Do we have any info on how long the game actually was in development? They probably already worked on it before Battleborn, right? Even with 4-5 years of time it doesn't look like it and i'm not talking about the graphics alone, though i still don't understand why none of the tech they showed in that demo made it into the final game.

Two of my friends are huge into them but they're the same people who think MMOs are good.

Fuckin hell

>Borderlands 3 is The Family Circus by way of Spencer's Gifts, a game with long, earnest quests about how darn good coffee is punctuated by gore and gun violence. Borderlands 3 walks by dog poop, points at it, and laughs, and then sets it on fire. Borderlands 3 stays up until 11:30 pm drinking soda and googling crass Flash animations, taking detailed notes.

It's stuck in the late '00s, when surface level vulgarity was enough to qualify as edgy—Borderlands 3 is seriously obsessed with turds—and when the series was first conceived. It's stuck in a time when memes lasted months rather than days, when referential humor was still a novelty and not exhausting, when you could point at something the slightest bit abnormal or gross and call it a joke. Simpler times, not necessarily better times.

Already have a 4-man ready for pirate coop, just like BL2.

I'll sum it up for you then:
kuchera thinks it's basically a rehashed BL2 which makes him yawn.

i don't know how to break this to you user, they removed the LAN option in the BL2 goty re-release. I don't think BL3 will have it.

They made another borderlands? What the hell.

If it's running off of EGS' networking, that shouldn't be a problem either. Satisfactory can connect to legitimate copies over the internet as long as the client had the same update as the host.

You asked if i was a fan of gearbox or the series, i just said i only played one borderlands title which happened to be made by someone not gearbox. Not that the scene was from it. Not even telltale was that on the nose

I never understood the point of Borderlands. If you want to play an mmo, just play an mmo. Borderlands has no enticing post game content, and the feedback loop grows stale after a single playthrough because of this. Like, if you're playing games for a humorous story... well, stop playing games. If you're playing for gameplay, there are about a half dozen shooter mmos that offer better content. Borderlands fulfills a shitty niche that people try so hard to force themselves to like. You are not missing a damn thing by skipping this game.

You're a special case of autist, aren't you?

>had co-op

But now what's old is new and everybody from stuff like Bethesda-published developers to smaller scale indie stuff to whatever the fuck Ion Fury counts as, good FPS mechanics are back in vogue.

>Borderlands feels corporate
Well I'll be damned...

I liked the shooting, colors, characters and did some modding. Never farmed or grinded. Just a lot of 1-30 and 1-50 playthroughs messing around wasting my time. 600 hours in BL2. But Jack isn't even in 3? He was a big part of what made the game good. I really liked those edgy and cringe whatever you wanna call those jokes.

>what are phrasal verbs with prepositions
that's some C1 level shit

there is no diablo-like FPS mmo, aside maybe from destiny but it was a console exclusive until 2017 and sure as hell wasn't around during the time of borderlands 1, and yes I did disregard the rest of your post, because if you think a couple of RPG elements makes a game automatically an MMO then you are retarded, or you are going to tell me 4 player coop can be considered "massive multiplayer"

Oh no no no no no

Epicbros, where do we go from here?

So many reviewers refer to him as HE, do you think they will get banned on Borderlands forums?

Attached: fl4k_mural--1364x2046.jpg (1364x2046, 2.26M)

So exactly like borderlands one and two

Because film critics are holistic. You don't see too many of them breaking down shit the same way you see
>Music: yes/10
>Gameplay: exists/10
>Story: lesbians/10
>Total: 8.5/10 it's okay
And you don't hear about an actor not getting residuals because his film wasn't certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

It helps that most film reviewers also don't use a 10-point/100-point metric and most use a 5.0/4.0-scale. Not very nuanced but it gets the message across since they're selling a product that consumers buy for anywhere from $1 to $10+ for more expensive viewing experiences, and will deal with in a manner of hours, not over the course of days or months.

The other half of it is that games journalism struggled to fund itself in the early days since it rose out of a niche hobby. So the only people willing to fund games magazines were the publishers buying ad space in the magazines critiquing their games. Obvious conflict of interest there. This is why Mountain Dew and Doritos took off as meme fuel for gamers. Because they were one of the first in the 21st century outside of fast food to do big gaming-related projects like putting Halo/COD codes on drinks or buying ad space in magazines.

