Comment on Hands-On: Borderlands 4 wants you to forget Borderlands 3 ever happened

  1 and 2 were legitimately good games.

  Pre-Sequel was terrible, 3 was better but still not good.

  Can’t say I remember enough about the Tell Tale game to have an opinion which may also very well be an opinion. ;)

    3 was rough, borderlands shouldve figured out how to present the story with gameplay by now, you end up taking an hour detour where you do nothing often

    1 wasn’t quite polished enough for me, but 2 was a lot of fun. The writing for the other two was horrendous, but I played through 3 for the gameplay loop; I would just turn off audio for a while when they talked too much. The Telltale game is fine for what it is, but their games are all exposition hallways.

    I’m not getting 4 until it’s $60 or less - if then.

      It has Denuvuo; I wouldn’t get it if it was free.

        Eh, I’d claim it for free, but wait until Denuvo was gone before playing it.

        On console, Denuvo isn’t an issue. :)

      I feel like 1 had the best vibe, 2 had the best story (but also the worst balance) and 3 had the most fun vault hunter designs.

    I certainly remember getting some meaningful and surprising twists in the Telltale game, at least.

    First Telltale game was very good and was one of my favorite Telltale games. Didn’t hear great things about three second one.

      I just started the second one, which didn’t involve Telltale other than the general format. So far, it’s awful. But I’ll also stick it out, because I have a feeling it’s going to be canon, and I came this far through the series.
