Currently my biggest issue is that it just makes me wanna play Destiny instead. And that's taking the current state of that game into account

holy shit i can't believe it but they actually did it. a borderlands with good FPS gameplay. like almost rivalling D2 good. you can't quite "feel" the impact of every little perk like D2. but the general perk design is just different, in fact a lot of perks are more wholesale impactful than subtle gunfeel changes of D2 style, which is a lot of fun - like the underbarrels and weird shit like throwing a weapon instead of reloading. the ricochet launcher attachment is crazy strong.

the movement is just so seemless, dodging and sliding and gliding without interrupting key animations like reloading. and you can sort of "bunny hop" and keep a lot of momentum after dash/glide. i understand the criticism in some videos that melee and grapple are the same buttons, but i think bad players overstated it, the icon clearly closes in to show you getting in range (although grapple is a bit limited yeah)
the ordinance slot is great, even with all the heavy weapon options i'm actually just using throwing knives because they've been so fun.

enemies react and recoil from getting hit, sometimes you really ragdoll a fucker on headshot, or floating ones drop out of the sky, and bits get blown off.

the world, characters and content are a bit bleh, but it's at least not completely obnoxious like BL3. you can enjoy some humour and also some drama. i get open world fatigue very easily and mostly doing only main story, the pace is a bit relentless. but yeah, with the core gameplay feeling so good it's not so bad to be in constant intense combat arenas. will probably be a weak point in the long run though, i doubt the "endgame" will really be that good. it's not really a full live service mmo-lite kinda series i know.

overall really didn't think i'd be enjoying a BL game this much.

Release is 11pm CST on the 11th which is today. The game literally hasn't released yet. The only people playing it either got a physical copy early or got a review copy, or they're fags and set their steam location to new zealand and are using a vpn. If you're asking me if I'm retarded because I'm calling faggots fags for cheating the system to play the game early, no I'm not, I'm just salty that they can do that and no game company ever compensates for that.

this is the blandest shooter i have played in a very long time. like specifically the shooting and combat elements of this game are so boring and lame i almost can't believe it. every encounter is floaty hopping point and click with different colored bullets. no thought, enemies often too far away to even have interesting combat encounters with, point and click in a big stretched out map. my performance is fine, but the gameplay is awful.

mine is probably Rougarou, the Jakobs AR. it's semi auto, looks great, has that sort of Kel-Tec CMR 'weird hybrid of a DMR but a carbine' thing going on. so you can stand back and plink with it effectively, whilst it also does fine up close and spamming. can't go wrong with the satisfying Jakobs headshot sound either.

If you make a game about having lots of special effects tied to equipment and "magic abilities", then its better for them to be on a timer with infinite uses. So yes. It makes it much easier to balance their effect on gameplay rather than on how lucky you are with pickups, or use a skill bandaid to magically give you more grenades and other such things.

Will say my first complaints about the game are the lack of an FoV slider even with the day one patch, and on XsX there is zero reason for the quality preset to even exist. If you don't use performance even at 1080p you are retarded. Otherwise my first hour has been pretty solid and the game still looks great on performance preset.

UI feels overdone. Am glad I can crank sensitivity to "oh shit 'igger what is you doin" levels. Lack of FoV slider is a real pain in the ass, needs to be added immediately. Quality preset has no reason to exist on console at all in its current configuration, this game at 30fps is jank as fuck. Performance preset is butter smooth on XsX. Hard difficulty actually feels like a bit of a challenge.

Unless you've got a 9800x3d overclocked to the tits with a fast kit of ddr5 and the game on a 990 pro with a 3090ti/4090/5090 gpu, you're likely going to be limited to about 60 fps at most without using framegen. UE5 rapes cpu's and gpu's hard. Even with a top of the line setup like described you're probably getting 80fps outdoors and 100fps indoors.

They also really need to add an FoV slider. Badly. And work on some of the jank when it comes to aiming with a controller. Otherwise I think gameplay wise it's the best game in the series hands down. Storywise thus far I think it's better than 3 but not quite as good as 2 although 2 was lightning in a bottle and will never ever happen again. I don't regret the purchase and will be putting a shitload of time into the game especially after another round or two of patches.

I don't know why they even included a quality preset for XsX, it's unplayable. For anybody. Couldn't even hold 30fps at 1080p in the very first area at the beginning of the game. Performance preset is great and smooth and still looks really good though. For anyone on XsS or base PS5 I would not recommend buying this game as there's no way it'll run capably and maintain 60fps without it looking like it was made a decade ago at best.

