Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

jimothy

No começo é bom, bem divertido, muito legal, mas depois de um tempo cansa de tão repetitivo, nas primeiras 15 horas era muito legal, mas depois disso, começou a cansar, e eu só joguei pra zerar e tirar da minha lista de drops. A história é muito interessante, contando a história do Handsome Jack se tornando vilão, mas não vale a pena jogar não, é mais fácil ver a história pelo Youtube e pular pro 2.

The last good Borderlands game, play the DLC "Claptastic Voyage" after the campaign, like all claptrap DLC, its very funny with witty humour and some dark jokes thrown in.

meh. its a game heheheha

This game has been on my backlog for forever and you know I owe it to my younger self to actually finish the game he purchased and my oh my, of all the borderlands games I was really putting this one off. I think the elephant in the room is quite apparent with the mechanic of oxygen and the whole plot of being in space. I think realistically it’s just an annoying mechanic there for lore sake. When I first started out I really despised this mechanic, in fact I still do hate it with a passion. However, like insanity does to you, you sort of get used to it and find ways to adapt. I don’t like it because even with its redeeming factors it is still not as engaging as straight up gameplay. You have to either cycle oxygen machines or find cracks of oxygen to refill your tank, albeit not difficult but just a nuisance of gameplay. As much as I hate it, I will admit SOMETIMES it gets fun when you can slam down in the air and almost boost jump for some movement speed and then when you’re in the air floating to use your characters special ability that’s cool too. As much as of an inconvenience it is from normal mechanics you can tell that there was some consideration to make it bearable. I much rather prefer some running and sliding and double jumps in gameplay rather than floating after every jump. There are many areas where you wont be needing to fill your tank but the whole game is in low gravity, so it’s really not HORRIBLY bad it’s not a deal breaker. It is an interesting mechanic for a borderlands game so I can’t hate too hard, I admire the willingness to try new things. There is a lot of cool stuff in this game. I really like the enemy variety and enemy design and even the parts when it very clearly is trying to stretch the game with filler content it is redeemable in its writing or enemy variety. I didn’t necessarily do everything just cause I was really getting tired of the floating movement but even in the main story quest line alone, there’s a plethora of story and gameplay to experience. I really enjoyed the characters in this one and I am especially happy I played this because it fills in some gaps and makes me feel completely different knowing more about the story of Jack and the vault hunters. I reckon some people will be put off by playing a game where Jack is such a prominent role and I definitely get that too it does feel weird knowing Jack’s character but being the presequel it is still a refreshing experience. Also, what the hell when this game talks about AI it is so strange now that we’re living in the day of it’s reckoning. It’s kind of funny too the way that they talk about it doing things that are actually happening now with AI (i.e moving robots) and they made it seem like it was so futuristic. But that section is for sure one of my favorites because of the characters. Tons of awesome boss fights in this game too, it gets pretty hard near the end I had to spend like an hour grinding some levels because I was too behind of my main story quest level. Some bosses are dead ass some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ though, I feel like sometimes they’re just like yeah ♥♥♥♥ it just throw everything in there and then they just add mini bosses on the way to bosses. I was bleeding through ammo and dying so much. Probably the most challenging borderlands I’ve played. Also, I quite literally played this entire game on handheld which was an awesome way to really test it and it was great. I played as Nisha and her ability is basically aimbot on a short cooldown so it was pretty great to have a get out of jail card. My closing thoughts though are it’s so hard for me to properly rate it as my disdain for the gameplay mechanic has soured my positive feelings for the game and so I can’t even say without it, it would be better, because then it wouldn’t be the presequel. I reluctantly give it a 6.75/10, I did enjoy more parts than I anticipated and if you are a borderlands fan then this is simply more borderlands.
