Tales from the Borderlands

What I didn't expect from Tales from the Borderlands was how much emotion it would have underneath all the jokes. I think Tales from the Borderlands is one of Telltale's strongest games because it understands something incredibly important: you don't need complicated gameplay to make an adventure memorable. Yes, it's funny. Sometimes ridiculously funny. But what makes the game work is that the humor is balanced with genuine character development. You start out laughing at these ridiculous people and eventually find yourself actually caring about what happens to them. There's no endless loot grind or traditional shooting. Instead, you get an interactive comedy-adventure with an excellent cast of characters and some genuinely hilarious situations. The biggest strength is the characters. Rhys, Fiona, Vaughn, Sasha, and the rest of the cast have enough personality that even the smaller moments are entertaining. The writing is funny without relying entirely on the usual Borderlands humor, and the relationships between the characters give the story a surprising amount of heart. Tales from the Borderlands is funny, creative, surprisingly emotional, and filled with characters that are easy to remember. For me, it's not just a good Borderlands spin-off—it's one of Telltale's best adventures. Enjoy :)

Шикарное сюжетное приключение.

the story is good, it has a mix of comedy and realism to it. i think that this game is really worth getting.

they/them

At first, I thought this was going to be boring. But what a fantastic game and story! It has a lot of emotional moments. If you're getting into the Borderlands series, I suggest playing BL1 and 2 first. You don't have to, but you'll see the broader picture if you do and learn more about the characters.

[h2]Nota Geral | Overall Rating[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐⭐ [b]Tales from the Borderlands é, sem dúvida, o melhor spin-off que a série já teve, mesmo sendo um jogo completamente diferente do que os fãs de tiro e loot esperavam. A Telltale pegou o universo caótico de Pandora e transformou isso em uma comédia de aventura com personagens carismáticos e diálogos afiados. O jogo entrega ótimos personagens e uma trilha sonora surpreendente, mas peca justamente onde eu esperava mais: no enredo, que é competente, porém está longe de ser memorável.[/b] [i]Tales from the Borderlands is, without a doubt, the best spin-off the series has ever had, even though it's a completely different kind of game from what fans of shooting and loot were expecting. Telltale took the chaotic universe of Pandora and turned it into an adventure comedy with charismatic characters and sharp dialogue. The game delivers great characters and a surprisingly good soundtrack, but falls short exactly where I expected more: the story, which is competent, but far from memorable.[/i] [h2]Jogabilidade | Gameplay[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐ [b]A jogabilidade segue a fórmula padrão da Telltale, com QTEs e escolhas de diálogo ditando o ritmo. Aqui, pelo menos, existe uma tentativa de dar um pouco mais de identidade ao gameplay com os momentos alternando entre Rhys e Fiona, cada um com sua própria perspectiva da história. Funciona bem para variar o ritmo, mas mecanicamente é o de sempre: você aperta o botão na hora certa e escolhe a resposta que combina com o seu personagem. Nada de revolucionário.[/b] [i]The gameplay follows the standard Telltale formula, with QTEs and dialogue choices dictating the pace. Here, at least, there's an attempt to give the gameplay a bit more identity by alternating moments between Rhys and Fiona, each with their own perspective on the story. It works well to vary the rhythm, but mechanically it's the usual deal: you press the button at the right time and pick the response that fits your character. Nothing revolutionary.[/i] [h2]Duração | Duration[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐ [b]São 5 episódios, mantendo o padrão de 8 a 10 horas da Telltale. A duração é justa para o que o jogo se propõe a contar, mas não sai muito do lugar comum. Dá pra terminar em um fim de semana sem grandes esforços, e o fator replay existe por causa das escolhas, mas não é algo que te prenda por muito mais tempo do que isso.[/b] [i]There are 5 episodes, maintaining Telltale's standard 8 to 10 hours. The length is fair for what the game sets out to tell, but it doesn't stray far from the norm. You can finish it in a weekend without much effort, and there's some replay value because of the choices, but it's not something that keeps you hooked much longer than that.[/i] [h2]Enredo | Story[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐ [b]O enredo é bem mais ou menos, nada memorável. A premissa de dois oportunistas de Pandora tentando dar um golpe é interessante no papel, e os personagens carregam boa parte do peso com seu humor e química, mas a trama em si não surpreende muito ao longo do caminho. É divertido de acompanhar no momento, mas não é daquelas histórias que ficam na cabeça depois que os créditos sobem.[/b] [i]The plot is pretty average, nothing memorable. The premise of two Pandora hustlers trying to pull off a heist is interesting on paper, and the characters carry a good part of the weight with their humor and chemistry, but the plot itself doesn't offer many surprises along the way. It's fun to follow in the moment, but it's not one of those stories that stays with you after the credits roll.[/i] [h2]Visual[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐ [b]O visual segue o padrão da Telltale, que já é datado, mas ainda assim tem seu próprio estilo. A estética cell shaded combina bem com o tom de quadrinho e humor do jogo, e as cores vibrantes ajudam a diferenciar Tales from the Borderlands dos outros títulos mais sombrios da desenvolvedora. O problema é o motor gráfico em si, que já mostrava sinais de cansaço na época e não segura muito bem o teste do tempo.[/b] [i]The visuals follow the Telltale standard, which is already dated, but it still has its own style. The cell-shaded aesthetic fits well with the game's comic book tone and humor, and the vibrant colors help set Tales from the Borderlands apart from the studio's other, darker titles. The problem is the graphics engine itself, which was already showing signs of age at the time and doesn't hold up particularly well over time.[/i] [h2]Áudio | Audio[/h2] ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ [b]O áudio é, sem dúvida, o grande destaque do jogo. As músicas são muito boas e sabem exatamente quando entrar para elevar um momento, seja em uma cena de ação ou em um dos vários momentos cômicos da dupla de protagonistas. A dublagem também acompanha esse nível, com um elenco afiado que entrega o timing certo tanto para o humor quanto para os momentos mais sérios. É o tipo de trilha sonora que você lembra bem depois de terminar o jogo, mesmo esquecendo boa parte da trama.[/b] [i]The audio is, without a doubt, the game's biggest highlight. The music is really good and knows exactly when to kick in to elevate a moment, whether during an action scene or one of the many comedic beats between the two protagonists. The voice acting matches that level too, with a sharp cast that nails the timing for both the humor and the more serious moments. It's the kind of soundtrack you still remember well after finishing the game, even if you forget most of the plot.[/i]

porfavor necesito amigos que lo hallan jugado, es el juego mas perfecto y precioso que existe y eso que soy una persona exigente en todo ambito, esta magestuosidad audiovisual jugable hizo de mis ojos las cataratas del iguazú, no tengo las palabras suficientes para explicar lo mucho que senti y empatize con todos y el susto que me pegue por sasha, porfavor comprenselo y hablenme los voy a amar, TELLTALE GAMES STUDIOS TE AMO DOY MI VIDA Y MI ALMA POR VOS

Such a well written story continuing what Borderlands 2 and Borderlands The Pre-Sequel did. The gameplay was fluid and the choices really proved that they mattered later on. The soundtrack was excellent, both the episode opening cinematics and use of tracks from the original games were spot on.
