ITT: Series that were never good
>>736103829Meh, gaige was hot in 2.
>>736103829Borderlands 1 was good. The rest were shit.The zoomers that say that the series has always had Reddit humor never once played the original, and base all of it off 2 and after.
>>736103894She was also the worst class in the game.
>>736103973Nah, Gaige was fun. Using her ricochet talent with a rocket shotgun slaps.
>>736103973What?
>>736103829
>>736104029>>736104039Gaige has 1, count it, 1 viable build and its centered around you shooting the literal ground and doing nothing else. It's not even an OP build at that, her class is just ass.
>reddit humorfine. don't care>guns dont feel that good to shootfine. don't care>enemies are just bullet sponges>movement feels like playing with action figures>endgame is grinding for rare dropsdropped i'm afraid...
>>736104029>gaige was fun>anything end game requires you to shoot the ground and reload a million times for stacks to just kill one enemy>lol gotta reload the boss because your shit didnt drop, have fun waiting 10 minutes to do it again while Zero has just killed the boss 17 times with 1 bullet.Yeah nah that class is dogshit. Literally the "girlfriend/gamergurl meme" class.
Combat was dogwater. Just read a book.
>>736103829Gameplay-wise I actually enjoy every game except 4 which I haven't played yet. Story-wise they're all dogwater except Tales 1.
NV is the only halfway decent thing to come out of this entire franchise.Search your feeling, you know it be true.
>>736106292You retards always say shit like this and your justification is only if you use a billion mods that fix the game.
>>736106985NV needs exactly 0 mods to be good.
>>736107216April Fools is tomorrow, anon.
Yeah I guess all these IPs suck. That's how you get sequels and millions of dollars, by being shit.
>>736107448i unironically like goofy over the top saints row more than gta clone saints row.
>>736107571number of sales does not indicate quality anon.
I think americans love this one... Can't see why.
>>736107696funny how that reverses anytime it's a game /v/ doesn't like.
>>736107570I'm 100% serious and unironic when I say that if you think NV needs any mods to be good you should neck yourself.
>>736103829Cope and seethe, irrelevant Dubya babby. Borderlands 2 is objectively Top 3 FPS of all time.
>>736103829this series is good until 4, which is unfathomably bad
>>736103967>Borderlands 1 was good. The rest were shit.Wrong. B2 is one of the best games ever made. B1 is still broken piece of shit after 57 released versions. Don't get me wrong, I replayed B1 more than any other game in the series, but it is just not that good. Music is what holds it together.
>>736107847>A game entirely about shooting hordes and hordes of alien chr*stfaggotsWhichever Halo is best (3) is one of the other Top 3 FPSes alongside Borderlands 2
>>7361062921,2 and Tactics mog New Tranny so much it's not even funny.
>>736103829>>736107994i forgot Wonderlands existsthis series was good until Wonderlands
>>736104117but you can play with british people and openly insult them
>>736108343Honestly I hear it was actually decent but got fucked over by lack of support from gearbox.
>>736108098Shut the fuck up, Anthony Burch.
>>736103829Borderlands 1 was good. 8/10 for the time. 6.5/10 now showing its age. Specifically before the dlc. The DLC is when it went over the top wacky tacky humor. There are parts of the DLC that are still fun though, in spite of the writing. Borderlands 2 is when it turned bad.
>>736108462the core gameplay was pretty good but the instanced dungeon arenas were complete dogshit and were a solid 67% of the game, and the level cap was absurdly low because muh D&Dand then basically no real DLC on top of that
>>736103829Series peaked here https://youtu.be/JdKG0sslKjY?si=0VDlB5l7E6sddoGi
>>736108462I really enjoyed it, because they tried to balance skills. First BL game since ever where I utilised meele and grenades in all builds. Thank fucking god it doesn't have vehicles.Too many gay pirates though.
I enjoyed 1, and I enjoyed 2. They say 2 was bad because the humour was retarded but I played it as a retarded teen so it's fine. 3 was fun but the story wasn't very good. Didn't play 4. I think about 80% of the Borderlands hate is less about the games and more about virtue-signalling for people who are permanently stuck in gamergate-tier culture wars (aka, boring jaded faggots)I heard 4 is fun but with bad optimisation, can anyone report?
>>736103829I had fun playing this with my gf doe.
>>736108817>I heard 4 is fun but with bad optimisation, can anyone report?4 is definitely fun. Gameplay alone I would probably say I like it more than the rest. Optimisation IS bad, very bad. But that's not even the worst thing for me>storyWho gives a fuck about story in BL, it's a retarded series aimed more at fun gameplay than anything. But BL4 feels very very weird-sort of similar to the Pre Sequel except even more disjointed and "off" feeling. This feels less like a sequel and more like a soft reboot, which makes sense I guess since they sort of nodded at that fact.The new planet is weird, cool setting I guess but the choice of characters they ported over is very lame. Most of the people from BL1-BL3 are not in the game or even mentioned, it feels less like a swan song and more like a harsh cut and run.
>>736103894She was better in 3
>>736108817>with bad optimisationI play PC games on Steamdeck, I just went through Expedition 33, Stellar Blade and Borderlands 3 all smoothly on maximum settings and I cannot even run BL4.
>>7361089834's main issue at the moment is again, weak content support, limited balancing to fix outright SHIT trees, the open world having limited use, and the story really was kind of overcorrected from being cringe and audacious to being really boring and safe.
