The 4th really is dead boring.
It’s basically just an expensive bad joke.
Fuck you, Randy. Give me my money back.

based, fuck Randy

Just a heads-up: Borderlands 4 isn’t just boring, it also has ridiculously high hardware performance requirements.
Because the game forces ray tracing, even an RTX 5090 struggles to maintain a stable 60fps at 4K.

Unless you're a big, bloated AAA company, I can't see any benefit to using UE5 over UE4 if you're set on using Unreal to begin with.

It’s just to save money.
If you make ray tracing mandatory, you won’t need to manually create a rasterised lighting system.
You can simply sack the artists.

Maya died in 3 and her death was utterly pointless because it was all to setup some little retard nobody likes.
>>
>>740048871
Honestly the worst part about 4 is it's characters/story. It isn't funny like 2 or arguably 3, but it isn't badass like 1. You are the most sincere nice group of mercenary treasure hunters with out even a tinge of edge. Everyone is also written in such a cookie cutter way that it feels like a draft of what the characters need to get across, but with no real flare to it. making it once again the game where everyone tells me how great Lilith is, including me, the character that has never met her doesn't help. They course corrected to hard into having no identity.

Yeah, it's like a weird overcorrection from how people thought 3 was too wacky so instead everyone is pretty dry.

It's not even real open world, there's invisible walls everywhere. Oh, there's a big tall rock in the middle of the field? Try and go over it nope invisible wall so you're forced to go around it. I would say more but it's late at night and I'm tired but I will say in 2025 this game has one of the worst grapple hooks in any game I've ever played in my life.

In Borderlands 1 it was a much more grounded story. You're a merc coming to Pandora to find the mythological Vault and retire rich from the treasure inside. Along the way you fight bandits and race an enemy faction to the Vault and everything takes place on one planet and the corporations are more like god like entities as we scurry under their shadow. 3 was full blown space high fantasy trapezing around worlds and all the women had magic space powers and everything centered around them.

I'd genuinely argue that performance killed it. When a huge chunk of your playerbase can't play it on their system, can't afford it, and then can't play co-op which is a major focus of the series, what are you even left with?

I thought the whole point of games being stylized with cel-shading and other methods was to hide hardware limitations anyways. Muddy textures in Borderlands 1 and 2 never bothered me because everything looked like a cartoon blob to a certain extent. Shit is baffling honestly. I don't know how they thought this would work out. Did they genuinely believe people would love Borderlands so much that they'd either play at choppy 30fps or upgrade to 5090s?
>>
>>740053978
It's main weakness for now in my opinion is not enough to do and the open world is meh, some characters still have broken/unviable trees.
>>
>>740053969
with 3 though granted I only played as Zane, but he was a swashbuckling weirdo, while playing as Ca$h in 4 his personality is he has a voodoo accent and is a nice guy. The first 2 also have the excuse that the playable characters don't speak like they do PS onwards, but if they have nothing of interest to say (I assume so they can all fit into the same response) why bother.

>>740050745
Because Epig doesn't support it anymore.

I mean they could totally pull an Ubisoft and use Unreal Engine 2 20 years later, but that requires the developers to understand Unreal Engine 4 (in your question) extensively and be willing to "hack" it to mold their stuff into it, which a lot of modern developers aren't capable of because they grew up on middleware and never had to hack the thing to do what they want.


Last Unreal Engine 2 title (so far?) is Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist, BTW.

DEI is certainly one of the issues, but it is not the primary cause.
The main reason is that game company CEOs have forgotten that video games are creative products.
Developing video games is different from building houses or manufacturing cars; there are no absolute industrial standards to follow in game development.
If you repeatedly release the same game, players will eventually grow bored and stop buying it.
Therefore, you must constantly evolve your games and launch new titles.
Executives at game companies mistakenly believe that game developers are highly interchangeable.
They have sacked long-serving staff who asked for pay rises and recruited large numbers of complete novices with no understanding of game development.
The aim was, surprisingly, to save money.
The result has been a sharp rise in game development costs, whilst quality has plummeted.

I barely played the first borderlands because it looked weird. Played and finished the 2nd game though but didn't redo it with better gear.

One time, while playing the 2nd game, i came across a mission or quest or w/e it was during which a male character was comically misogynistic (at the time back in 2012 i wasn't thinking in these terms, the character just registered as weird because it stood out in my then decade+ old gaming experience as being very weird due to how it was written), it spoke rudely to a female character for no reason, who ends up either killing him or blasting him into space or blowing up his shack which was coincidentally placed on a cliff somewhere in the game, i don't really remember because it's been so long ago.

Back then i simply didn't register this as woke horseshit, the term didn't exist and i wasn't aware that people working in games thought like that, a male character made just to be blown up for political feminist reasons, but as the years passed and the gamergate thing blew up, with the subsequent feminist destruction of gaming since 2014, i started to deeply dislike that company and their games, so i never bought another game from them. That was my "gillette" or "jaguar" or "budlight" moment, where a corporation virtue signals to an audience which is unaware that they're being propagandized.

