Telltale takes a good thing and gives it to you 4 more times.Tales from the Borderlands is a five part episodic game series from the creators of The Wolf Among Us and The Walking Dead: A Telltale Games Series. They could have gotten away with just having one solid one at the very beginning of the series, but no. the Opening Music/Credits never disappointed. Oh, and to add one final amazing bit about each episode. Heck, if the Borderlands movie is even half this, it'll be a box office smash. I'm satisfied with the 10-12 hours of pure enjoyment. I can't think of how they could have made this game any better. Not because this is the best of all games this year (which it might be), or that its going to be a great game for everyone (which it could be), but because. which really kinda made me stop and reflect a little at times. at every moment Jack never stops being true to himself. even the 'pearls of wisdom' and revelations he offers Rhys. Just every interaction with him is awesome.

or as a reward/vengeance for 'getting the job done'.Īnd while this isn't really a spoiler to anyone who's obviously played enough not to be afraid to read this far, i'll tag it anyways.

In Borderlands, death either felt tragic. I understand Game of Thrones likes to 'kill the characters you love' but in a game it often felt like the game was punishing me even though I did everything right.

Heck, half of Borderlands' 'charm' is how they find ways to slip in repeat appearances from previous games.ĭeaths ? They feel meaningful, memorable, and occasionally deliberate results of your actions. Everything Game of Thrones (the game) did wrong, Borderlands does right.Ĭameo appearances ? Completely fits in. I *am* a big fan of Game of Thrones, so I thought between the two Telltale games, this one would be the secondstringer. I'm *still* not a big fan of the whole 'diablo/FPS' mashup, but the dark/quirky humor kinda grows on me. I'm not a huge Borderlands fan, or at least, I thought I wasn't, until this game convinced me to play something besides Borderlands 1 and so I picked up Borderlands 2. I am *not* exaggerating when I say it's easily in my top 10 gaming moments. The fight scene in episode 4 is easily one of my favorite and/or most memorable experiences in my history of gaming. So with the final episode just released I just have to post a couple non-spoiler-ish impressions. search didnt turn up a more recent thread for this game.
