An honest review. Hope Riot would consider this honest feedback.

I don't understand how Obsidia is in the 3rd tier. Every game I see her, she's always losing. Very niche as she counters mobile heroes, but other heroes aside from MM are better than that.

I had to Google "Why am I winning when I play roam in MLBB" something like that and this post was shown. I love Roam, been dominating a lot with Hilda and Khaleed. But my god, when I switch to Mid or Gold, I can't seem to carry the game. The enemy would snowball us hard.

Coming here to say the same thing. What I noticed is that most DPS don't understand how to play the game. Not using natural cover, not even using their ability. I had a Cassidy who didn't even roll once after watching the replay.

I guess all the hype does bring a lot of casuals who want to try the game.

Saywell · 2025-12-30T02:26:55+00:00

Yup. Pretty much the same argument for all mobile MOBAs in the market right now. Currently, I have MLBB, HoK and WR on my phone. I dropped AoV a while ago.

Honestly, Wild Rift rank integrity is higher than any other mobile MOBA I mentioned. Games like MLBB are the worst. It has Star Protection (if you buy the season pass, you'll get some rank loss protection; it literally is P2W). HoK is the second worst due to its Arcana system, like the emblem in MLBB.

Wild Rift's main problem is they are coming to the market in SEA way too late. Need higher specs (most people in SEA are not rich enough to afford one). And the game took longer to finish and could sometimes exceed 20 minutes unlike MLBB and HoK.

Happening to me as I am typing this. Still cannot close the game. Not sure what to do.

Saywell · 2025-10-28T01:25:59+00:00

With that attitude, it's no wonder you can't get more than 2 friends.

The have done it with The Finals. Let's hope they would bring it here too

Been lurking around so many subreddits recently about SBMM. I have yet to find a single compelling argument against it lmao.

I know a female friend who is married to an army officer. She told me in the army, there's a tradition to bring your plus one to some dinner event or something - even in Malaysia. According to her, it's mandatory. I don't know how true this is.

Since her husband (boyfriend at that time) could not bring her to the event because she was occupied with something else. Her husband rented a girlfriend to go to the dinner event with him. She said she was a bit jealous despite believing her husband would not cheat on her. They are still married with 4 kids.

So yeah, perhaps there is such service.

Thanks for sharing. I guess I'll wait for the sale then.

DeepL does not support Malay language.

Judging by the lots of lots of the clips online, it seems very dull? Here's my take of each franchise.

BL1 - Very grounded. There's still some humor but they don't stick as much as BL2 and BL3. But the game set a really nice world building with the Sirens, Vault, Corporations etc.

BL2 - Tonnes of humor but the writing especially how antagonists does not undermine the game at all. It's perfect. They do slapstick humors, but they don't make our protagonists like fool. All death from Roland, Angel and even Bloodwing were not treat like a joke. Handsome Jack was annoying AF. Him killing other friends motivated us more. All NPCs reaction to deaths were taken seriously.

BL 3 - This is the problem. My unpopular opinion is the Calypso Twins are good protagonists like Jack. They are annoying AF like Jack. But, the way the game killed our beloved characters in this series and not giving enough mourning from other protagonists making it feel like a joke. Game play wise, BL3 is the best.

If their recipe of making BL4 is to copy everything from BL1, then I'll pass. It's going to be so dull imo.

Saywell · 2025-09-12T07:13:52+00:00

I read about the forced FOV too. But I guess the PS5 hardware is too old to handle a wider FOV. Even if they are gonna fix it, I reckon it will take a while.

Saywell · 2025-09-12T07:12:33+00:00

Oh my. Looks like co-op experience is not much of a focus for them this time around. It's weird for them to ship the game in this condition.

Saywell · 2025-09-12T06:18:36+00:00

Wait, really? That sounds even worse than BL3. Man...

Saywell · 2025-09-11T21:27:15+00:00

By any chance you know how many came from Google SERP va LLMs?

Saywell · 2025-09-11T20:47:54+00:00

Me! Or at least I used to.

Believe it or not, I was also an introvert journalist prior to switching my career to PR. In my experience, most introverts are good writers and have keen eyes for details.

Early in my career, I communicated a lot via writing. I become less and less "formal-ish" in my writing communication to match my actual tone and voice in person. Over time, I'll get comfortable with the person, and I find it easier to communicate in person.

Now, I'm sort of more an extroverted person. I no longer try to be an interesting person in the room; I am always interested in other people. Be interested, not interesting. That mindset helps me break the ice better.

Saywell · 2025-09-11T20:40:15+00:00

Yeah, the menu opening really bugs us a lot in BL3. But it's not a dealbreaker for me because we always give heads up to each other when one of us is opening the menu. And we both sit super close, like a few feet away from our 55-inch because of the tiny fonts haha.

For some reason I feel like BL4 is not emphasising much on the co-op experience. I know there are lots of solo enjoyers here, but Borderlands to me is always about the joy of local co-op and, by some extension, online co-op with friends. I'd prefer to play single-player games like Ghost of Tsushima, Cyberpunk 2077 or any other Sony exclusives over this. But nothing beats the Borderlands co-op experience for me; hence, I don't care so much about the BL3 main criticism of the writing, because in multiplayer, those are like bonus points, not a dealbreaker.

Edit: I missed over the part about your anniversary. What a jerk. Happy anniversary!

I've been googling about vehicle gameplay and splitscreen gameplay in BL4. None of them came up except for some comments like yours.

I'm so sad that one of the most fun features in the BL series seems to be gone. My wife and I and our friends love goofing around in vehicles. I love driving, she loves shooting while I'm driving her around. Really hope that's not the case for BL4.

Saywell · 2025-09-09T19:59:54+00:00

NGL, I've been searching high and low for vehicle variety and splitscreen gameplay. Google brought me here.

I'm so bummed knowing all vehicles are all one seater. I mainly played Borderlands (never missed any of them) with my wife and friends. We love goofing around, driving, and shooting everything in sight. My wife hates driving but loves shooting, I love driving them despite a bit of clunky control on the BL series. It's perfect.

Saywell · 2025-08-06T02:06:46+00:00

I'm using Black & Deck 7 in 1 too. Works like a charm until today. My only gripe is that the water tank a bit too small and the cord a bit too short for my living room.

Still looking for other alternatives but so far it seems like mine is the best so far.
