It’s okay to not be SUBTLE. but you need to be FUNNY. Saints Row 3 wasn’t subtle in the slightest, but it was hilarious.
Borderlands 3 has this awful thing where it’s clearly confident that it’s making you bust your gut with laughter, which just makes the numerous unsuccessful attempts at humour flop that much harder. And it’s relentless the entire time.
As for inventory - I’ve basically stopped looking at greens. I’ll pick them up if I know I’m close to a place to sell them and don’t need the space, but I won’t even check their stats to see if they are any good. It’s just not practical to sift through them all, because I’m at a point where it seems like every other enemy is dropping one. Whites I won’t touch in any circumstance - just leave em on the ground.
Blues I will pick up still, and take a quick look at them - if nothing else, they will sell for good money. Purples I will take a good look at, unless they are from a manufacturer I can’t stand (ie. Tediore).
And of course, I’ve hung on to every orange thus far - though frankly, a lot of them haven’t been great either. The problem with oranges is that a ton of them have unique gimmicks… and a lot of those gimmicks make them annoying to use. The ones that are good are REALLY good, but the rest just go right in my bank.
Temperamentally speaking, Tyrene is basically identical to Jack - arrogant, dismissive, sarcastic, pops on your ECHO constantly to make it clear that they don’t consider you anything more than a nuisance, and deliver “wacky”, irreverent bits about how cruel and apathetic they are. That is Jack to a T.
Obviously in terms of backstory and goals, there’s some difference… though it ultimately just comes down to the same as Jack’s: They want the vaults. I’m still not at all clear why Tyrene and her brother want them, or how their finding them poses a threat to the galaxy itself, as annoying underwear guy says early in the game… but that’s what the game tells me is at stake, so okay.
Of course, Tyrene and her brother have an additional layer of annoyance on top, and that’s their grating, put-on, radio DJ voices. It obviously makes sense for the gimmick, but it’s a chore to listen to. And when they deliver lines like “Like, Share and Obey”, my eyes roll back into my head.
Faster than GTA? Oh, wait that’s Take 2, not 2K. I always get those confused. Silly division naming.
Here’s the official PR for the sales figures:
I still can’t believe how they misinterpreted their analytics on adding new character classes. I’m trying to level up just a single alt and it’s a daunting and tedious slog. So many unskippable cutscenes, so much sitting around waiting while NPCs have their monologues, so many “Talk to Lilith” quest steps (Why don’t you just use the Echo you’ve been using this whole time to talk with, dumbass?).
I highly doubt there’s not an appetite for new classes in this sort of game, it’s just that having to replay the campaign is a chore. This game is desperately in need of “Adventure Mode” once you’ve beaten the campaign with a character. I’d love to be leveling up multiple alts but after my cloud save got eaten again, losing 3 hours of quest progress on my alt, I don’t think I have the stomach for it anymore. It’s more likely that I’ll just set the game aside at this point, which is nuts since I have a severe case of altitis in games like this.
Another thing they need to fix (aside from the poor performance and technical issues) is the “You can’t do that because someone is in a menu” crap. It makes trying to play via matchmaking a pain in the ass. One person can hold up 3 others because they went AFK while looking at their inventory or skill trees. No one can travel anywhere, switch zones, do anything because “Someone is a menu”. FFS, it should be up to the host or at least a vote or something. I’m trying to make up my lost save progress by joining other people, but almost every game ends up falling apart because someone sits in a menu and everyone else gets impatient and leaves.
I’d be happy with more vending machines in areas. It’s kind of ridiculous that most places only have one set of vending machines. The thought of going back through those areas with the small beginner backpack makes me sweat.
At a point in the game, the game has a pop-up that asks “Do you want to skip content you already played on another session?” Or somesuch - It doesnt really work (For me) , but it seems like they did have something in mind, along those lines.
When the final DLC this summer dropped for Borderlands 2, it was nice that you could just create a level 30 character who was finished with all the main story content, but not any of the dlc. It gave me a chance to try the Mechromancer and Psycho dlc classes I never bothered with.

How does one use these codes as a ps4 user?
Do I need some epic account?
You need a SHIFT account. The page for Shift Codes was linked to above, it’s either 2K or Gearbox. It links up with whatever platform you have the game on, so I have it linked to my Steam Account, PSN account and Xbox Live account, and each code then adds stuff to each account usually.
Yeah, you input the codes at one of these links. Both of them seem to work.
Oh that’s a nice reminder: I should tie in my Epic account before I enter any more Shift Codes.
Be interesting to see the split between console and PC. See if the Epic Store exclusive has had any effect on that side of things.
Given these numbers, it’s actually looking like more PC sales than one would have expected. Rule of thumb is 25% on PC, 25% on Xbox, 50% on PS4. The Gamstat estimate for PS4 is 1.6M players after five days. Which this close to launch basically is the same as copies sold.
Hard to make the numbers work with the PC selling just the usual 25%. The Xbox share would need to be obscenely high. Maybe it’s the apparently miserable performance on consoles?

That shift code has expired, apparently.
