Borderland the Presequel


Recommended Posts

Oh dear lord. I spent so much time on the first two. I'll just cover my ears and hope I don't hear this one gets released.

October 14th is the drop date!

 

So far, the only playable character which hasn't been shown in any game play videos (at least from what I've been researching) is clap trap.

 

If anyone has a link to a sneak peak of clap trap game play, could you post it on here for me?

I don't think it will beat BL2 as far as characters, 1-liners, or story line.  BL2 had some epic characters with amazing 1-liners...handsome jack, tiny tina, and torque to just name a few.

 

I believe that the 1-liners will still be there, I just don't know what to expect from it.  If they follow the same guidlines for BL and BL2 I think this will be an epic game and hopefully we'll see a BL3 launch in the next 2 years or so.  This games feels like it's a place setter before they hit us with BL3.

PEW PEW PEW. We're playing on PC, sadly (for you). Athena and Claptrap.

 

"It looks like you accidentally selected Claptrap as your character. Are you sure?"

 

Nice, how are you liking the game?  i am enjoying the story line.  It's pretty cool to hear the references to BL 1 and to see how the "heroes" of BL2 played a role in getting jack to power.  I'm playing as Nisha right now and am planning on playing Wilhelm next. 

 

I do like how they are not conservative with moonstones like they were with eridium in BL2.  I also like the option to spend 40 of them to open a loot chest with hopes of finding something worth while.  I opened one last night and it had 4 shields in it and only one of them were of any use to me.  I did; however, get a lucky loot drop during a mission and got a longbow grenade as a drop.  So far, that has been the best loot drop I've received.

I've been tempted to ditch Destiny and go Borderlands the presequel....BL always has so much more content.

I went with BL the pre sequel over Destiny because I am a huge BL fan and made a choice to only purchase one for the time being.

 

At any rate, I played through some more of the campaign last night and OMFG was it EPIC!!!!!  I'm not going to spoil it for any one but I will say one thing.  It is pretty awesome to see the "in between" BL1 and BL2.

Thanks! Yeah, I chose Destiny purely because I had hope there would be more content, and I liked the idea of a game that continued to expand rather than just 'end' like the typical game. That said, I feel like my style is definitely more BL in nature.

 

I'll likely wait until the first price drop and grind through a couple of games I haven't finished yet.

Destiny wasn't made for the solo campaign.  It was made for the online killing.  Don't get me wrong, the game looks great, and I really like what it seems to offer for a shooter; however, I was much more drawn towards BL pre sequel because it was borderlands game.  I already knew what to mostly expect.  Awesome one-liners, guns guns guns, and a story line I would enjoy because I played BL1 and BL2 and loved everything about both of them.

 

This game has given me great enjoyment as a RPS.  The twist, which was awesome, that happened last night was amazing.  It really puts everything that happened after BL1 and why it happened in BL2 into shape and I really like that this isn't the standard BL.  I mean, it actually shows when jack gets pissed at the vault hunters as well as the NPC's you fight in BL2 and why they want to kill the vault hunters.

I'll be honest.  Steam has spoiled me.  I am waiting for the 75% off sale.

Well considering that a Steam Sale (plus free weekend to get me hooked) is how I got to enjoying the game and I am still working on playing through the main game with each character I will probably end up getting BL1 and the Pre-Sequel next time they go on sale.
