I have had this game on EGS for I don't even remember how long since they gave it away for free. Never actually played it because my brother, who is the biggest Borderlands fan I know, says it's absolute fucking garbage.
I bet it's still better than the movie, though.
It's the worst of the mainline games story-wise, for sure. The mechanics are fine.
Forget story and mechanics. How's the humour? That's the core of Borderlands.
Not good.
EXPLOSIONS!!!!!
Not very good
The only joke I remember laughing at was the pipes carrying "Coolant" and "Heatant".
Most likely. Better off replaying 2 or even the Pre-Sequel. The low-grav butt stomp feature is fun.
The Pre-Sequel is my favorite because of the new mechanics it has over 1 and 2. Can't judge the story much... I only paid attention to it in 1 lol
Which one had the gorilla things that the stuffy professor dude called "bonerfarts" in a fit of anger?
2
BL2.
The gameplay is really well done I think. As much as I love 2, the way you move in 3 makes 2 feel old and kinda slow. As long as you play solo it’s really fun, it’s the story that’s utter garbage but everything else is good.
I did an all achivs marathon of 1,2 and 3. 3 was such a damn slog that I couldn't bring myself to play pre sequel. The characters were all given so much extra cringe in an unenjoyable way. Ava and the twins are particularly bad to the point that they make god of war's rebellious phase atreus pleasant. I should have played pre sequel before, but I didn't have it so I went on to 3 and I think I'll be fine never playing a borderlands game again.