So there are these Moxxxy machines near the boss fights which let you farm the boss, the old save and quit method is gone now. But... does it mean that the named enemies who aren't bosses don't drop stuff? I'm near the beginning of the game, I found a guy called (this flying creature)man, I guess farming him is pointless right? I dont even know if he respawns

BORDERLANDS GENERAL
I COME TO YOU NOW BECAUSE I PROBABLY REACHED LEVEL 25 ON 3 DIFFERENT CHARACTERS BUT NEVER ACTUALLY FINISHED BORDERLANDS 2

So I'm gonna play that shit, because no way in hell I can 1. afford 2. run Borderlands 4.

a) are there any mods? or anything of that nature that I might want?
b) does anybody have that one mod for BL2, it like runs in the background and tricks the game into thinking you have up to 4 players in your instance, so it auto scales the amount of health enemies have and the damage they do to be much higher, but also gives you more loot?

red tree black chick is potentially the most busted class they’ve ever released in a borderlands game. she gets a nuke move that, instead of self casting, can just apply overtime to all of her bullets making her gun damage just silly. they’ll probably nerf it, but it’s already pretty nerfed by the fact that you have to play a black woman.

i'm assuming thats warlock Vex and also assuming its purely using the stim and not firing off the blast.
seems bit of a fail in their design that the best thing you can do is just combat stim and keep shooting, but thats what i guessed when glancing at the build calculator before launch. but eh maybe thats fine, it is a game that mostly just shooting guns anyway.
the necro is still good for a lazier, safer playstyle, whilst the single entity big pet archetype is pretty much bad in almost every single game.

it's a very mild 5/10. you can tell the team working on the level design, the team working on the player movement and combat, and the team working on the enemy AI never once interacted and as a result the overall experience has 0 cohesion. nothing feels placed intentionally, or because it would be fun to interact with, but instead because it looked nice from a flying camera dev POV. all of the combat areas are WAY too big so instead of exciting action you have pointing and clicking at targets a mile away who have no response actions but to stand there and be shot. the whole thing comes off as a very good tech demo made by a class of college seniors for their final project.

As a fan of Diablo 2, I'm extremely familiar with this issue, yep. The people who replace them always say "we have so much love for this franchise's roots" but they love getting paid way more, or have their own ideas of how it "should" be. It'd be one thing to have all these old companies being shells of their former selves, but to also have no one really taking their place outside of a handful of solid indie devs (which can have their own problems, like Valheim being a runaway success and then doing actually nothing for 8 months while buying a horse) can be frustrating.

They kept saying it's between 2 and 1 but the way I see it, it's a new thing altogether. Game knows when to take itself seriously like 2 but the jokes aren't as jarring as BUTT STALLION and the timekeeper is refreshingly serious all the time this is a complete 180Β° from the twins.

So yeah it's better than 3 but I can't say if it's the best yet I think the second half of 2 is the best Borderlands story yet. You know, when Ronald gets kirked.

Pretty kino honestly. You can tell The Timekeeper is influenced by how much chaos he dealt with back in Pandora. So when he had enough power to control a whole planet, he went on to make sure that it's very civilized with strict order. And it worked, you can't convince me that things were bad before the moon showed up. The Firehawk once again ruins everything she touche and now the planet is fast tracking into becoming Pandora 2.0

I expected both to get zanier but they were kind of restrained. The obvious thing for the missile would be to blow up all the people it "made connections with", I thought that's where it was going. Then it didn't

i was actually surprised by some of it too. (as you sort of mention) the zaniness of the game is toned down from previous entries, so having the most ridiculous stuff all be kinky is noticeable lol. you'd think it would just be the side quests, but it bleeds main quests too

anyway, im disgusted or offended by it, but i see where youre coming from

not quite related but... the story is decent. it's (appropriately) formulaic and videogame-y, but has decent pacing for what they're working with. not offensively bad, or annoying. feeling positive enough about it so far.

the supporting cast is lacking at this point, but ive seen some spoilers and assume they're just not as frontloaded

2 has better gameplay than 1 undeniably and the classes are much better, so many useless skills in the skill trees in 1, in fact every action skill is mediocre until boosted in 1, Brick berserk was terrible for a shooting game, Lilith is nigh useless invisibility that ends in a shockwave only good with skill point, mordecai does its thing buts its boooooring most basic minion shit ever, and Roland's turret at least has shit going on with it but is massively outclassed by Axton's, but yes Borderlands 1 had a better world and story but thats basically it, also 2 has Loaders which are way better than Atlas

3's individual levels could have their own skyboxes and a cool landmark and some really interesting level design that you'd only get to see there, or would only work there because of the constraints of that level's overall shape and size
here everything is connected so all the weird pathing a unique level could have has to be smoothed out and sanded down so it doesn't break traversal to-and-from any point in the surrounding area

I thought they got rid of the mini-map because the full map was gonna be 3D like the new Doom games. Turns out, it's 2D like most open world games (who also have mini-map on the HUD).

