Loving borderlands 1 I am absolutely LOVING this series and I’m only on the first game

82 Upvotes

so, I’ve always been aware of the borderlands franchise, especially after the Fortnite collab back in like 2018? 19? something like that. but I’ve never actually played the games. until like a year ago I was messing around with BL3 on a friend’s console. had no idea what I was doing but the art style and the music had me HOOKED. flash forward to my birthday and my uncle bought me the collection. it’s called either the pandora or psycho collection, idk, it’s the one with BL1-3 and the 2 tales games. earlier this week, I finally decided to start my journey by starting the first game.

and I. fucking. love. it. dude. this game is awesome. I’m only level 20 right now but i am having the time of my LIFE. the art style is immaculate. that grimy, mad max, wasteland energy combined with the cel shading and line work is absolute eye candy to me. it totally sells and compliments the vibe and personality of the game. I love the humor and how it isn’t afraid to be crass and grotesque. every line of dialogue makes me want more. the gameplay is super fun too. I love the quest aspect. ofc the story quests but the optional quests, I love grinding those too. I love the looting and the gun collecting aspect. I love trying out every weapon I can get my grubby little hands on. I love fighting my way through waves of enemies in these amazingly designed environments, and speaking of designs, holy fuck the character designs are great. Claptrap has become one of my favorite characters. I personally use Lilith and I love her design. And the enemies, oh my god the enemies. The psychos are so iconic, but the other enemies too are amazingly designed. Easily one of my favorite aspects of this game is how much it can get a “WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT??!!” reaction out of my whenever they throw some new, delightfully gross looking creature at me. The human enemies look so cool. I love their vibe.

overall I’m absolutely loving this game so far. I can not wait to see what this series has to offer. I can not wait to play the rest of the games, and I can’t wait to become a part of this fandom.

I’ve been waiting and now I think it’s a good time. I enjoyed 1-3 and presequel

[BL3] How does the weapon scaling work?

3 Upvotes

I got some golden pistol at the first 8 hours of the game with level 10 and 176 score and its still stronger then all weapons i come across. Then i see weapons with like 250 score and level 18 and they are just wayyy worse. Is the color really that important and how do they scale with their score and level?

PC I'm gonna play (almost) all the Borderlands games! (Should I do a second playthrough of the first tho?)

• Upvotes

The exceptions are the New Tales from the Borderlands, although I have this game, people say it's a shit story, and story is all of it, so I'm not going to play it, Borderlands 4, because it won't probably run on my old laptop, and almost all the dlcs, because I don't have the majority of them.

I've already did one playthrough of the first Borderlands, and it was pretty great, with an awesome gameplay loop, which carried me through this game for 17 hours across a week, but the story and soundtrack didn't really get me, I just thought it was really stale. I don't know if I should play the dlcs because I'll have to replay the game for a second time (something I always never do), and I really wanted to get on to Borderlands 2 (and I've still got like 7 games left to play lol).

That's it, I'll come here again to tell you guys if I've succeeded in my journey

[Question] Is there a way to see detailed action skill descriptions for the classes in borderlands online?

Especially the hunter class with the drone looks cool and I would love to see what she can do. But I can't find anything online.

[BL2] I would love a Borderlands 2 II

0 Upvotes

I would love a "Borderlands 2 II", which, if taking place between BL2 and BL3, could wrap up the plotline of The Watcher plot from Pre-Sequel that they seem to have completely dropped. However, it would need to be written by Anthony Burch (writer of BL2 and Pre-Sequel). Use the Vault Hunters from BL2 with more robust skill trees and multiple action skill options like that of BL4.
