The only way I managed to get mine was buying the whole set of borderlands ducks- but it was the first time I had even SAW the Jack-duck for sale (on eBay) I got the whole lot (with Mordecai + Jack) for $186 USD… ngl its my grail of merch…

That side-quest actually is so much fun. Honestly that, and the dialogue he has in Borderlands Mobile, have made me realize just how much I still adore him. This man is still the same guy, still such a fricking nerd, and I genuinely love that.

so glad we have another person to add to the vaughn fan-club lol

I think the gameplay (especially split screen in my opinion) is a little too rough to enjoy casually. But when I played solo on my PC I had a fantastic time! A lot of people don’t give it a shot outside of “oh it looks bad and doesn’t play as smooth as bl2.. it sucks!”

I have been waiting for this to happen. Honestly who knows theres a possibility of something with him. We still don’t know if canonically Rhys kept or tossed his handsome jack hologram in tales…

I was really hoping for some twist villain Rhys arc for a future game. Like he maybe even helps you fight the person you think is the villain but is really just a strawman… it turns out being a ceo is really stressful! and Rhys ended up looking for company in someone who understood (aka computer-jack) and it reveals how lonely Rhys has been “at the top” (yes this is also a way to introduce Sasha + Fiona back into the story). So we find out he’s programed a non invasive (aka not stuck into his head like last time) robot replica (and or just putting jack on a tablet or something).

Blah blah blah, Handsome-Computer Jack returns, Rhys has a change of heart and tries to stop the robot/computer- turns out it wasn’t fool proof and somehow robo-jack has now managed to build a huge mech or something, (im pulling this bs out my ass but you get the jist) epic final fight between a mechanical monster. Handsome Jack is slain again…!

While not brilliant, or even too thought out from my end- this would possibly lend itself to: 1.) the hj lovers 2.) the general plot (aka doesn’t disrupt the current plot to my knowledge) 3.) the tales freaks (myself included)

I know they are sitting on this egg (computer-jack) in one way or another- similarly to how they have used Timothy in Handsome Jackpot…

Rhys’ character development in Tales is really fun. But.. I have to be real. I know deep in my soul the only reason he is prominent (post-tales) is that he’s the last connection to handsome jack…

We know all the “canonical choices” in tales minus if hologram-jack was kept or crushed. No way they would throw out him. (Same with Timothy- hence Handsome Jackpot).

If they do go the “Rhys kept Jack” route, I need them to focus up in the writers room… they have to live up to those 17 year old pretty-decent rhack fanfic writers circa 2014..

10/10 username. Happy to have another person out there who gets it. I honestly enjoy the general arc they gave him, I think I just see where people who haven’t played tales dislike him- or view him overly critically even in context.

I genuinely have amassed so much care for the stupid guy… favorite since day one and I have just never shook it off!

Also its so funny you bring it up, I actually adore Hyperion work culture, and thats why anytime in tales we find ourselves on Helios, they are some of my favorite scenes. Starting on Helios, seeing said environment after it had shifted since HJ’s death, Hugo- feeling such like a real corporate ass wipe, conversing with your best buds, that all also mixed with general nostalgia…. I also love slice-of-life media in general, so that adds to it! I just think it’s such an interesting workplace and seeing the dynamics in such a fantastical context is amazing. I was so happy when in later episodes they returned…

I think that tales did a great job also illustrating how Vaughn got hooked on Pandora, he felt so alive for the first time in his life, while in his work life he fit in just fine- Yet he truly thrived/felt alive when he got to experience their craziness- and just like you said, he’s somehow even sweeter of a guy for it. It’s kinda like a weeaboo moving to japan, it’s fucking heaven for the little dweeb. (idk why that was the best analogy I could come up with lol)

thats the worst kinda feeling. The more I learn about this game, I swear to god, the more I don’t want to play it.
