My biggest problem with BL3 was the baddies. I never played BL1 (I know, I’ll get to it). But BL2 with Handsome Jack, you just love to hate him he was such an onion (with layers). And Pre Sequel was forgettable. BL3 was SO much fun the gunplay was fantastic, and some of the side quests were pretty alright. I just hope BL4 is not a cringe fest zoomer humor.

I’m an absolute Borderlands slut so I am pumped for this. I really hope the monetisation scheme is fine and that they added some QoL features I’ve been wanting since 2012 (multi quest trackers?!) but either way I’ll probably play this.

That sure looks.

My body is ready

I was actually really excited by the pre-rendered cut scene that wasn’t cel-shaded. I thought they were going to ditch the cartoony aesthetic and try moving the franchise in a different direction. But then it switched to in-game footage, and it looks indistinguishable from footage of any previous BL game. Something about the art direction just looks like it’s stuck in 2012, and not in a fun way.

I just wanted to raid vaults for alien tech and be rich. Kinda hoped they would lean more into the vault hunting aspect but they dropped it entirely.
