iXenon4477d ago

I wanted to add Shadow the Hedgehog to the list, but I was told he's not the same sort of "black"...

versusALL4477d ago

We need more black characters in video games.

Rico seemed racist towards the hellghast him self he just purely hated them. I mean I know they were there enemy, but they were suppose to take the leader from 2 alive he was like fuck that. He hated them because they were different RACISM.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast137d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine137d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast137d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman137d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast136d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman136d ago

it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me

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."

TheNamelessOne254d ago

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

pwnmaster3000254d ago

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

DustMan253d 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.

Demetrius252d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot254d 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_drake254d ago

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

-Foxtrot254d 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_B253d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake254d ago

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

but we'll see soon

Terry_B253d 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.

RaidenBlack253d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal253d ago

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

RaidenBlack253d ago

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