潘多拉老油条了 我个人心目中几款神作之一 2009年原版发售算是个黑马游戏 从2011年游玩至今天 刻在DNA里的游戏

En las cuatro horitas que voy es un juegazo, uso y recomiendo
Un jeu qui aura eu une excellente durée de vie car cela fait presque 11 ans que j'ai commencé ce jeu qui est un pure bonheur à chaque fois que je le démarre. Une histoire vraiment bien fourni pour l'époque, des graphismes qui était aussi très bon en 2009 et lorsqu'ils ont sortie la version enhanced, j'avais quelques appréhensions mais toujours aussi bien surtout avec des graphismes améliorés. Je recommande toujours pour quelqu'un qui veut se faire les mains sur un bon FPS.
fix the launcher your dumb borderlands four add broke the game otherwise its a solid classic randy pitchfords greed destroying the og titles is so dumb
Borderlands is an absolute blast! The "looter-shooter" formula is perfected here with a massive variety of wild weapons and a unique art style that still looks fantastic. Whether you're playing solo or with friends, the combat is fast-paced and the humor is top-notch. If you love chaotic action and endless loot, this is a must-play. Overall: 10/10 – Catch a ride!
Memory leak / performance issues + f'ing ads for the newest gearbox slop on the main menu = play the original.
Great game 10/10
Overall grade: B Enjoyable? Yes Recommended? To those who enjoy FPSs, sifting through gear, and the occasional space-western. Keep in mind it’s nearly a 20-year-old game Replayability: Med-Low +gritty yet silly first-person looter shooter with plenty of loot and huge wasteland-type maps +gameplay: engaging combat (played as a soldier on this run-through ) and decent gun feel imo; tons of gear dropped by enemies, bought at vending machines or found in chests; requires inventory management +4 character classes, leveling system and skill tree +graphics, art style, environments and atmosphere +so much content between side missions and DLCs +/-story is thin but decent +/-a large majority of mission details are given through text, which I don’t mind +/-comedic attempts are usually misses imo but they got a giggle out of me a few times—definitely adds to the atmosphere. And nothing was ever unbearable, thankfully! -very little dialogue; conversations are nonexistent -main story missions generally don’t feel that distinct from side missions Minor gripe: -occasionally stuck in place while traversing. Luckily, it didn’t occur too often and you could “unstick “ yourself the majority of the time, not always though :’( Steam Deck compatibility: ✅ Runs smoothly out of the box with no major issues ~4hrs at full battery with “high” video settings @60fps Widescreen ✔️ Offline playable ✔️
