God I'm so tired of corpo-speak.

Just be honest and admit you're looking to strangle it for profit

Didn’t like 3, not optimistic.

I loved 3 and I'm also not optimistic.

I liked 3s gameplay so I’m cautiously optimistic for gameplay

I didn’t like the story, it had its moments, but the cons of the story outweigh the pros of the gameplay looking at the big picture

I liked the game unti it started making me do fetch quests to level up enough to continue to storyline

I played it on mute and it didn't really help

I think this is code for “we’re going to make sure the game sucks to own even if it’s good”

Borderlands 4 with gacha mechanics?

Yay!

[-] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I mean that's just borderlands isn't it.

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

Pre-order for 50 free pulls!

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Who’s doing the pulling?

Ew, ew ew ew! From Embracer to Take Two? That's a step back! Just put the studio out of its misery at this point!

2K, a subsidiary of Take-Two, published all the other borderlands. Based on that history, it'll probably be fine.

But based on "growth opportunities," it'll probably run the game.

Borderlands 3 was so bad that it didn't run on my PS4. It's so badly optimized that it would crash every 30 seconds. I installed and played it for 15 minutes and had about 4 crashes. Reinstalled and tried again, same shit. It is literally unplayable. Is it a good game? I have no idea, it wouldn't let me get far
