Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

This game is very similar to the first titles from the series, almost feels like a dlc or expansion but long enough to be a standalone chapter in the franchise.
If you played Borderlands and Borderlands 2 you should play this too because as title suggests this is a missing link and it's mandatory to understand the origins of our heroes and villains.
I enjoyed the space theme and low gravity jumps and new mechanics,there is a new rooster of playable characters with the robot being the most fun and memorable.
I have to mention some of the main quests from the story which made me lose my temper , i understand they had to deliver a certain amount of playtime but not like this.. I'm talking about Pickle and his stupid quest, oh and it's secondary mission is even worse somehow. The huge levels and the walking simulator feeling gets in your head after some time,at least there are enemies to shoot everywhere..
This is not the best Borderlands but it can deliver a lot of answers for the series so don't skip it!
My review score
Story - 7
Gameplay- 8
Graphics- 8
Sound - 9
Overall - 8

I came back for the second time and the game is still good, if not better, as the first time.
Great fun with all the characters, satisfying visuals without stressing gpus, funny for the most of the gamers and community still alive for fun or coop achievements.

What else to ask?

It was five years ago when i started this game and i gave up becoz i didnt like it. but i decided to give it another chance and after sevrl hours i noticed that i want to play more and now i got all achvmnts

1st: theres no face mc Shooty
2nd: No Mission rewarding you for commiting suicide
3rd and the worst problem: still cant have sex with moxxi after 3 games.

Another one amazing game in Borderlands series. Events set between bl1 and bl2
At first look it's like same bl2 but Pandora's moon here with low gravity, another vehicles and moonstones instead eridium. First of all this game is about Jack, Handsome Jack crazy and hilarious villian. He "loves" Claptraps, hires Vault Hunters which are pretty familiar characters after playing bl2. We have an opportunity to know about him better by being his ally. This game also has a lot of side quests, random loot and long grind but it may seem different, just it's like more space version of bl2. Most intersting part of game for me was Claptastic Voyage DLC where Jack digitizes Vault Hunters and sends them inside Claptrap's mind, I love those levels so much where enemies much stronger and final boss pretty tough

I can't say this game is better than Borderlands 2 but it feels like something missing between first two games of franchise, and we can understand events in bl2 better after playing this one. It's nice to look on events from eyes of villians. And don't forget to replenish oxygen if you are not a Claptrap

As borderlands 4 is releasing in 2025, and its the 10 year anniversary of the pre-sequel i decided to replay the story on pc from xbox back in 2014. The visuals are excellent the game holds up quite well despite its age and the fact it was made to run on the xbox 360/ps3. I've always enjoyed the pre sequel but this time can see how much slower pace the game can be compared to borderlands 2 or 3. I also find that the map design is very tedious and not thought out well and can cause some frustration and sometimes the art design gets repetitive with not much uniqueness to areas or differences which is a draw back. The big plus for me is the story itself and the outer space theme and direction the team was going with exploring Pandora's moon. The music, gun play and loot are always top notch and wish there was more random encounters or bosses to loot from. Overall i'd rate the game a solid 7.5/10 its definitely worth a play through especially with friends and if the game is on sale its good value will take over 20H to complete the game with the side quests.

The game is miles better than it is believed by Borderlands community. Variety of weapons, the Grinder, classes and skill trees, heroes and story - everything is very versatile and up to best Borderlands standards. The game is not as popular as the others from the series so it is worth diving in from time to time as it is always a fresh experience
