Plays Borderlands 3 Once

Arms Race is fun though

you missed the funnier part of jacks dialogue where he says something along the line of "stop painting tattoos on dead chicks and sending them in, there are only 6 sirens and the odds that you just ran into a dead one are pretty slim" not quite exactly the words but its been a while, just remember laughing every time he said the line

I just realised, the fact that jack interacted with US so much was one of the many reasons he was such a good villain. He talked shit, he came to us. You could’ve had the opposite with the twins, they’re streamers, they have fans and forums. Imagine across the game being able to comment on their livestreams talking shit, literally being a hatewatcher.

The one thing I can't forgive the authors is killing Lilith and Maya and giving us Ava in return. I mean killing Lilith AND Maya? What have I ever done to deserve this? And why isn't anyone at least a little bit sympathetic for the people of Elpis? Not even Lilith or Claptrap who have been there. Crappy writing! 😒

In Borderlands 3 the villains were Twitch streamers so in the next game the villains will be YouTube game reviewers but at the end the real villain will be the owner of a social media site named eHX.

The craziest thing about the presequel is that the one dlc it did get is arguably the best DLC in any borderlands. That game is so underrated it’s criminal

I can defemd troy put off the two twins. They just dropped all potential with him when he was like turning against tyreen for like two seconds, then dropped all that when HE STILL GAVE HER POWER BEFORE DYING?? Troy could've started off as an annoying dumb streamer nockoff and then after his chat with you, got more defiant, did things on his own. Had more quipy dialogue with you, and the became a pretty good villain in the end by betraying tyreen and stealing her power

What I primarily dislike about the villains: They seem to have gained some kind of omnipotence relatively early in the story, sucking people dry, stealing siren powers, effortlessly teleporting hordes of bandits across planets with the snap of a finger, turning important story characters into literal nonexistence, and magically kidnap others away without even being physically present. Suspension of disbelief goes a long way: But I can't disbelieve my way out of that. They are constantly commenting on how I keep killing their followers and sound totally pissed about it. Why am I, as their mass-murdering main source of problems, not simply snatched away and instakilled? Why do they not take the Sanctuary III and just phase it into a rock for funsies? Why are they not using their powers and get rid of the Crimson Raiders? There is NOTHING stopping them, and it's so painfully obvious. It's just story BS. Massive, gaping plot holes abound. I can get behind enemies with plot armour, but it's getting mighty uncomfortable when I'm seemingly the one wearing it. And no, I will not accept answers like "they were playing the big brain 5D chess because they want you to kill their followers for some super smart reason" -> no, they were NOT. No excuse for terrible writing. With Borderlands 2, there were several believeable reasons why Jack didn't just bombard you into oblivion: 1. Most of the time, he probably didn't even know exactly where you were. 2. He has no magic powers - he has a space station with a few mortars, which have to be adjusted precisely in order to deal damage to such a small target as you. Mortar strikes are also too costly to be fired on a whim. 3. Sanctuary was protected by a shield: The second it went down, he did rain hellfire on it. Then Lilith phased Sanctuary away, promising she could do it at any given point. Jack, unable to ascertain the veracity of her words as he knows exactly how powerful a cracked-out Siren can be, decided to fall for the bluff. There's simply no way he could possibly obliterate you the way the Calypsos can do, as he was just a dude with a giant corporation. And said corporation already gives you one helluva fight down on Pandora.

I like Typhon DeLeon because he's exactly what I'd expect from a Pandoran. And also I like the idea of him as the template for future vault hunters. His feats are ridiculous. The future Vault Hunters also do ridiculous things. They save Mercenary Day. They deface Handsome Jack statues with a constructor. They try to impress Scooter's cousin with pizza. Vault Hunters are badasses and weirdos.

I’ve played through this game over 20 and I’ve never realized typhon died until now

As someone who has loved Borderlands since the second game this is a great video😂 this is great quality man i hope your content gets more recognition 🙏

To be fair typhon was originally going to be played by the trash man himself Danny Devito but be declined so they worked with what they had

THERE'S A DIALOGUE SKIPPING MOD!?!?! aight i'm boutta reinstall

the quality of this video is stellar man keep it up

One thing from Borderlands 4 I want is of course the extra skill tree dlc we got for Borderlands 3, and extra vault hunters. (And they need a better villain. A REAL VILLAIN)

Why didn't you just fast travel to the nearest checkpoint when you were stuck inside the minecart

Great video LockeJohn Ex! Happy to see people are still enjoying Borderlands 👍

Talking about visual overload, when I would play this game on the ps4 electric effects would freeze the console lol

ok the mission reward legendary was actually kind of hilarious. ill give you that one. I dont mind the legendary drop rates in BL3 at all simply because i dont play video games like i used to when BL first dropped, so i like getting useable guns during my playthrough and not having to farm my life for something on a game i play a couple of hours a week if im lucky. HOWEVER i was very sad they got rid of Pearls and other rarities, because on the off chance i had time to farm a god roll/pearl, id definitely like that challenge of something even more bad ass to be available with a bit of a grind. I dont think that appeasing the hardcore crowd should equate to punishing the casual group, and of course vice versa. i think 3s humor was on point at the most random of times, but the story itself really was lacking, course they robbed us of scooters death in the main games and other events that i had no clue of because i also didnt play battle for sanctuary as i had stopped playing bl2 by like 2015-2016 the latest. but yeah the games solid, but still has its rough areas. all aside good video dude!

great video production!
