I've been playing Tiny Tina's Wonderlands after I turned the dialogue volume to 0 and removed all subtitles and it's actually a pretty good game, however anytime I see this tranny freak character it gives me a massive cortisol spike, can't imagine what this freak sounds like but I keep seeing IT too much, even without dialogue options or voice lines it's so unbearable to look at, I want to fucking kill it slowly.

I actually had fun playing Wonderlands with the dialogue on. It's campy, it's juvenile, it's post-ironic, but it's very gay if you mind that and there was no motivation to finish the story despite having fun reaching level 25 and playing side quests here and there.

Tina was fine in BL2 because she barely appeared in it. It was only when the devs realized that people liked her and started shoving her everywhere did she become annoying. The same thing happened to Mr. Torgue.

He was funny when he appeared sometimes, but then they started to force him in any scene they could fit him in and the joke lost all merit.

That said I would still take Tina at her worst over Ava any day of the week.

No, the nepo character created to be a mary sue for Burch's sister wasn't okay. Like in what world is the 12 years old who speaks using excessive black slang and has every character tell you how cool and badass she is okay?

Ava was unironically better because at least Maya treats her like a child instead of a ultra badass killing machine like everyone in bl2 did with Tina.

Yeah, it's pretty bad, and I say that as a fan of the series. It may just be personal taste, but without spoiling too much, they basically double down on everything I found tiring/burnt out about the series, I.E. the Sirens. After 2 and Pre-Sequel, it felt time for a soft reboot, but they just kept dragging out the same "themes" and jokes and storyline. It's so tiresome, and the classes weren't even that good.
The game's biggest flaw is unironically having too much content. It's too big and 90% of the main quests feel like padding with a shitton of backtracking between areas. Meanwhile as you do that characters will, and I am not exaggerating, never shut the fuck up over the radio. God forbid if you even bother to do some side content. You'll spend 10 hours in one biome, constantly going back and forth as Friends-tier dialogue plays over the coms constantly, even to the point where you can travel from the start of a quest to the objective and the dialogue still hasn't ended or even gotten to the point, also known as the setup for the actual fucking quest you've already halfway if not entirely completed.
Again, I enjoyed the series for what it was up to that point, and I am even looking forward to Borderlands 4, and I wholeheartedly recommend you stay the fuck away from 3. It's just Gearbox wanking themselves off for 50 hours and not even introducing anything interesting to the gameplay, let alone rebalancing it.

>Pandora's moon Elpis, after being teleported away by Lilith using her Siren powers,[a] destroyed the protective barrier of a planet named Kairos.[5] In Borderlands 4, players assume the role of a Vault Hunter who must lead the resistance against a ruthless dictator named the Timekeeper and his army of synthetic followers named the Order on Kairos, while searching for "secret alien treasures".
>While the team avoided using the term "open world", Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford claimed that Borderlands 4 was "the most open and free" game in the franchise, contrasting Borderlands 3's planet-hopping structure, which resulted in a more "compartmentalized" design.[3] As with its predecessors, Borderlands 4 was envisioned to be a humorous game, though the team wanted to ensure that the humor derived from emergent gameplay, in which the playable Vault Hunters will react to actions performed by players.[9] As Borderlands 4 was set in a new planet, the game features an all-new cast. It also offered an opportunity for the art team to create landscape distinct from those on Pandora, with art director Adam May describing Kairos as a "high-tech but lo-fi" setting.

Just because space is cheap doesn't give devs an excuse not to even remotely try to optimize their games and their game sizes. You can make your same argument for why games are running worse.
>just get a better card lmao
The games don't graphically look like they should tank hardware from even five years ago but they do. Things just run worse. DLSS and framegen is only making that worse, too, because devs can assume people will use fake resolutions and fake frames to force the game to run at a playable FPS. I have a 3080TI, it can't run some unreal 5 games past 60 fps but here we are. Things just run worse. There's no excuse for it.

Exactly. It's not even about hating the loot loop or the general structure-those are still serviceable. But when every single story beat is wrapped in nine layers of obnoxious quipping and the pacing grinds to a halt every five minutes so some side character can scream into your eardrums about sandwiches or memes from 2011, it stops being fun.
BL3 feels like someone tried to speedrun burnout during development. They wanted to make The Biggest Borderlands Everβ„’, but forgot that bigger isn't inherently better, especially when the writing department is doing bad improv over a tired script.

The games would have been better with minimal-non-existent story like Dark Souls but if they kept the same like I guess visual aesthetic. Borderlands 1 having the vault hunters barely speak was a good touch of this, but as someone said in this thread Borderlands 1 kind of had the same cringe reddit humor as 2 they just dialed it back a bit, it would be better if that stuff was dialed back a margin of 10 even compared to Borderlands 1.

There was a clear regression in the writing.
The Borderlands 1 base game was pretty tame. Basically Mad Max with some dark humor, and almost completely devoid of voice acting.
However, all of the DLC expansions are super wacky. You have the Halloween themed one with the zombies, the one where a toddler bosses around the final boss and the Claptrap revolution.
Then Borderlands 2 came out, they spent 10 times as much on voice acting and everything has the same tone as the werewolf with a macaroni hat from the non-canon Halloween themed expansion.
