What this game does get more wrong than its predecessors however, is the characters and dialogue. Every story in the franchise thus far has been bad/forgettable and this game is no different in that regard. However, since when were people buying Borderlands games for the award winning story telling lol? Never. The characters are annoying and the story is so forgettable i couldnt even tell you what happened. I will say that some of the criticism aimed at the game, i entirely agree with.

It should be judged purely on the game that it is. However, since when were people buying Borderlands games for the This being an epic exclusive on release shouldn't detract from its score as much as it did. This being an epic exclusive on release shouldn't detract from its score as much as it did. Other big problems include Mayhem 10's extremely build/weapon restrictive nature due to horrid balancing decisions, asinine limited time seasonal events, horrible optimization, and much more, which you can consistently find people **** about on reddit. Gearbox's idea of "harder" gameplay equals increased health and damage dealt, i.e mayhem mode. At least BL2 had a fantastic villain in Handsome Jack. Once you've gone through the mediocre main story, there's not a lot that will keep you entertained. Because of this, the gameplay, what should be the biggest strength of the Borderlands series, suffers. At least BL2 had a fantastic Gearbox falsely believes they are brilliant story tellers, and they've unfortunately made the story and characters the main focus of B元 and all the DLC.

I loved this franchise, im sad this is borderlands 3, it might've ruined its future … Expand 0 not because its a bad game, but its a huge dissapointment. This story feels insignificant, boring, like it doesn't really make a difference, its not immersive. I could write all day about the frustration this writing gave me, ill end this here. you hate them because of their dialog? And from what ive seen voice acting? Not saying its bad, it might be but from what i've seen the voice actors aren't doing a good job. The main villains are again, very infuriating, and not in a villain way, you don't hate them because of what they do, because of their actions. Vaughn: Baaaaaaandd it Lyffffffeeeeeeeee. Just compare character introductions and you will see how bad the writing is. you are not the main character, u are not even a character, you don't exist in this game, it feels kinda dissapointing to do everything and then never be slightly praised. Get ready to feel completley insignificant and worthless when all your effort put in being a bad-ass is thrown away cause gues what. The pre-sequel(although considered bad cause its basically a slow-burn) had much better writing. Its just that story actually matters, and as we can see, its making up about half the score of this game. What are those unfunny jokes? Its like those are intentionally infuriating, Also so many people say the story was never that important cause its a looter shoot but then, why its the User Score 5.2? Was the gameplay bad? No. Its just that story actually matters, and as we can see, its making up about half I experienced a lot of cringe moments playing this game.