Why did they get rid of it then???? The compass and radar combo is serviceable but if it ain't broke...

Can't believe I sunk 10 hours into playing Amon.
He fucking sucks and does not get better(red tree.)
Barely any skill synergy, pathetic passives, horribly undertuned action skills, and really cumbersome with the stiff/slow melee animations.

How they managed to take an idea of a cyberweapon-wielding space viking and completely fuck it up is almost impressive. Why not have his forge weapon be his melee during action skill? Slamming with hammers or cleaving with swords/axes has a lot more satisfying than spamming the same generic animation over and over. Even if the damage was still just as pathetic, at least it'd feel fun.

I really don't want to do that 10 hours all over again on another character, and only Rafa vaguely interests me.

i never said the writing was good, it was bad, it was a huge failure
the sidequests were good and the DLCs were good but nobody gave a shit because they were primed to not pay any attention because of how bad the campaign was
but if you're willing to give all the rest of 3 a chance it's very clear that 4 is an overcorrection in all the worst ways
nobody has any personality
the average level of comedy outside of sidequests is puns or characters being embarrassed about liking romantasy
they didn't replace the comedy with plot, they just removed the comedy and made the campaign script shorter

Gun sounds, no meme villains, side missions usually were fuck or walk, no one talking in your fucking ear for 4.5 minutes every time you took a quest, humor was paced rather than sticking to a marvel quip quota, it didn't have the shitslog that Liar's Berg is, Mashers, press Q to win.

>Aren't 1, 2 and Tales universally beloved?
Yes, they are. Especially 2 because, while it had wacky zany meme humor, it still knew how to shut up every now and then to let a serious moment be serious. In fact, the humor made the serious moments hit harder. Then the DLCs for 2 were mostly shitty moneygrabs created for every holiday (halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, valentine's, etc) that added nothing but more of the humor with no emotionally heavy scenes. People bought them anyway because the main game was so good and the creators went
>people are only here for the meme jokes
and so all subsequent games went all in on jokes. There was literally a jokes-per-minute quota for the writers. And after that some characters were sabotaged to push some diversity agenda. It has reached a point where people are retroactively viewing BL2 as the worst game for opening the floodgates. That said, I don't think the franchise will EVER get worse than New Tales.

Maybe this is a hot take but I thought the idea of the bandit clans uniting under one banner because they got introduced to the concept of an e-thot hilarious. Unfortunately Gearbox writers couldn't take gold and not turn it into coal.

timekeeper is like the single NPC with anything to him so far, it's actually interesting how he has the ability to directly control people but wants to watch what they do with the under-observation freedom he chooses to give some people
it's not groundbreaking but for Borderlands it is pretty neat

as for the Twins, they were unironically really good -- i swear to GOD they are actually great villains and acted and written well -- but the cutscenes had the shittiest direction i've ever seen in any game above single-A funding levels which neutralised all the dramatic potential they had
when they're doing dialogue during gameplay they're funny and mean and doing cringe streamer shit because they're villains using streaming as a means to their evil end
and then the cutscenes turn that effective hate into annoyance because the cutscenes don't know how to wield drama, and that makes you see them as annoyances with no intuitive meaning to the story

then there's the third act throwing away the sibling rivalry for le big bad kills-family meme villain
3 had a lot going for it and squandered ALL of it with bad pacing, bad cutscenes, and a bad third arc

So I'm a Borderlands tourist. Why are Sirens always female? Well, other than Gearbox thought "Siren" was a cool name for a magic character and when the second game came around they figured they could do a lot with a literal magic character and if it's called siren it has to be female. Like is there a lore reason why Sirens are always female?
Not that I want to give Gearbox any ideas. The next Siren is going to be transgender. He put on his mom's underwear, started masturbating and crying, wished he was a girl and mindblasted a hole in the wall.

The problem with the writing in 3 was that it wasn't COMPLETELY bad. It definitely wasn't good, but it left multiple openings to evolve into something great, and then just didn't.

I was literally so hyped for "new shiny thing" and the general hype around release and wanting a new game to play and Maya looking so good with her return, that when BL3 came out I was actually going to fucking buy it at launch (I never do this). But I held off for literally one more hour, which was enough for the twitch stream I was watching to spoil the death of Maya a mere 3 hours into the game.
