  • I had high expectation going in but I quickly found it flawed.

    It’s enjoyable but the settings feels like a gimmick more than something brought to the very end. The people talk and feel like modern people in costume and there’s plenty of dialogues that betray a lack of attention toward credibility.

    Spoiler

    I respected the immersion in a world that for once was actively engaging with magic / religion and I was so so disappointed where once again I found they went for a rather bland and slightly offensive alien solution.

    At least I had a great laugh at the museum where the most impossible of character path were laid bare in front of me.

    Also you can’t save the assassin wtf?


    7/10, wouldn’t drop my job for it again.












  • I stuggled with it so many times. I think Borderlands games, in general, are the ones I tried the most to enjoy, because everything about it is cool to me, the eastetic, the characters, the presentation…

    I restarted the first at least 4 times, alone and in coop, thinking the problem was that it doesn’t work as a solo experience. I layed the sniper and then I tried the gunman because, maybe, the sniper is not that enjoyable.

    Then I got the 2, because maybe the first was too raw and basic.

    I just… don’t have fun.

    I point the cursor toward waves of spongy healthbars, and then I get server a giant plate of paralyzing choices between 64 billion gear options that clutter me and my frail mind.

    I ended up loving Tales from the Borderlands: all the good from the worldbuilding and none of the gameplay loop.
