"Tales from the Borderlands" really reminds me of "Fiasco", a storytelling game published by Bully Pulpit Games. Each character in a Fiasco game is interconnected in some way to two other characters and has a certain desire that needs to be fulfilled or some object or location that they are attached to. As play proceeds, all the characters' simple plans collide into a colossal clusterfuck and hilarity ensues. As we've already seen, that pretty much describes this series to a tee. Oh, and take the shot.

It's only Episode 1, and we don't want to blow through our cash so soon. Cheap out and get the Psycho Mask.

When I played through "Tales", I played Rhys as being a little egotistical and naive(due to his sheltered life on Helios) but extremely loyal and protective of his friends. I figure if you could find a real friend in the shark-tank that is Hyperion, you'd treat said friend like gold. Fiona, I felt, should be a bit more pragmatic and a little rough around the edges. She grew up on Pandora, after all, and is well aware of how crappy people can be. She can play nice if it gets her what she wants, but she will not hesitate to drop a fool who stands in her way. Both characters changed during the story since it felt right for them to do so. That's what made "Tales" so awesome for me. It had flawed characters, but those flaws never made them intolerable and they could rise above them based on your choices. Well, that and the awesome music.

Crasical posted:Touchgoal! The shotgun is the same one Vasquez pulled on Rhys and Vaughn in the desert. I think they called it the Conference Call? It's kind of scarily impressive that Vallory just takes away the shotgun, kills Vasquez with it, and tosses it aside. She doesn't even try threatening Fiona and the others with it. She doesn't need to.

Fiona's discovery that she has "Sherlock Holmes Vision" is one of the cooler moments in this series. Not that there aren't cool ones to come, of course.

The finger-gun fight is hilarious, but also shows how sheltered and cut off from reality the people who work for Hyperion are. On Helios, the guns are imaginary and no one really gets hurt. On Pandora, the guns are real and people die.

Telltale Games has a retrospective for "Tales from the Borderlands" on Youtube. It's pretty neat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIMm0gN0H9c
