How Borderlands 4 Can Move On From Handsome Jack

While Handsome Jack is an unforgettable addition to the Borderlands franchise, it might be time to let the egotistical maniac go in Borderlands 4.

UE5 Borderlands 4? Might be a while. We just got Wonderlands.
Unrelated but I really want the Brothers in Arms sequel from Gearbox, next.
Baker Company's story's continuation is long overdue.

XbladeTeddy969d ago (Edited 969d ago )

No, Earned in Blood was the last decent Brothers in Arms game, Hell's Highway was crap. Then the awful direction they tried before scrapping the series just said it all. Furious 4 or something it was going to be called . Gearbox don't know how to do those games right any more.

RaidenBlack969d ago

yea, you may be right ... don't want any Brothers in Borderlands from them now, do we

Terry_B970d ago

BL 3 moved on from Handsome Jack..and its story was super weak. Let Borderlands 4 continue where Borderlands 2 and BL The Pre-Sequel ended.

blackblades970d ago

Haven't played since BL2, I couldnt do the prequel one just wasn't feeling BL anymore. I say take a break from BL and do something else.

LordoftheCritics970d ago

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."

TheNamelessOne269d ago

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

pwnmaster3000269d ago

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

DustMan268d 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.

Demetrius268d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot269d 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_drake269d ago

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

-Foxtrot269d 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_B268d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake269d ago

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

but we'll see soon

Terry_B268d 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.

RaidenBlack268d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal268d ago

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

RaidenBlack268d ago

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

The Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak from the Gran Turismo series

Nissan Skyline from Need for Speed Underground

Motorcycle Steamroller from Dead Rising 3

And finally a car you never drive but saves your ass over and over : Honey Badger from COD MW2

Gardenia846d ago

I was thinking of Mad Max. That V8 felt really good to drive around in, especially with upgrades.

dumahim846d ago

No one liked the Batmobile in Arkham Knight. Top 10?

toxic-inferno846d ago

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.
