Gearbox Software's Randy Pitchford: I'm just one guy, you know?

Player Attack: Randy Pitchford is a bit of a show pony. The man in the velvet jacket worked as a Hollywood magician while in college, and will happily perform card tricks for just about anyone who asks. But, it seems, he's getting a little sick of people promoting Gearbox Software's many gaming releases as simply "a Randy Pitchford production".

And I am 14 men, 3 women, and a dog in the shape of a cat, you know?

Cant he hire someone for the job then?

vallencer4298d ago

Why hire someone to do the job he's doing when he's perfect at doing it?? People just think of him as the face of gearbox and what not because they only see him and he's always excited...its contagious haha.

FinaLXiii4298d ago

Im just saying he could split his tasks with someone else after all he´s the president of gearbox.

Usual reminder that a company is more than just one person. It's a pretty standard and fair reminder to make but sometimes it feels a little conceited.

Could be worse, Randy... you could be turned into the next "Jade Raymond..."

Yes, I know that was more Ubisoft's fault than hers, but it was still annoying as hell.

Geeze..Borderlands, Halo, Minecraft, and TF2..i just don't have enough time, hands, or eyeballs..

Hopefully, they fired the entire writing team after B3 cause that dialogue was truly atrocious.

jeromeface208d ago

doubtful... this is gearbox we're talking about.. Randy thinks everything the studio does is gold because he has a bad concept of reality

FFS make something else. If you can't make anything new, at least bring back Brothers In Arms or something.

I know it will never happen (for obvious story reasons that's happened) but I wish we could play the original Vault hunters again with new abilities you could choose to develop in a skill branch. Never really felt I could get behind most of them after the first game, especially move wise. Lilith's phase walk will always be the best to me.

Speaking of Lilith, I'm kind of wondering how they'll get around the whole Siren thing since they wrote themselves into a corner saying there's "only 6 Sirens in the entire universe" and now thanks to Borderlines 3 they apparently pass on their abilities meaning once we see each of 6 powers available that's it, no new brand new ones. I don't know why they don't just say there's more than 6 since all of them in the ENTIRE Universe just conveniently coming to Pandora is a bit strange.

BrainSyphoned208d ago

That's super easy to get around. Each person that has the skill could have their own personal spin on it. There could be a new power that morphs them into something else. One of the weapon manufacturers could experiment on 5 of the Sirens and the 6th would have to fight a horde of siren powered bad guys to rescue the others. Fiction has been there and done that with power more complex or simple thousands of times before.

As for revisting the first game? That would be totally unlike the gaming industry to reboot a series...