So the big ass 10 point/100 point system gave them a way out by just giving free points to a functional game(seriously what the fuck is the point of or difference between any score between 1-6/10), then playing around with the 70-90 range to say a functional game is this degree of good.
Seeing game reviews in shit like Time or Newsweek or Forbes, or reading about Smash Ultimate characters in the Washington Post still weirds me out.

Attached: 76640560_p0.jpg (900x1168, 259K)

reviews are shit in general.

people trashed Chappelle for his offensive jokes and praise far worse comics.

>new IP scores 84
VS
>established IP scores worse than prior installments
How is this so hard to grasp? You can enjoy BL3, but consensus is that it's worse than the last two entries. The fact that they're headed on a downward trajectory is what's bad - not the score itself.

>Why would you care about the story?
Because I'm sure it's exactly like 2 and pre-sequel where you have to sit around doing nothing while the characters talk at you for 5 minutes every single mission, and it has an abundance of cutscenes no one cares about. The writers for these games love to jerk themselves off and hold the audience hostage while they do it. They might as well write something interesting then, but it looks like they fucked that up.

COLLECT POOP LOL

Both are probably enjoyable games but people shit on reviews because of favoritism/bias.

In general, a lot of games are overrated.

But Astral Chain has an 88.

it's perfectly clear, you're just apparently unfamiliar with the colloquialism

>Early Borderlands made fun of midgets, retards, and fat people
>Borderlands 2, Tales From, and Pre-Sequel push the series into a boring woke direction

the point is, lots of average games are overrated.

Have they finally included the option to have quest markers on for multiple quests at the same time? Recently tried replaying BL2 and the backtracking would be a lot more bearable if at least I could see all the shit I'm supposed to do in the vicinity, without going into the menus and cycling though shit manually.

Even better for me since I plan on playing with my brother and sister and we all share an apartment anyways.

That user is implying that he's pirating it because it's on Epic Store, how is he part of a cult?

I said the same about Bioware and they are still alive.
Have more faith in the resilience of shitty devs backed by lots of money.

Film review has a tradition in art critique and when it hit the “shill” period instead of falling the french and italians raised the standard.

Video game publications were born as advertising and actively worked to stay that way.

lol no

>Have they finally included the option to have quest markers on for multiple quests at the same time?
pretty sure you could do this in the presequel

BL3 is a success since EGS bought exclusivity. So they'll get the "no matter what" money plus whatever they make from the year later steam release.

>"A few quests: I collect brown rock specimens (poop) for a guy obsessed with brown rock specimens (poop), Claptrap needs help building a 'friend' who is clearly a feminine robot for his creepy private purposes, I plant dynamite in a massive poop dam to save a farm, I help a guy open a burger joint while he yells about burgers a lot, I help a guy escape from a porta-potty for a poop-spewing rocket launcher—it's borderline unbearable."

pretty funny, but you reminded me that Yea Forums is full of capeshit so now i'm annoyed

Mass Effect Andromeda was technically a financial success. Battleborn tanked horribly. It's not until the sequel that it reflects the diminishing quality of the franchise, so BL3 will still do well but BL4 might be looking like a lot less.

That money means less to a AAA team than it does to an indie. They might have even fucked themselves out of more money by not launching on Steam first.

this is the funniest post I've seen this month, I actually laughed out loud

If I didn't know any better, I'd think that was actually in one of the games

The only reason to ever play borderlands is to kill shit with cool guns and crazy abilities and go looting with your friends. You laugh at maybe 1/10 jokes and groan at the other 9, skip the dialogue and go through the world blowing shit up, upgrading along the way.

Any of you who played any differently are retards

what does "less kid friendly" mean? Would it still have the same trashfire gameplay? Then no, I would not buy it. Wouldn't even pirate it.

for you

Literally any book about learning how to drive

The review says you cant skip it though.

