I think additional characters can let people play in a new way. I've played through borderlands a few times, to various levels of completion, because the game play is varied enough between the different characters that it can feel fresh. The difference between an assassin and a gunzerker is pretty big in terms of game play. Balance is sometimes an issue, like the assassin is harder to play on harder difficulties, but can present it's own challenge.

I think his logic here is kinda silly. I personally only dabbled with the Siren before Gaige the Mechomancer came out and from than on Gaige was my main. I found her game play much more fun and challenging despite her obvious flaws and weaknesses. I think there will be someone for me to play and enjoy DLC or not when I finally get around to player BL3 but still the excuse here is really flimsy.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here, first maybe fix all the glitches, slow texture loading, and frame rate problems. I love this game, fix the crap though, please

vallencer2108d ago

For me if they're not adding new characters I really hope they add new skill trees then to the existing ones. But I enjoyed kreig and gaige so to see no new characters is kind of a bummer.

rainslacker2108d ago

I'd be for new characters. I haven't gotten around to BL3 yet though, so I am not in any rush for them to do it. I'm not even sure if when they get around to releasing them if I'll still be heavily engaged in the game given the way I play games.

Lmao kind of a pathetic reason why tbh

CP_Company2108d ago (Edited 2108d ago )

for me, personally, i want more content more than new characters, because how many times you can play through the campaign? 1? 2? to grind the same missions? i will better get more content and enjoy it, i will better spend the time go through all the levels slowing, enjoy everything, and some grinding for better gear to develop my main character.

on the other hand, they are big studio, they have the power to work on content and characters in the same time of frame.

Spurg2108d ago

I stick to my main because I have invested a lot of hrs in that character. If they let me swap in another character but keep my level then more characters would be welcomed.

-Foxtrot2108d ago

I can see the point here to be honest, we're coming to the 4th game next (5th if you count the Pre Sequel) I'd rather they keep the best most original classes/designs for the new games then DLC.

INMATEofARKHAM2108d ago

They could always rework some of the previous hunters.

-Foxtrot2108d ago

I want old hunters playable but considering the fact they are lazy with having original dialogue with each NPC character resorting to the same old generic responses it would be weird to have playable characters with different histories with the people you meet yet have the same responses

I might get one in a couple years but I’m in no hurry. Nothing at launch I want to play.

60 fps Switch games with higher resolution makes it worth it to me.

badz14917h ago

you basically has no choice because it only has old games with ONE new exclusive and a scummy paid demo. old games are all you have and you fanboys are eating it up and let Nintendo get away with this.

If there are no shortages then why can't we just easily order a Switch 2 online, from Best Buy, Target, Newegg, Amazon etc. No shortages means we can get it by any means, online or in store.

kindi_boy11h ago

move your ass to the nearest Target or Best Buy and you'll find a lot of them.

shinXseijuro1d 11h ago

Maybe there’s shortages in Japan ? But they’re pretty much available lol

shinXseijuro1d 11h ago

But hey saying that creates more hype right !

Good-Smurf21h ago(Edited 21h ago)

There isn't one in US, I saw plenty posting pictures of it many stores in still have plenty in stock.
This is just them referring to stock situation mostly in Japan.
Sounds like he low key also spreading FOMO pressuring people to go out and buy one for no good reason?
It's not exactly flying off the shelves here in Thailand though, there's basically no real hype here at all other than the fanboys lining up for it the first few days.
You can easily order one right now in Thailand from all the official authorized stores, not out of stock at all.
The price of 17800 THB or around 550 USD here for a standard SKU and high game prices probably has a lot to do with it.

the standalone Switch 2 is more expensive than the PS5 slim in Malaysia and just $2 cheaper than the Disc PS5 Slim. what a rip-off

Ten Years Later - Still Going Strong: Dying Light: Retouched Update Releasing June 26

Hey Survivors! Tymon here, your favorite Dying Light Franchise Director.

It's been an absolutely wild month here at Techland! We're in the thick of what I'm calling the "Summer of Dying Light," delivering updates and big news across all three Dying Light games. Just a few weeks ago, we dropped the first gameplay for Dying Light: The Beast, revealed its release date, and kicked off pre-orders (if you haven't seen it, check out my last dev blog). I'm incredibly proud of what we're building with The Beast - it’s the culmination of more than 10 years of experience in open-world survival horror!

But here's the thing: we never forget where we came from. That's why, this week, we're not just looking forward - we're rolling out significant updates for both the original Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human. We promised to support our games for a long time, and we're committed to continuing that support, right through and beyond the launch of Dying Light: The Beast.