No. Its good for the lore continuity in sense the story is still engaging make you the player want to lean into more in Borderlands universe and story, unlike BL3 and BL4 they just don't care anymore because they hate TPS and Tales from the Borderlands lore piece written by people who know how to write humor and shit. Pierre Sherotte was the best Borderlands game writer they could ever hire after Teltale's disaster bankruptcy but, Randy Pissford don't give a shit.

Also, hey people still hate Anthony Burch? Randy said "Hell yeah hire that guy to write that New Tales and destroy it lore continuity from the last best Tales game, don't write anything about what happened to Sasha, Fiona and Rhys during that clifhanger ending, just add diverse and obesse character sitting on wheelchair to save Borderlands day. Because Borderlands 4 gonna baddass than ever!!"

The worst thing is, it doesn't look finished. That horrific area in the left looks like it's using placeholder textures. They managed to make a game that looks substantially worse than their last - Tiny Tina's Wonderlands - which was made remotely through Covid.

Damn this game sold 22 million copies!
>After being out for over 14 years on dozens of platforms and numerous sales were it was literally sold for a few dollars.

That being said the studio has clearly burned through any good faith they ever had with their fans. BL3 probably sold well despite being an epic exclusive for a year but the IP no longer has that value.

I didn't care for the game becoming open world slop. I would have rathered it remained how it was with linked zones.

I didnt even bother finishing the game. Played 2 hours and was bored because it was even more open world shit that made borderlands 3 look good in comparison.

2.5 million - 1

That's not how shit works. 3 was fucking terrible so nobody bought 4. People can just play Warframe now and have 60 characters for free.

4 selling so poorly is because 3 was lacking.
The faggot writers need to kill themselves with their girl power bullshit and you having to sit AFK by the NPC to listen to their shit and interact when they're done.
They ruined the flow of the game just so the worst part of the game could be even more in your face.
>>
>>740049052
You're not wrong about the game running like shit, but as a more general point it seems like game developers should just not provide an actual ultra setting because retards only judge performance based on how well "ultra" runs, not how the game looks.
Like if ultra was actually just a renamed medium those people would celebrate the performance of the game.

Borderlands 1 and 2 were shilled endlessly and put on the most easily accessible system of the time. 3 and 4 in comparison were sold as niche products in boutiques. What did they expect?

I still remember when my workplace was going to require me to go to a doctors office and get tested for the kung flu before I could even go into work, just because I didn't get the clotshot.
Thankfully they very quietly ditched the plan and even stopped the facemask requirements soon after that.

The woke stems from Anthony Burch wearing girl's clothes, letting his girlfriend fuck other dudes, and having one of the bulls steal his Wii U. Multiplied by Randy being a generational retard.

None of that shit seeped into the game until journos got butthurt at Randy being an actual human being and making a harmless joke.

I highly suspect it is mostly console gamers buying this shit. Why? Because this shit simply does not run on around 80% of PCs.

Also the game fucking sucks. This shit is actually somehow just as bad as Borderlands 3.

Borderlands 1 and 2 with mods still wins....it's over.

the fall off is way more extreme these days
im not exactly sure why
if your game doesnt have momentum online pre release and the week post release it falls off a cliff. it hit even Capcom like a truck with Monster Hunter
>>
>thousands of devs just don't know how to do it good!
Correct. I work at a company making B2B software and we need like 10x the amount of nudevs to do something the old guys from the 90s and early 2000s could do on their own
And I'm not a hypocrite, I'm part of the nudevs who dunno shit
>>
>>740080518
the pathetic part is that World still pretty much had zones with the shittiest corridor loading screens and even with Wilds Capcom struggled to create locales bigger than most maps in Xenoblade 1.
Shadow of the Colossus had an open world 20 years ago and Dynasty Warriors had interconnected zones without loading screens years before that.
Capcom is lacking behind 20 years.
I'm going easy on Capcom for only using japanese studios for comparison.

I kind of stopped caring when I saw the lack of polish on basic view model elements animations etc. Expectations aren’t that high there was never a need for open world or realtime lighting cycle but gameplay being unpolished is unforgivable. Game devs have found ways to fake all this stuff for years and yet even with all the actual implementation it looks worse than mobile games.
>>
They still haven't surpassed Tiny Tina's. Actually having abilities that are fun and shit
>>
>>740048871
well they are like pokemon they arent evolving the gameplay or mechanics
all borderlands need is a way to deconstruct guns in order to makeperfect one since the odds of finding one is damn near impossible
AND
a way to upgrade the guns instead of just selling them off. ive got perfect guns at a low level but pointless since im just gonna have to toss them eventually

these 2 things people have been wanting since bl2 and would make it one of the best selling gundiablolikes ever

I actually bought 4 since I haven't played a single game since 2. Mechanically speaking it's very good and the gameplay is much more fast paced with fun character builds. I think it failed for two reasons: people are just done with Borderlands especially since PoE2 and D4 have the loot grinder genre on lockdown and it was one of the most unoptimized UE5 pieces of trash I have ever played. My 4070 was bugging out at times even.
