Borderlands Game of the Year Enhanced

Awesome game, would recommend everyone that loves looters to play

good

Good game!

Приятно было приобщиться к истокам. В детстве-подростничестве первые локации заучил до дыр. По-прежнему приятно поиграть в эту мрачную и суровую, но не без черного юмора игрушку. Рекомендую тем, кого ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ сегодняшняя срамота и у кого подозрения на игровую импотенцию. Из минусов: очень плохая техническая часть - пришлось чинить напильником, лезть в конфиги. Больше всего помогло указать адрес в конфиге следующий - 127.0.0.1 В остальном - играется бодро, здорово, со смыслом.

It kickstarted its own genre and I respect that, but unfortunately the game aged really badly. -Story. Main problem, is that story and characters are almost non-existent. Sometimes you will get a cutscene introduction and a little bit of dialogue, but those are scarce. Side content is even worse, cause you will only get a written message at the start of an quest and when you return it, almost never a short dialogue. But OK, what about an actual story and characters. Well, the story is boring and characters not that interesting either. They will flesh them out more in DLCs and future entries, but not this time. -Gameplay. Actually it's good, but unfortunately it can't stand on its own for ~30 house. Gunplay is fun, I exceptionally love to tear midgets apart(why did they remove it in the 2 entry). Leveling up and skill system are simple, but rewarding, at least for the siren. Unfortunately it's not enough for 30 house, especially, when the quests here are usually boring litererally "MMO-style" slop aka "Kill 30 midges", "Find Sledge's ballsack", etc. Actually having something resembling a story would really help here. -OST. It's OK, it does it job, but nothing outstanding. -Graphics. They are outdated, but the style still elevates this game really well. Also I really liked the atmosphere, the game outstandingly conveyed the "Mad Max" vibe. -Technical side. I didn't experience any issues as a server, but as a client you need to install a fix for the FPS and there was always a feeling, that the game just didn't register the shots, but that may be an issue with on our side. DLCs: -Dr. Ned. Short and sweet, I really like the Halloween vibe and that they put an effort to actually create a character and put some good jokes in it. Recommended. -Moxie's Underdome. This DLC did an immeasurable damage to the society. -Knoxx Armory. I liked the story and Knoxx has some banger dialogues, but unfortunately constant driving really drags this DLC down, it really overstayed its welcome. Not recommended. -Claptrap Revolution. Easily the best one. It's isn't short, but it isn't long, good jokes, funny characters, interesting locations, I actually really liked the main hub here, can't explain why, but I will remember it for a long time. Recommended. Overall, the game started the legendary series and if you are a fan, I think you should beat it. It's not really awful, it's just there are a lot of better ways to spend your time.

Davvero molto giocabile, godibile

As someone that had played through much of Borderlands 2 and Presequel on my Xbox as a teen, I had never attempted to play Borderlands 1 and I never knew why. Borderlands is a fun romp through Pandora - nothing more, nothing less. I've always been a fan of the cel-shaded graphics, and it being one of the first to mix looter-shooter and rpg earns it some novelty brownie points. I don't have much to say about the game - the cast of characters are cool, but the story is relatively forgettable. It's nice to see where the franchise got its roots though. Happy Vault Hunting. 7/10

I love this game, but wtf with optimizing?

I am a massive fan of the Borderlands games, though, I'm sure it goes without saying certain entries are better than others. Let me set the scene a bit, years ago when I was a kid my father 'acquired' a copy of Borderlands I shortly after its launch due to the praise he heard surrounding this revolutionary title. I remember my dad didn't seem to like the game much, but after giving it a try, I was hooked immediately. The Diablo meets FPS that was Borderlands I doesn't have much flashy, nuanced gameplay by todays standards, but at the time it did something innovative. I beat the first game multiple times and have loved it each and every time. Many people complain about the way the story is delivered in this entry, but, it has that slow but deliberate storytelling and let me tell you, it does pay off! Each of the DLCs for this game are fun and exciting in their own right, though, if I had to pick one I disliked it would be Mad Moxxis Underdome as it seemed a little bland. However, I still recommend anyone who wants a taste of that gritty, crisp gunplay that made Borderlands so popular, to give this game a try. I feel the gunplay and gore effects in this game are outstanding and the series would make those less of a priority in later entries unfortunately. There is a lot of grindy ass side quests that are notorious in the Borderlands community, but, if grinding isn't your thing, just skip em! Borderlands I will always have a special place in my heart.
