I dunno, I loved Borderlands 2, but announcing the third game now after two Destiny games and two Division games (And Anthem I guess) feels like it is a day late and a buck short. A good part of Borderlands appeal was no one was really doing what it was doing, regardless of if it was actually doing it well. Now, I can’t really work up an emotional response except “Yup that sure looks like Borderlands”. Hopefully once they release some actual details I will get more excited about this.

I said come in! posted:Also, none of these games mentioned, are good. This genre maybe is not fun. Vakal posted:Krieg was the best thing to come out of BL2 and I hope he comes back as a DLC character again. Orange Crush Rush posted:Krieg should honestly just be ported wholesale into 3. Even if he was DLC again I'd be down to pay up just to hear him scream "GET STYLED UPON" some more. Kreig was the best drat thing in Borderlands 2 and single(huge)handedly made it worth playing.

Wait, so you can only get the Remaster for free if you bought the GotY bundle on PC, and everyone else (Assuming the Borderlands 1 in the Handsome Collection is functionally the same) can get hosed? Feels gross to me.

Rinkles posted:No, you're supposed to get the remaster regardless of the version of Borderlands 1 you have. Also, the handsome collection never included Borderlands 1. Huh, for some reason I thought it included all the games. I was mistaken then.

Rinkles posted:A lot of people liked improving the drop rates. I didn't do it, but I never minded people hacking in better drop rates, and I don't think Gearbox did too, or at least had a lazze faire view about it. I never kept track. It would be cool if they kept up with that, but if they are doing anything that is remotely always online, I doubt they would. Also, even though I have Borderlands 1 on PC I am half tempted to get the Remaster on PSPro for 4K and HDR in that artstyle. EDIT: So, our new Vault Hunters: Moze: Has a Mech? Fl4k: Has a Skag pet?

Rinkles posted:big difference in a lot of Borderlands 2 textures between the regular ps4 and pro ps4 with HD patch. clothing, monsters, terrain, posters, weapons upgraded. you can now make out what roland's twitter feed says in lilith's dungeon. i'm impressed gearbox. I am interested in the HDR implementation. If it is good, I may be willing to go for the Handsome Collection on ps4. Heck, at $15 I may go for it anyway.

I have to admit I played an hour of BL remaster, then hopped to 2. I don’t think I will look back. EDIT: Also ended up getting Handsome Collection on PS4 instead of starting up my PC copy with the UHD pack because I have a 4K HDR tv. Borderlands plays surprisingly well on a controller.

Zedsdeadbaby posted:Plug the 4K TV into the PC... If I was smart and good with money I would not be gaming in the first place. Seriously though, not a bad idea (I only have a 1070 but that can probably work well enough for B2). I would need to get a wireless receiver for the controller and a decently long cable, though.

I don’t know where to check, but do we know if Borderlands 3 uses UE4? It feels like adoption isn’t as widespread yet to force current developers to move on from their own in house version of UE3, like Netherrealm.

Donovan Trip posted:Right? Replaying bl2 I realized that games don't gently caress with flying enemies like this anymore. It's one of the things that dates the game, along with Diablo style skill trees. Lets be honest, BL up to this point has gotten away with some questionable design decisions because they were the only people doing what they were doing. Between that AND Randy Pitchford being a sleazy, shady gently caress, the fact that they are still playable kinda shows that there is some weird X-Factor to these games that makes them not like much else. That or we are all horrible addicts scratching for a fix, no matter how objectively good it is. Probably some combination of both. It will be interesting to see how they update BL3 for the here and now. EDIT: Also holy poo poo Deception is a really loving fun skill and I can't believe I didn't try Zero sooner.

Bugsy posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjFO3jrQcDo That reminds me, I remember that they brought in an art dude for a proposal for a different art direction, and he proposed a cell shaded style much like what we currently have. They said “Thank you for your time”, and went ahead with it anyway without crediting him. ...Gearbox is a trash company and I kinda hate that they do have a hit to prop them up. The fact that I am contributing to them even more so. Seriously though, did anything ever come out of it that whole thing? I remember there was an article about it somewhere and then nothing.

Question about the Community Patch: Does it make characters a little bit more durable out of the gate? One thing I always hated in Borderlands is that until you have a good few defensive skills, you are basically screwed if you are suddenly jumped by any decent sized group. I guess it is a consequence of the design being driven towards multiplayer, but it would be nice to be able to play aggressively solo.

I will say that the USGamer review did reveal something that is real disappointing to me: Once again, they did not bother to balance for solo play. Hopefully, at the very least the early levels aren’t as painful as in the other games but I doubt it. Also, loot is just as stingy as the other games, apparently. Hope you like picking up a bunch of whites with the occasional green.

It certainly feels a bit calculated, like they were aiming at sites that they thought would give good reviews in an effort to create some good buzz. I don't think this is quite a Kane and Lynch 2 situation, though I do wonder about that destructoid review.
