holy shit how does a game that looks this awful require a 5090 and frame gen to run at 1080p?

Wasn't the guy that came up with that meme a borderlands writer? Meaning in this case they're referencing themselves? Because if so, then yeah it's not very funny.

Holy shit! I preordered. I hope they will some Hideo Kojima references in the future updates. Man's a genius.

Ah, Borderlands, a series famed for its subtle humor.

Idk if its the case but it would be even better if all the items/guns he dropped had vague Souls style flavor text ""lore""
>>
>>720889391
There's no way this is the game that people are struggling to run on new hardware. This looks like some 2004 shit.
>>
>>720892363
Well, borderlands is indeed not known for quality humor, so you got me there.
>>
>>720889454
>the anthony burch game
You niggers are legitimately fucking obsessed, Anthony Burch hasn't worked at Gearbox in 10 years
>>
>>720889965
Borderlands writers are aware they aren't really good, so they hide behind 10 layers of irony in an attempt to hide how truly bad they are. It's akin to a nerd making excuses for himself as to why violence and self-defense is bad to coverup the fact that he can't fight and would get his shit pushed by anyone.
>>
>>720889391
>>720889429
extremely cringy
literal milleanial disney writing where everything has to be a reference so that slop gobblers feel validated

Referential humor is derivative in nature. It can never be as funny as the original simply because of prior exposure. People who have seen it before have already laughed about it as much as it deserved, and people who haven't seen it before won't get the reference.

If you're trying to be funny then originality is of paramount importance. Endeavor to create the thing other people reference.
>>
>>720889391
>>720889429
Did people really, unironically waste money on this? I mean it doesn't even have good gameplay. The franchise never did.
>>
>>720889516
I don't get it either. Looks like a PS3 game.
>>
>>720889391
If it were only in a better game.
>>
>>720889391
Can't believe that vydia writers are still so butthurt that people get more invested in a character with a good boss fight and a few vague voice lines than whatever shit they wrote. Who would have guessed, most people prefer to decide how much they want to engage in the story instead of being forced to watch 10 minute dialogue cutscenes all the time.
>>

4 U big guy, sneed, skub, literally this but unironically!

Based, fuck soulniggers
>>
>>720893903
Sounds like projection.
>>
not only is it not funny,
the gameplay looks like absolute aids
the tone of the writing is all wrong (doesn't sound like souls dialogue at all, even as a parody)
but also: what the fuck are those subtitles, why do they cut off mid sentence between random words
the level of incompetence in this game, i don't understand how people can play such blatantly shitty games and how such incompetence cost hundreds of millions to churn out but cant even do the most basic quality assurance

was the writer really so proud of his joke that he had to put it in the game

It's not even a good joke. Stole it too.
But hey, that's the absolute state of modern writing.

Borderland writers are millennials on average, source my ass but you just know.
>>
>>720894179
And it would be. I don't care how many times it happens. A big cool guy with a sword, a cape, berserk themed saying "FORGIVE ME" after he dies in his second ultra demon form will ALWAYS be fucking cool. If you disagree you are gay and retarded.
>>
>>720896037
Ok the random rambling like a vaati vid is pretty funny
>>
>>720889429
Zanzibart should've been a raid boss.
>>
Borderlands 2 was one of the first games to feature a Dark Souls reference.
>>

>boss says 3 words
>vaati comes out of a cave and makes up some 10 min lore dump from nothing

>>720896979
I'm disappointed wonderlands didn't have the other 5 magical horses.
>>
>>720889391
tbf the lore dump is funny as fuck, it sounds exactly like dark souls, random words and names for soultrannies to pretend the games have good worldbuilding, story or characters
>>
>>720896923
um my 3 most wanted reps for smash geno, vaati, skull kid

The only one seething is you. Making fun of soulsfags is the god-given duty of all gamers.
>>
>>720896037
>1min of gameplay
>10min of LORE after the fact
Yeah that's pretty fucking funny
If there was an obnoxious phase two and an epic chanting boss theme, I'd buy Randy's game for this certified soulsKINO alone

good morning saar
please do not redeem the borderlands 4 you bloody bastard

How come from software stans always start seething when someone makes light fun of their games?
>>
I finished the main story last night and the timekeeper is such a nothing character. He barely talks to you at all and he doesn't really have an evil plan he just exists. I think this might actually have a more nothing happens story than Borderlands 1.
>>
>>720897337
I don't think it's seething
It's just a parody of both the games and the community
The character speaks in "ye olde tymey English" and then a youtuber starts rambling for 10 minutes
It's funny
>>
>>720897337
Fromdrone's head... vacant... just like the "story" of their games...

Have you guys noticed how fromsissies are all ESLs?
>>
>>720898789
Checks out. Miyazaki himself said the writing is like it is because he used to read books in english with terrible comprehension and he wanted the games to feel like that
>>
>Thread unironically filled with amerimutts proud of only knowing one language
>All of them use the same buzzwords
>"Fromsofware is bad becoz muh fingies r 2 fat 2 hav gud reaction taims"
>"Esl bad, being a mutt n liking pozzed games gud"
The english should have drowned all of you when you tried to emancipate.

>>720899989
You are literally seething because someone made fun of your precious rollslop shittery.

The very first game was referencing Lonely Island skits. Shut up, retard.

>>720889391
I actually bought it (for £45) and its painfully average and I regret my descision. It's not bad or good
>>
>>720901149
Because it mocks the series shitty "lore" that they love
>>
>>720901149
Because for two decades they unironically gloated how their badly written lore is the peak of the fantasy genre.
