Borderlands 3

I haven't completed the game yet, but I'm level 19 and can say it's quite fun. It has a few problems. Multiplayer is quite buggy, and will freeze sometimes. There are returning characters and all sorts of cool ways to destroy enemies. A little complaint I have is the villans here. They are a little weak, they can be a little intresting I guess, but they can't beat Handsome Jack at all.

The gunplay is different feeling and still good. They combat mechanics are similar to Destiny, but this is a way better game than Destiny. It's just the combat that is similar. A great game, fun for everybody. However i recommend playing borderlands 2 first if you haven't, so you can appreciate the characters more. If your a borderlands fan you won't be disappointed. I give it an 8/10

I love Borderlands. I love Borderlands so much, I got into its lore. The Borderlands series has a pretty good storytelling and gameplay to the point where I got sick of it, but keep coming back to it. I was hype when the 3rd game was announced because we haven't had a Borderlands game in a while for about 7, 5, or 4 years. The only thing that was turning me off was the controversy behind this game which made me a little worried. Then the reviews came out, I heard it was the best, it was the worst, it was mediocre at best, and I don't know how I feel about it. I got spoiled about a certain scene which left me disappointed. So finally during Christmas, I got the game.

I do enjoyed the up-step gameplay they introduced, making the whole game more fun. The player's menu is something I'm trying to get used to since this is a new game. The fast-travel is a little issue to me. I don't like the fact that to able to travel somewhere, you have to locate where the fast-travel is to the place you want to good. I have heard about bugs and glitches before I bought the game and they're pretty noticeable. EX: Shooting at a bandit vehicle and makes an explosion sound but no explosion. Although I enjoy the gameplay, I don't like how it's giving me OP weapons everywhere I go. In the previous games, finding powerful weapons is slightly rare but here it's everywhere you loot. In the previous games, you upgrade your class to get better against challenging foes while in BL3, it doesn't feel challenging at all. It makes things too easy and unstoppable.

I honestly don't know to explain the story in this game. Is lazy and uninteresting to go through. The main villains of this game is terrible to see and cringy to watch. This story ruins some previous characters of how they are and has ALOT of plotholes. After looking at Tales of the Borderlands and the Pre-sequel story, I thought the story would be better but nope they dumb it down.

This is the best of this series. The only reason i didn't give it a 10 is because it is not perfect. However, it is pretty close. The new quality of life improvements are great, gameplay is tight, and the story is very good. However, the main antagonists are not nearly as good as Handsome Jack, they try, but they dont quite get there. I will say, if the dlc finds a way to bring Jack back this game may hit a 10.

Don't get me wrong, this is a popular and fun franchise with some great writing and BIG loot system but with it being a triple A title, the game has the worst performance from any game in the series. From terrible Frame rate issues to extremely slow and laggy menu loading screens, these are just the tip of the iceberg of problems. I would have been happy to wait an extra couple of months for the team to release a stable product..

2 player split screen is not great at all. Lag is a consistent issue. Can't read anything with 2 player. Disappointing as they could have fixed it rather than just throwing it out to the masses. Sound isn't great either. Names above players and icons seem to jump around vigorously it's distracting.
