One concern I have based on the trailer is that the game more or less looks analogous to what it looked like in 2012. Not aesthetically, of course the art direction would have to stay consistent, but in terms of making the most out of modern GPUs. It "feels" like the sequel has to do some serious bells and whistles innovation to justify the wait. Otherwise it's 100% a content play, essentially a giant mod of BL2, which is fine with me, but my own's expectation for the sequel was different.

The lighting looks nicer but theyre still allergic to bumpmapping which is why everything looks so flat, and honestly the big black lines on everything just accentuate that

All I want is for you to have the character signature power really early on and not have the exact same chunk of gameplay with no powers at the start for each character as the intro to the game because it made replays suck hard.

Honestly I’m super okay with the graphics not being super updated if it means the sacrifices to enemy density, inventory size, and the loot system from 2 and TPS are not there

Pylons posted:I think the bigger issue is figuring out what's good or not at a glance. [.....] whereas [.....] Borderlands 1/2/TPS have all been pretty great about it. You are right that the ability to compare what's new with what you have is a gigantic factor. Boarderlands 1/2/TPS has those god damned cutesy-wutsy flavor text bonuses on the higher end guns. God I hated having to go to a wiki because I couldn't quite figure out what had changed compared to a normal gun. Some had obvious effects, but most were completely opaque.

Try every gun, if you don't understand check the borderlands wiki. Some people toss away blue stuff like the pimpernel/sandhawk/3dd-1e[tps] without realizing they are literally top tier gear.

Yeah but it's super lame to kill the momentum of getting an interesting item by having to go to a third party site outside the game by alt-tabbing or using a second computer or your phone or whatnot. I'm sure there are people that enjoy the task of deducing what exactly they do; but for the love of god man, have a npc you can pay money to state it's effect plainly or something, for the people that just want to god drat know.

Considering how old the original cast look, Moxxi has grey hair now, I wonder what the timeframe is between this and BL2, it has to be at least 10 years right?

I hope they have BL1 style level scaling and not the joke "unload my entire stash of ammunition into a rabid nightstalker that oneshots me" level scaling in BL2.

so that leak said Laser and Ice would not be returning, but there's definitely cryo shots and lasers in the trailer edit: there is also one shot in the trailer which has a purple color but who knows if it's actually slag  Arcsquad12 posted:I hope they have BL1 style level scaling and not the joke "unload my entire stash of ammunition into a rabid nightstalker that oneshots me" level scaling in BL2. krieg laughs at your level scaling, and at the fact that you use ammunition at all!

On paper slag was an interesting concept, the classic debuff an enemy to increase your damage tactic but wonky level scaling and the fact UVHM made it mandatory just made it incredibly annoying to deal with. Again there's a reason Salvador has the Grog Nozzle surgically attached to him and everyone specced Maya's phaselock into dealing aoe slag damage.

So those of you that know me know I'll be all in on this.  Not sure about the new Siren though, if she's gonna be melee based, seems a bit meh. Though to be fair traditionally there's usually 2 out of 4 characters I don't really get on with. Needs more EXPLOSIONS
