I Hate That I'm Addicted To Boring Video Game Challenges

Kotaku: I'm having the same, recurring nightmare of late. It's one of those stupid ones where something that's normally inane and innocuous becomes unreasonably horrible.Here's what happens: I'm in Pandora, out on a mission—to kill someone, probably—when I notice something. Maybe it's a a box or a locker. And the second that I notice that, everything else fades away: there is only the lootable object.

Here's the problem: Borderlands 2 has a ridiculous number of lootable things. Like, they're just everywhere. And even if I loot them, next time I boot the game up, there they are again. Full. Waiting to be opened. So I do it again, and again, and again. It never ends.

That picture... He is one serious Nintendo gamer lol! With a face like that, he must be playing Ghosts 'n Goblins or Battletoads...

"I'm having the same,

I still remember when i started gaming.
I used to wake up during the night with a headache, a sore neck, blurry eyes, dizziness and twitching fingers.
Ah, the good old days.

And this isnt why games kinda suck nowadays because they lack fun things to do even GTA4 is one of them which took me by surprise back then cause GTA games always had many fun and diverse things to do.

Do deveplopers know why they make their games like that? are they having fun making those boring stuff that always feels like a chore to play.

I Sure Hope The Next Borderlands Is A Lot Like Borderlands 2

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."

TheNamelessOne42d ago

What? You didn't love the cringe writing that 3 had?

pwnmaster300042d ago

Playing it now and it’s not so bad, but I’ve just started so maybe it will get worse

DustMan41d ago

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.

Demetrius41d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot42d ago

I'm curious how they are going to do the Siren since they've kind of wrote themselves into a corner regarding the lore.

gold_drake42d ago

well, im sure the last eridium slab is the answer to that. either mystery or villain

-Foxtrot42d ago

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).

Terry_B41d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake42d ago

it will probably be alot like wonderlands, since that is the last borderlands game

but we'll see soon

Terry_B41d ago

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.

RaidenBlack41d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal41d ago

I would love a new game in the series, or a remake/remaster of the first three games.

RaidenBlack41d ago

I'd want them to do the 4th part and just end the story of Baker Company.
