I haven't played the first game in forever so I won't comment, but Claptrap is lovably horrible in 2 (and the fact that the game doesn't really force him on you except for the first hour or so) and amazing to play as in TPS (purely for the added PC interactions)

Finally got around to completing this and it is just far and away the best thing Telltale has done, as well as the best writing there has been in a Borderlands game. Now trying to complete the Game of Thrones game in comparison and it is just such a slow slog in comparison. Obviously, Game of Thrones is a darker and less fast-paced world than Borderlands, but the characters in that just aren't as exciting to be around or memorable as the show, or this game.

The worst part of Game of Thrones to me is that the characters themselves could make for really good stories but they are trapped in a terrible story filled with forced cameos from show characters

I had that too and really liked it, it seemed thematically appropriate. Athena and August have petty much been with the crew since episode 1 and 2 so having them be in the end just made sense. While Janey was there, I feel like she had an appropriate conclusion to her story, and Zero/Claptrap cool but kind of ancillary to the story. Having Cassius there felt like an appropriate conclusion to his own mini-story.

I still fee as though if the cameo characters didn't dominate this as much the story would have been better. But I've ranted about that enough on the GoT Thread.

I was just telling my friends, if Pierre Shorette and Adam Hines aren't heading up Tales Season 2, it better be because they're hard at work on this, because that'd be a spectacular match of writers and material.

Shorette maybe, but Hines left to found his own studio. Check out Oxenfree if you want to see more of his writing. It's really good.

I actually just finished Oxenfree for the first time recently. It was OK but I wish it was a normal point-and-click adventure game because the side-scrolling walking simulator presentation doesn't really add anything except make you spend most of the game slowly zig-zagging across linear paths while voice acting plays with no options to fast-forward or skip, which is especially bad considering the game is made to be replayed. It'll nothing else, even if the actual story wasn't amazing it deserves a lot of credit for writing teenage characters that are believable without being insufferable or twee in the way that, say, Life Is Strange was.
