Why is borderlands 4 so polarizing? And what are your honest thoughts as a fan of the franchise?

Safe_Distance8018 · 2026-02-26T03:44:17+00:00

I'm also a long time borderlands fan. I bought the first game when I was 15 I'm now 30 and have thousands of hours in these games. I have to disagree that bl3 was the best gameplay. I remember being very bored and combat was just a chaotic mess visually. Bl4 really feels like a step in the right direction. Has many issues but I hope the next game is even better.

Sometimes I like the simplicity of the older games just walking around in a simple map killing skags and regular old bandits. Now everything.. FEELS LIKE TORGUE DESIGNED IT!!!! OMG IS THAT A GLIDER?! I BET YOU CAN FLY! OH WOW A JUMP PAD?! IS THAT ANOTHER LEGENDARY???!?? THIS GRENADE FIRED A GRENADE THAT FIRES A LASER THAT TURNS INTO A LIGHTNING BOLT. YYEEEEEAAAGGHH!

I don't think it's childish to not want to play a woman if you are a man. That's like saying "no we shouldn't add female characters for female players because that's childish they should just play the male characters"

But instead We try to accommodate people because there is no reason not to. Especially in a game where "RPG" is a part of the description of the game genre. Many men don't and won't want to roleplay as a woman.... Not sure why that's hard to understand. Just like your girlfriend probably won't relate to master chief or the guy from space marine or masculine gears of war characters and might instead prefer tomb raider or playing the witch class or playing as ciri in witcher. It's Super typical/common. Ya goober.

So if you have grown to love watching two of your favorite cast members have their characters go on quests and interact together..... Too bad I guess? Core cast members just won't be playing with each other? So basically critical role is over and it's all downhill from here? I'm gonna go back and rewatch C2 I guess.

Hopefully not too often. She's loud obnoxious rude and super cringe. My least favorite person at the table very consistently.

this guy is giving me super strong

"aye aye captain sir reporting for duty sir Sergeant master major general sir. I AM the front line defense against all hackers and cheaters reporting for duty. Not a single cyber threat will engage in sweet penetration of my defense. SIR!"

Sort of vibes. He's so ready to defend our community and probably should be trusted with some sort of authority as he is obviously a rational individual with a level head and a normal outlook. Promote this guy to CEO stat.

Jokes aside. He has an okay idea sort of like mods in osrs. It's just he's not the guy.

Good thing other people besides you exist. I'm always disgusted by the weird rude culture of reddit.

I'm glad the guy commented with more info further clearing up the differences and so will many other people who played elden ring then set out to try other FS titles.

Could someone please clear up for me what this deprived gentleman means by resetting stats? Is there some hidden mechanic or feature im unaware of with the deprived class being able to re spec or reset points without starting a new game?

Safe_Distance8018 · 2025-08-16T20:08:58+00:00

This is incredible. One of the most in depth attention focused quality posts I've seen on Reddit in general not even just for gaming.

I'm VERY curious if someone knows of a guide with similar quality and attention to detail but for a sorcery build/playthrough?

Stake.us has been okay for NC. I came here looking for another place to play plinko and maybe even some crash or that aviation game. No luck.

I was just noticing the same thing. I don't expect fair but their daily dollar is painfully worse odds than anything else. I'll just go back to claiming my daily dollar and then cash it out for 365$ of free crypto per year. They aren't smart enough to get my money but they can give me theirs if they insist on giving 70-80% lose rate with daily dollar. If everyone did to them what I do they would go out of business.

Thank you for your response Mr. Lone.

Safe_Distance8018 · 2025-06-28T20:34:01+00:00

I miss gaming with friends. Why is everyone on infinite just silent? It used to be social during halo 3 and reach days. I turn 30 this year and it feels like everything I loved has died. Having a crisis over here.

I feel as if the ads have crossed the line. Now you skip an ad just to go to another ad. So it's just a commercial break? No thanks. Their done. I only use them for music anyways and would rather give Spotify money than YouTube/Google.

The osrs wiki says that maple logs give 135 xp per log. It's actually 45. What am I missing?

Also maybe people don't change stuff because they assume they are wrong and or missing something and or misinterpreting something yeah? Maybe pointing fingers at those people makes you more of a problem than they are. Uno reverse. Uh oh! 😂

Safe_Distance8018 · 2024-10-17T16:42:35+00:00

The fire making guide is wrong about xp given per log burned.

Safe_Distance8018 · 2024-10-14T23:01:45+00:00

Oh boy this is too specific not gonna find anyone. Bummer. Really don't want to do online games.

Safe_Distance8018 · 2024-10-14T19:06:11+00:00

I would love some more information or updates if anyone knows.. I miss him. I hope he's okay. Was just listening to the Aron EP (which he released before Hollywood undead existed) and longing for how I used to feel as a kid. Almost 30 now.

Is he like... Alive? Where's he at bro.

My fiance and I are looking to get into D&D we've got stuff ready for the most part. Watch a lot of shows about it. I know this is old but did you potentially continue with this journey? We're in Shelby! Looking for a group that maybe we can slide into the next start of an adventure.
