard.

Buzzwords ruined your brain. The humor is gigacringe but it is the soul of Borderlands regardless of how you feel about it.

>>713534330
You tried.

>>713534386
>Buzzwords ruined your brain. The humor is buzzword but it's the buzzword of Borderlands
nigga
i got some bad news about the status w/r/t your intellect

>>713532169
The worst thing that BL3 did was make people think that thew writing in BL2 wasn't that bad in comparison. Just because the VA for handsome jack went off script, doesn't mean that everything else wasn't gay and retarded.

>>713532253
shame about Aliens: Colonial Marines

>>713534459
>You tried.
Tried what? That's literally* the writing of the quest they're showing off in the preview.

>>713533235
>things will be more interesting if we make everything the same
Genius move.

>>713533162
Borderlands worked best in 1, when it was somewhat grim and desolate, the juxtaposition of the humor contrasted well with the cannibal psychos screaming about wearing your skin, and i liked how the background had these massive intergalactic soulless corporations hinting at a really dystopian setting. But no, everyone in the galaxy is a snarky post-ironic quipster, except if you're a bad guy, then you're irredeemably evil and self aware of that fact. 2 was a mistake.

>>NOW I SHALL BE WHOLESOME CHUNGUS FOR TWO MINUTES PLEASE HYDRATE
this part was worse than any cringe borderlands has previously served up, I would rather have them keep being crass and missing the mark than this safe wholesome bullshit

Little jaded fella aren't you

>>713534861
Aw sounds like someone needs a freshly baked protien bar and some water. Cmon tell big brother whats wrong little guy, you want a hug? a nap? I gotchoo senpai!

>>713532169
are we sure Anthony Burch and Maddox aren’t the same person? identical voice and liberal cali faggot personality

>>713534386
Cringe is a buzzword, fuckhead.

>>713534386
The writing is the one thing that's been criticized since 2 and upwards. 2 got a pass but people said it was bordering annoying. Everything past thing upped it for the worst for some reason .

We killed that cringe dialogue for you buddy. Just need to pay that $130 deluxe edition and $150 collector's edition as thanks.

That people talk so much shit about this game, but still buy it in droves and singlehandedly keeps that miserable company tells me plenty of how completely retarded the modern gamer is.

>>713536086
Thanks Randy!

Let's talk about NOGs. Did you like the quest where you catch NOGs for gladiator fights? Did you complete the challange "NOG gonna work here"? Did you replay the game where you'll fight violent NOGs?

For a company as virtue signalling as gearbox, how did this slip by?
