GR - "The first Borderlands boasted “87 bazillion” guns, and while that number’s completely made up, the game had plenty of weapons—but not as many as its newly released sequel, which offers a wider range of weapons than every other game on the market."
Ahmad from eXputer: "Borderlands 2's unrivaled storytelling is something that has to lean into the core elements of the next iteration in the Borderlands series."
Playing it now and it’s not so bad, but I’ve just started so maybe it will get worse
It's not bad. It's just hard to top Handsome Jack as an antagonist. I really enjoyed 3. It has the best gameplay of the entire series, and it holds the same vibe. Tiny Tina's Wonderland was a huge disappointment to me.
I'm curious how they are going to do the Siren since they've kind of wrote themselves into a corner regarding the lore.
well, im sure the last eridium slab is the answer to that. either mystery or villain
I meant more in terms of how they established only 6 Sirens can exist in the entire Universe...which was kind of silly to me as they seem to all end up on Pandora, and the Universe is a pretty big place.
Then there's now the fact, since Borderlands 3 retconed it, when a Siren dies she can transfer her power to the next Siren, they don't have to be born with it. This also means there's only 6 Siren powers which will end up being recycled as the franchise goes on.
Phasewalk (Lilith)
Phaselock (Maya / Ava)
Phasetrance (Amara)
Phaseshift (Angel / Tannis)
Phaseleech (Tyreen)
So there's only one power unaccounted for and I'm guessing it belonged to Commandant Steele. There was Queen Dido but she died and someone else like Amara, Maya or Angel could have gotten their powers so really it only gives them one more Siren before they need to start rethinking things going forward.
Either we get Phaseleech next or whatever power Commandant Steele had (kind of odd she never used it in her boss fight but you know).
it will probably be alot like wonderlands, since that is the last borderlands game
but we'll see soon
Most people do. But the people that create the games don't seem to understand that.
I bet it will be even worse than BL3 when it comes to story and character designs.
I would love a new game in the series, or a remake/remaster of the first three games.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.

And finally a car you never drive but saves your ass over and over : Honey Badger from COD MW2
I was thinking of Mad Max. That V8 felt really good to drive around in, especially with upgrades.
I don't know... It was a strange addition to the game, and the parts of the game where you had to fight in it were tedious. But driving it around Gotham felt brilliant.
And they say we don't cater to females in gaming...
pffft.
Just tried this a few times. Even if you don't care at all about the novelty of these guns, they are actually really damned good guns. It will cost a lot, but they're guaranteed purple guns that scale with your level apparently.
Be warned though, if you do decide to do this, sometimes you may only get one of the guns, and sometimes you might not get any of the guns, so just keep tipping her until she gives you them both. If you don't get ANY of the guns or if you only get one and waste a lot of money trying to get a second, then just press the playstation button and quit out of the game before it has a chance to autosave (autosaving usually just occurs whenever you move around, so try not to move if it doesn't work).
The stats on these guns are incredible compared to the best purple sub machine guns I've found.
I'm not gonna tip her anything. If there's one thing that left a real impression on me from borderlands 2 so far, it's my newly found gambling addiction. I had a 3 marcus heads in a row and that gave me my best sniper so far. Also, I had 3 vault symbols in a row which gave me a rediculous pistol for when I was level 13. I only just found a pistol better, and I'm level 22.
I think i'm gonna go to my local casino now and see if i'm as lucky there!! Thanks for the bankruptcy Gearbox!
Don't all guns vibrate when you shoot them?
