Today’s game is Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. Me and a Friend are getting ready for something tomorrow. So we were low on time. We ended up playing some Borderland to save on time. I played claptrap. I don’t have much of a story this time due to just not playing very long, so instead I’ll talk about the game....
I quite liked the maps myself and the story whilst perhaps a little to obvious was fun.
My biggest problem was the enemy/mission level scaling which found you falling behind the main story mission quite easily making for some either very tough fights or some less than thrilling side quest farming.
Oh and how long it took to unlock weapon slots 3 & 4. Such a slog!
Yay, borderlands! I think it’s been my favourite franchise for a solid decade now and Borderlands 2 certainly swallowed a huge portion of my life and honestly still does to some degree.
The series has had some gems and some less than great content but the gameplay loop has always been very satisfying!
Back in the 90s, it was a game as Java applet. But then somebody removed all those nice plugins. I ported it a while back to C#, made it into desktop (Gtk, WinForms etc), but now finally, it returns - with WebAssembly - back into the browser, where this originally “remastered from DOS” game began 😀
Came out in 1998 a month or so before Half Life and came with a patch cd in the box 🤣
Interesting take on the fps genre with branching routes/alternate levels that change things in the story deepening on your success. It’s a bit janky now but still a decent game.