>>736103829every game series you ever likedmeanwhile every game series i ever liked that you didn't is the pinnacle of gaming and frankly you should kill yourself
>>736108817>I think about 80% of the Borderlands hate is less about the games and more about virtue-signallinRemoving story is the most downloaded mod for BL3. Seems that you were the one who tried to virtue signal and failed.
3 > TPS > 2 > 4 > 1 > WL
>>736109346Not bad, not bad. BL3 has superior gameplay, but TPS has best story.
>>736103829Borderlands 1 was pretty cool back when it came out.
>>736109346Haven't played 4 and don't know what WL is but my ranking is similar3 > TPS > 2 = 1 (because there's no way I can say 1 is better than 2, but I just liked one better and it does actually do a few things better)
>>736108983>who gives a fuck about story in a game that is entirely, and I do mean ENTIRELY, about shooting your way through the story?Kill yourself for real. You smoothbrained fuckwits are a cancer.The story in 2 was great either way. The writing went downhill (Pre-Sequel) then off a fucking cliff after that.
>>736103829Brutal truth nuke time, Resident Evil is a overall shit series that aged like milk. The only good game in the franchise is RE4 OG and maybe RE5 mercenaries. Everything else isn't worth your time.
Dogshit opinion all the games are good they just get boring without friends. The writing in 3 is atrocious though.
>>736108098bl2 is fucking cringe, characters are giga cringe, slag is fucking cringe, wasting time on grinding endgame is cringe, retarded min maxed builds to play the game are cringe. Bl1 is great, fun and chill but too short (10-12h for base game with all quests) and has ultra boring start
>>736109779I just went through first games and their remakes up to 4 and it is fucking unreal how good these games are and how well they hold, tank controls and all.Five IS underrated though.
Bl was always trash since the first game. Cell shaded loot n shooter with rpg elements, sounds good.Until you realize the best class is always siren. Seriously, tell me the best class in 1, just bl1 alone, and explain why it isn't siren. Best abilities, best dps and op af. Go ahead, convince, I dare you.You can't do it. Can't even justify brick or mordecai in comparison.
fuck you BL3
>>736111114It is the best class, objectively. I tried the others, but Brick and Mortdecai are flat out unusable. The travel speed is also major issue without Lilith.
>>736111826She's rich, she probably has some insurance that clones her back form her last digital backup
>>736103829Gears of war
>>736104117GTA was only good when you were trying to survive with max stars. The story and characters were okay but most of the missions fucking sucked.
>>736111114the best class is whoever gets the best single shot alpha strike skills. who needs to cover their screen in bullshit special effects when you can just shoot a boss in the face and it dies right away
Borderlands and Dead Island were only played a lot because people still appreciated the concept of playing video games with people in another state or country back then. The games themselves were pretty fucking mediocre but they were fun to play while shooting the shit with random people or with friends.
>>736103829Pokemon
>>736113476I sank thousands of hours into BL franchise and I have yet to play a single second of multiplayer.
>>736109779RE5 campaign is better than mercenaries, stop LARPing.
>>736114501I'm sorry
>>736103829On paper, I should love the Borderlands series.>Enjoy Diablo style games>Enjoy FPS games>Finally play BL2 for the first time a week or two ago>Characters only have 1 ability>Takes awhile to get good guns>Takes awhile before builds get to dumb fun territoryIt just made me want to play Grim Dawn.>>736113932This but unironically. Pokemon has always been an okay series. Similar to Harry Potter, I think Pokemon just came out at the right place, at the right time. If it came out for the first time today, it wouldn't have been as big.
>>736104221Get the striped shotgun from the pirate dlc where it reloads after every shot and you're unstoppable.
>>736103829The first one bored me real fast. Reluctantly tried the second one with a friend, thinking the fun wif frens factor would make it more tolerable, only to have dropped the game even quicker.
>>736106292I have searched my feelings and I have come to the conclusion that they are all garbage, NV in particular.
>>736115378Saar
>>736105017>enemies are just bullet spongesHappens on literally any shooter rpg.>movement feels like playing with action figuresBl2 movement is fine and 3 onwards is actually pretty good so no>endgame is grinding for rare dropsWhat endgame nigga its a campaign game you beat it and get done with it the """endgame""" is just if you want to play more without creating another character.
>>736108291That game is so bad.Hey run into a part thats hard with the gear and spells youve been finding? Its all gone cause you died now its basically impossible fuck yourself.
Grand Theft Auto
>>736103829Gameplay and music/atmosphere are still good.
>>736107216NV needs like ten mods just to run
>>736119762Nope, you can install the game and play it start to finish without any major issues
>>736119762Works on my machine :)
>>736120195>>736120293well it's your personal right to still be using windows 7, but you really shouldn't have it connected to the internet
>>736120320But I run win 11 and this pc is barely over a year old. Still works on my machine :)
>>736120320Just say you're inept and can't use computers, zoomer
>>736120424>But I run win 11so you're retarded>>736120453all of NV's technical issues are very well-documented
>>736120582There are recordings of people on YouTube playing the game from start to finish on all kinds of rigs. You don't need to make shit up to hate New Vegas.
>>736120582>so you're retardedAnd yet I was able to get my game to run while you apparently can't.
>>736120669wearing a dress doesn't make you a woman
>>736120731I agree, which is why I don't understand Bethesda added it to Fallout 4 and 76, the first Fallout games you could wear a dress as man
