the fact that a videogame i dont like is the only thing that generates enough hate to make me serious post in GBS should probably make me evaluate my life, but im just going to try and get an s-rank in ground zeroes.

its a 100% pure skinner-box that adds absolutely nothing to the shooter OR arpg genres. its drop system that is completely hosed for the sake of artificially enhancing the life of the game, its godawful sense of humor, and its floaty unsatisfying controls are just the farts following the epic diarrhea bomb that is its creatively bankrupt core system.

Borderlands 1 was neat for mixing a first person shooter with the loot lust of Diablo and wow but I played the first game a lot so when the inevitable million sequels hit I had already had my fill.

Hipster is not a meaningful term. You should not worry about how it is used.

Borderlands is fun-with-friends despite being a bunch of samey places populated by obnoxious characters with unskippable cutscenes.

yea well weed makes all games playable.

borderlands 2 was really loving good with some beers and friends over. it's one of the better co-op games around just to shoot poo poo and laugh at with some buds.

singleplayer was really borin' tho so don't play it if you don't have friends to play it with imo

the first tweet is bitching about farcry 3; a very poorly written game that hid behind that fact by pretending it was ~~deep~~. anthony burch wrote borderlands 2; a very poorly written game that relied heavily on reddit memes for humor.

bl2s humour was (e: mostly) fine, again i played it mostly intoxicated but it was rather amusing.

the real crime was the pre-sequel was a hot cash grabbing garbage piped right out of randy pitchforks rotten rectum. also, did anyone mention gently caress randy pitchfork? gently caress randy pitchfork

Got it, thank you. Also farcry3 never pretended it was deep, game was just a stupid as gently caress comedy/action joyride the whole way through.

There is a mission where you gotta burn down weed fields eith a flame thrower while you hallucinate and crazy reggae music plays lol

it is totally understandable why you (or loving anyone) would think farcry 3 didn't take itself seriously, but the hilarious thing is the writer came out afterwards and tried convincing everyone that farcry 3 was ACTUALLY an incisive comment on stories in videogames and nobody was getting it.
