Borderlands 3

I haven't completed the game yet, but I'm level 19 and can say it's quite fun. It has a few problems. Multiplayer is quite buggy, and will freeze sometimes. There are returning characters and all sorts of cool ways to destroy enemies. A little complaint I have is the villans here. They are a little weak, they can be a little intresting I guess, but they can't beat Handsome Jack at all.

The gunplay is different feeling and still good. They combat mechanics are similar to Destiny, but this is a way better game than Destiny. It's just the combat that is similar. A great game, fun for everybody. However i recommend playing borderlands 2 first if you haven't, so you can appreciate the characters more. If your a borderlands fan you won't be disappointed. I give it an 8/10

I love Borderlands. I love Borderlands so much, I got into its lore. The Borderlands series has a pretty good storytelling and gameplay to the point where I got sick of it, but keep coming back to it. I was hype when the 3rd game was announced because we haven't had a Borderlands game in a while for about 7, 5, or 4 years. The only thing that was turning me off was the controversy behind this game which made me a little worried. Then the reviews came out, I heard it was the best, it was the worst, it was mediocre at best, and I don't know how I feel about it. I got spoiled about a certain scene which left me disappointed. So finally during Christmas, I got the game.

I do enjoyed the up-step gameplay they introduced, making the whole game more fun. The player's menu is something I'm trying to get used to since this is a new game. The fast-travel is a little issue to me. I don't like the fact that to able to travel somewhere, you have to locate where the fast-travel is to the place you want to good. I have heard about bugs and glitches before I bought the game and they're pretty noticeable. EX: Shooting at a bandit vehicle and makes an explosion sound but no explosion. Although I enjoy the gameplay, I don't like how it's giving me OP weapons everywhere I go. In the previous games, finding powerful weapons is slightly rare but here it's everywhere you loot. In the previous games, you upgrade your class to get better against challenging foes while in BL3, it doesn't feel challenging at all. It makes things too easy and unstoppable.

I honestly don't know to explain the story in this game. Is lazy and uninteresting to go through. The main villains of this game is terrible to see and cringy to watch. This story ruins some previous characters of how they are and has ALOT of plotholes. After looking at Tales of the Borderlands and the Pre-sequel story, I thought the story would be better but nope they dumb it down.

The game just dropped so it has some glitches but the game is still awesome

The core gameplay mechanics work beautifully, shooting hasn't felt this amazing in a borderlands game before, the ability to slide and mantle onto ledges makes the core loop of shooting and looting even more satisfying than the previous games. But unfortunately those new additions can't save the game from poor pacing and a lackluster story that leaves much to be desired, mix that with really forgettable villains and a horrible mid section on eden 6 that last far too long

Borderlands 3 definitely went the wrong road in story but the right direction in gameplay

If you're like me who loved the story of borderlands 2 you won't find that here If you're someone who is here for just the story and a laugh then it's definitely the game for you

Pros: Fantastic loot Movement system is a major step up New vault hunters are all a welcome addition

Cons: Boring story Empty worlds Poor pacing and mid section

Borderlands 3 is a butter-smooth game that finally eliminates the incredibly exhausting bullet-sponge experience. Not only that but maps are fun to explore because of their thematic uniqueness as opposed to those depressed vast open lands that are filled with repetitive enemies and monotonic colors. The fast travel option also saves a huge junk of your time. The vehicle gameplay could still be improved, sometimes I feel like I'm driving a yoga ball.

The story was not that bad. I mean since when was Borderlands famous for its writing? Campaign was well understandable and straightforward, although some of the scenes just seemed to be coming out of nowhere and has almost no buildup. Your character contributes very little if no interaction to the story. It would have been better to have only one character that players can choose which class to attach with.