Probably because in those other games it was a one-off joke quest or (in the case of Conkers) a boss fight.
In BL a ton of the quests have dumb shit like that, so it gets tiring.
Having some moments of lighthearted fun in a depressing post-apocalyptic world like Fallout isn't the same as having a constant barrage of hit-or-miss jokes and tons of unlikable characters who all feel like they were written by the same person and have the same personality.
Kind of like what's been happening with Always Sunny and Archer in recent seasons, where they run certain jokes into the ground (fucking phrasing) and turn them from somewhat annoying to downright fucking painful.

How many doe?

>skip the dialogue
you mean the thing Borderlands has never let you do?

keep in mind that the majority of Yea Forums does not have any friends

That but a major difference in favor of those games is you're not bashed over the head with Borderlands' godawful dialogue constantly sucking it's own dick for being so clever
>HAHA CLAPTRAP IS DEPRESSED AND HE'S ANNOYING SO FUNNI
>DUDE TANNIS IS EGOTISTICAL
>DUDE MARCUS IS OBVIOUSLY GREEDY AND ONLY CARES FOR HIS BUSINESS

>cool guns
You mean mostly functionally identical guns that don't matter because all you still do is watch a healthbar go down?
>crazy abilities
Which I can't enjoy until I actually level up and even that is slow and boring

Borderlands is trash as far as it's FPS mechanics go.

Every time I see this image I can hear the words being read in scooter's voice almost perfectly

There's no female deers in driving books you bufoon

If I want a game to play with friends to go looting and make crazy shit I'll just play Dying Light, since not only does it have better looting and crafting than BL, but it has these great things called mod tools, so I can ALSO play tons of modded modes and maps and campaigns with my friends, which I have.
BL is just kind of boring.

Play BL2 and you'll find out why.

Okay dear

Generally you can only trust game journos when they say something is mediocre. If they say something is great you can bet it will be shit, and vice versa.

I can't believe God Hand shifted Yea Forums's mentality into this dumb kind of contrarian mindset

but Alien Isolation is great

Ironically the people who like WoW and MMOs are the same people who like trash like BL, so it checks out.

Name a single game with an above 90 metacritic from the last generation that you actually like.

moreso in game reviews cause the reviewers are paid shills.

Journos LOVE walking simulators, though. They get through in half dozen hours and add one more review to their quota.

NieR.

and this is why im skipping this trash heap
1 was okay because it was fresh, trying something relatively new and it was quick and to the point
2 ramped that shit up to 11 and was atrociously awful

>84
OH NO NO NO

Have you ever tried pressing the B button?

>NieR
That's a 68 on metacritic

>even with the money they saved by going to epic, 84 was the best they could pay for
Oh Jesus.

not that guy but what the fuck does anyone want to play MP in these games for? They literally have WoW-level of quest design and boring PvP so you may as well go to an MMO where they at least tried to make it fun to play with other people.

I played BL2 with a friend and it was legit just the same thing as grinding in WoW leveling but with boring guns instead.

Tony B left Gearbox a while ago. He's writing the "story" for LoL these days.

Nier Automata has an 88 on PS4 and an 84 on PC.
They don't even bother listing the Xbone version.

That's fine. As long as the game works and has solid co-op, I expected the score to be like this. It's not a 10/10 masterpiece. Myself, and people I know, play this game because of the co-op. Not the story or whatever, that's all background noise to get some laughs or something to do.

You get a full squad and enjoy. The only question is if it's worth $60 for that alone. Maybe, maybe not, but due to the lack of TRUE co-op games it may be.

I don't get why people are being intentionally inflammatory as if Borderlands is this prestigious masterpiece game.

They bullied us so we bully back

>but due to the lack of TRUE co-op games it may be.
What?
Every other fucking game nowadays has a shitty tacked on co-op mode.

I can kinda understand the levelcap one but all the others is just stupid. Micro transactions and post launch dlc just aren't the same thing no matter how kuch you personally feel like it should of came with the game which is iffy

Journos are shit period.

Give them a game that's more complex than a walking Sim and takes longer than 2 hours to finish and your game is guaranteed to have a shit score.

Fuck these incompetent muppets.

this setting would legit be god tier for little kids but then you see the absolute spergmaster inside, jesus christ randy stop failing m8

So in other words it averages out to ~87 across all 3 versions.

