WOOOO ITS OUT!

So far, i like it, its running well on my PC too. The story is pretty good so far, only past the opening sequence. Claptrap and the whole "corny jokes" aura around borderlands is gone but the smaller jokes are funny. Bought the basic version, are you going to play?

Clearly you're a Borderlands fan, as a person that own's almost the entire collection. Is it best to play them in release date order, or are you best off starting with the pre-sequel?

From playing Telltale's Borderlands, I'd of said that Claptrap was one of the best characters, it's a bit of a shame if he is gone.

It's definitely something I'll add to my Wishlist, but I do really need to start getting through the series as a whole. Unfortunately, I've started to become an Achievement gatherer, so I suspect it may take more time than required.

Haha i am, im really glad to once again be tracking down Marcus bobble-heads because its somethin i strive to do since having the bobblehead from the borderlands 1 LE.

No claptrap is most certainly there too but his humor (since playing a lot more since this post) has changed somewhat. Still kind of annoying if you just dont like him, but there is an option now to turn off claptraps voice altogether. The humor is different, its not all gone, but if you played the others, you are most certainly going to notice a NICE difference tbh.

I never really understood the hate for Claptrap, but maybe that was because I was a teenager when Borderlands 1 was released.

I loved Claptrap in BL2, even his scuffed birthday was slightly emotional

So theres this whole drama around the game atm due to performance issues and Randy Pitchford being really...tone deaf about all of it.

The game runs fine for me, i have a 4080super and 12900k so obviously i dont have a low end PC, but if i try to play this game at 4k natively? I get like 35 fps lol and i dont even think a 5090 breaks 60 at that same setting. So there is CLEARLY issues.

Randys responses? Pretty much "deal with it or come code the game yourself" type of messages. This is a very toxic way for a CEO to attack its users for having this 70 dollar game run like crap for them. I really think CEOs should just stfu or just say "hey we see all your feedback, we will work on it!" like, idk almost all other devs when they are under fire for poor optimization?

The game is great and like i said runs fine, but Randys words makes it hard to enjoy it right now imo.
