Popular Post Abby_TheLastofUs Posted April 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Gearbox has been working on the game for a few years now, and it will feature an all new cast. About Take a stand against ruthless corporate overlords in this narrative-driven adventure! Within the perpetually war-torn metropolis of Promethea, you’ll control Anu, Octavio, and Fran on the worst day of their lives. Help these three lovable losers as they endeavor to change the world (and maybe even save it)! Face down a planetary invasion, vicious vault monster, and cold-hearted capitalist in this cinematic thrill ride where what happens next is up to you! Meet a motley cast full of misfits, assassin bots, and talking guns in this race to the top! It’s time to fight back against exploitation and corporate greed. It’s time to make Mayhem your business. Key Features Decide the fates of altruistic scientist Anu, her ambitious, “streetwise” brother Octavio, and the fierce, frogurt-slinging Fran. With nothing left to lose and everything to gain, you’ll claw and con your way through this thrilling five-part story! The Borderlands aren’t just home to Vault Hunters, psychos, and weapons-corp CEOs—they’re full of downtrodden, intrepid civilians just trying to get by. With a host of returning and fresh faces, this unforgettable tale is sure to delight fans new and old. The decisions you make determine how your story ends in unexpected ways. Whether it’s Anu’s vision of a universe that markets more than weapons, Octavio’s dreams of fame and fortune, or Fran’s frosty plot for revenge—their success or failure depends on you.

kidson2004 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Hell yeah!! I really enjoyed Tales from the Borderlands, and I'm so looking forward to the sequel!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakingthegreen Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 The best Telltale game! Odd this one doesn't seem to be developed by any specific adventure game developers, let alone Telltale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconkicks Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Thanks for the info! This is great news, I was so pleasantly surprised with how well done the first one was. Still cracks me up when I think about that nerdy character being all secretly buff and everyone not knowing how to react to it. Great game!

The writing between chapters 4 and 5 is on another level indeed. Literally stopped me from buying another Telltale game ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Yeah, I'm a bit cautious about this one. I LOVED Tales from the Borderlands, bar none my favorite Telltale game. I also love Borderlands...it's my FPS of choice. Some people are COD fans, other Destiny...I'm Borderlands. But this NOT being made by Telltale, even the new Telltale that we know nothing about until The Wolf Among Us 2 and The Expanse come out..it's hard to get completely excited. It's on my radar now though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Murda_Murk Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I'm in regardless I loved the first one probably the funniest game I've ever played. Never been a huge borderlands fan but I love the world and atmosphere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darling Baphomet Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Not to be cynical, but considering how much Gearbox fucked over all the characters from Tales in 3, unless it uses different characters I'm not sure how to feel about this. Fiona and Gortys just got yeeted into the void and Rhys became a boring executive with a shitty moustache. I would suggest it was largely Telltale's influence that made TFTB a decent story. As far as I'm concerned, the only Borderlands game that had decent writing was 1. Past that it all became zany sunday morning cartoon type stuff. I miss the 'grim alien western' vibes of 1; boring at times, but I prefer that over having to watch Scooter scream, "IZ YOU HYPERION?!" at me every single playthrough. Hell, the General Knoxx DLC had better humor than any of the games that came after. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I was a betting man, I'd put money on Fiona, Gortys and/or Loader Bot making an appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems unlikely as both Fiona and Gortys were voiced by union voice actors and Gearbox has been avoiding working on them. Not sure about Loader Bot, though. Maybe they'll just recast them, like they did with Claptrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrBloodmoney Posted April 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2022 hmmm... I wonder...? On one hand, it's a sequel to the only good Borderlands game... ? ...on the other hand, it's being made in-house, presumably by at least some of the same people who "wrote" the other Borderlands games... ? ...so a wait and see on this one for me, I guess? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantes_994 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I L O V E D the first game so much in my top 10 games of all time! Hope Gearbox doesn't fuck it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FocusDR Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Let’s see how many bugs issues and glitches we get with this game. They are awesome games but disgraceful how bad they are put together. Yet I continue to support them by buying their games ????♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djb5f Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It’ll be interesting if it is similar to the choice-based narrative games that Telltale used to make. The description says narrative-driven but nothing was shown or detailed about the decisions you make while progressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever these "key alumni" are remains a mystery, but it does say that there will be "hundreds of choices". The original Telltale is dead. The people have all gone their separate ways. The name will live on as a zombie brand because it can. Let's all be a little open and wait to pass judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 This game already got a SHiFT Code at PAX West for something called a HOT Loader Vaultlander. HCX3B-WBTTJ-3TTJT-BJJT3-5XK95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