Was this some kind of parody-skit or is his son literally this fucking sheltered and spoiled?

Is this true? I remember this guy from Ash what are you playing youtube series.

>BAD TOO MANY WORDS GRRRR

It isn't bad because too many words, its bad because EVERY LINE OF DIALOGUE is like this, and it takes one joke and runs it so far into the ground it comes out the other side.

That's not even true

Whenever you score a game on a 10 point scale you should consider where it falls on a 5 point scale.
3/5 is considered ok to pretty good in movie terms but a 6/10 for a video game is a fucking joke.

Yes

"Brevity is the soul of wit."

The consensus I'm seeing is that the writing is a dramatic step down from BL2 and Tales from the Borderlands, and missions are pretty bland and repetitive, but the gameplay itself is the best the series has ever had. I'll probably end up getting it then, because I put a couple hundred hours into BL2 and I spent most of those hours with dialogue volume turned to zero and listening to a podcast instead or something.

The irony is that people who quote that literally misses the very point he was making

>"lol they're genderless actually ;)"

When will finally have a purely good looter shooter? Shadow Warrior 2 was great but I'm pretty sure that was a flop.

Modded Borderlands 2 with muted sound is pretty good

Annnnd i still gonna buy it

It's Eric "Say It To My Face" Cain. Ben Kuchera is a little bitch nigga. And the game sounds exactly like I've expected, a fucking Borderlands 2.5 with more aged references and busywork fetch quests.

Polonius, the character speaking that line is by far the dumbest character in any of his works, and his entire role basically boiled down to saying aphorisms that are either off by a word, or entirely unrelated to the situation at hand. Basically a gag character. Meanwhile Hamlet, the sharpest wit of the play is long-winded at every turn yet full of wit.
Hell, shaky himself wrote pages on pages with "wit" because witwas the soul of wit, no matter how long it lasted to him.
Besides, attributing the quote to Shakespeare rather than the fictive buffoon is like saying "Only your hatred can destroy me" was a statement by George Lucas as a position he holds.
Tl:dr people who quote it hasn't read the play thus miss the context of the speaker, ironically becoming the very joke character themselves by thinking they're smart for saying that line.

I just like saying it to make people mad.

Using "it" as a pronoun three times within a single clause makes your post have more awkward phrasing than any other post in this thread. Consider being more specific when referencing nouns, and perhaps take a few more English courses to brush up on your grammar, ESL retard.

No shit, it's comparing a generic line to spastic queerbox dialogue

>autists think that is "normal"
Okay, how high on your own ass fumes are you right now?

>Like they have an insecure 12 year old filter for everything

This is the most accurate summary of Gearbox writing.

Imagine self-censoring to the point you can only make jokes about poop, because anything else would offend people

I love it when autists like this expose themselves as autists by thinking that the average person is going to make cringeworthy jokes and give an over-the-top explanation instead of just saying "Hey, I need you to go to X and get me Y."

Artist CG, not a game.

please tell me lilith fucking dies

so the same as 2 and pre-sequel

Sorry autist, but normal people have personalities, not just reading from a bland script their brain feeds them like you do. Good job outing your inability to see the difference between a lack of personality and full wacky as the two only sides. Befitting of a retard incapable of tonal change.

This. It's why terms like "shitlord" exist, because they're too afraid to mock anything else.

6/10
Good shit

Jealousy and being scared of success.

Normal as in it's just giving you the premise of the line, it's not like it's attached to a character or anything dumbfuck. Meanwhile the exaggerated obnoxious queerbox dialogue fits almost all Memelands characters.

Unskippable too, by the way. Like why don't you niggers just read a book? I want to play a computer game, not waste time with bullshit, waiting for characters to exhaust thei spiel just so I can finally backtrack to the same fucking area I've been to 5 times already. That isn't fun, whether you're playing by yourself or with friends.

Such a bland and predictable reply. Befitting of an autist without any identity or personality.

Apparently reviewers got unfinished, unpolished, buggy, early BL3 versions of the game in a pre-loaded EPIC GAMES account made for them.

If that's the case, I'm surprised the scores are even as high as they are. I expect the game to be a commercial success.

Can't wait to play.

Have fun user!
