I work 5 minutes from Gearbox, I go to their coffee shop sometime. I should go see if its a zoo over there at the coffee shop downstairs. They seem to love tabletop games because they just have a big collection of tabletop games you can play

Also I guess that's all of the Sirens then, until new ones to replace Steele and Angel are born/grow up.

I thought the kid is a new Siren, but the oldest the new ones could be are 10 and 5 and she looks older than that to me.

Maya just found some kid and is being a cool big sister teaching her the ropes of Vault Hunting.

The kid could be a siren, there's six. Steele-spawn would be 10 at the oldest and Angel-spawn would be 5, but those two plus Lilith, Maya and Ms Machamp is only five.

Still, I'm fine with Maya taking an apprentice vault hunter who is totally normal.

"normal"

The Brother isn't a siren (males literally can't be), but apparently he does seem to have the ability to drain Siren powers? At least that's what it kind of looks like, in that trailer, Lilith got her powers sapped.

Only one of the baddies is a Siren. People are saying they're twins, and that the brother has some access to his sister's powers, but not at a real Siren's level. The last Siren is one of the playable characters. Based on the trailer where Lilith is down in the dirt without her tattoos. I think the villains steal her powers to boost the brother.

The kid with Maya was also in the teaser from yesterday. I'm getting a real master-student vibe.

Still, if the sister is a siren, then that means the six sirens currently would be Lilith, Maya, Punchsiren, Villainsiren, Steel^2 and Nu-Angel, so unless the kid is Super Steeltendo (and I'd agree she looks too old to be 10) or the belief there's only six is wrong, then she's not one.

Somebody on Twitter pointed out the ten year difference between BL1 and 3 might actually be in "Pandora Years", which might be a lot longer then 365 days.

Also it's not like Gearbox haven't done some age fuckery in the past, like when they had to quickly insert a clause into Gaige's story that it totally took years for her to travel from her home planet to Pandora so that she'd be 18 and Tannis' cringey as hell "my bed, standing offer" line wouldn't have her offering to gently caress a schoolkid.

So storywise, do you think this game is going to have parts set in a different solar system? Borderlands 2 ended with a map of other vaults in the galaxy waking up, and the Pre-Sequel had the alien warning that more vault hunters would be needed. It looks like punk Siren and her douche brother are leaders of the Children of the Vault, that cult that left all the symbols around in the past games. Are they gonna try and explain why there's so many psychos and why they got all mutated and wear uniform Jason masks?

I definitely think the game will span different planets. That sleek future city doesn't look like anything that should be on Pandora and one of the splash text is, "your friends are here to save the worlds"

Rewatching the trailer on my actual gaming monitor, why did they only upload a 4k30 source. I swear to god if they still have cut scenes at 30fps I'll be so pissed.

The model movement is very good in the UE4 engine, fluidity and physics look better than the UE3 engine they were using for BL2 + TPS.

e: while i'm still here let's talk how David Eddings has a suspicious gap in employment since February. Claptrap might get his original VA.

It doesn't scream "next gen borderlands" visually and Pitchford does not look well enough to be the voice for this game. I didn't feel any excitement in the announcement at pax and the trailer itself seemed thrown together. Everything about this looks cheap. I really hope I'm wrong because I wanted borderlands 3 to exist, right up until I saw the trailer.
