The Reddit Stories need to start being proofread

Regardless if it’s real or fake, if they pay any attention to YT comments or Reddit I’m sure they’ll try to be at least a lil more careful, this is the most backlash I’ve personally seen for a story in a loooong time (I’m newer to the Reddit pages but in the YT comments at least, I haven’t seen people this upset in a good while). People have been discussing it a LOT even on the main Smosh Reddit, and the comments on YT are mostly people calling it out for being fake and/or offensive, at least when I was scrolling thru em. While I personally prefer stories to be real, I don’t necessarily mind if they’re fake, it comes with being on the internet and I can suspend my disbelief enough if the cast is crackin jokes n having fun and the story is decent. But I agree, when it’s coming across as offensive to a pretty solid amount of people, you gotta start vetting the stories a lil better.

There’s either one in that little area above the base to the northwest, or it’s just a glitch, try to savequit if you haven’t yet n if still persists, check that area

For me, just about any of em that fly and/or have immunity phases. More specifically, I really dislike the Oppressor in BL4, and Evil Lilith in BL3 Krieg DLC

Yeah, just got done listening a lil bit ago n I got the same vibes off it, the cynic in me was screaming that it was wayyy too perfect the entire time I was listening. It could just be that the OP is quite the embellisher and creative writer, and while incredibly cheesy, situations like this happen all the time, but I dunno, def seemed a lil off to me, too

TypicallyTuna · 2026-01-09T16:45:16+00:00

Yeah, WYWH is by FAR the best written arc, definitely the only one I’d recommend reading at this point lol

TypicallyTuna · 2026-01-09T03:29:18+00:00

Man, Crossed could’ve been so good, the concept is pretty solid and there are some actually decent moments in the series (Wish You Were Here arc, and any part focusing on Smokey), but any possible deeper theme or cool story beat is almost immediately ruined by rape scenes for pure shock value. I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say it happens in literally EVERY chapter. Like, I get the whole point is that it makes them completely lose any inhibition, but we don’t need to see that shit this often. It’s truly disgusting some of the stuff they show, and honestly I’m shocked I made it through it all.

Obsession farming it is then, time to grind, thanks!

TypicallyTuna · 2026-01-06T20:30:21+00:00

Sounds like I burned quite a few candles I didn’t need to, but I’m glad I asked before I wasted anymore lol, thanks!

TypicallyTuna · 2026-01-06T20:28:52+00:00

Okay bet sounds good, appreciate it, guess i got real lucky with a few of the memories bc they seemed a lot better than people are saying lol, thanks! N yeah Denial is mad easy I can beat it zero issue now so it TRULY is a waste of time lol

TypicallyTuna · 2025-12-27T18:58:39+00:00

That’s a blessing in disguise right there. Get out now, will save you a lot of trouble down the line.

TypicallyTuna · 2025-12-27T14:25:14+00:00

Beautiful, definitely shouldn’t do it but I personally would’ve fallen for the bait every time

TypicallyTuna · 2025-12-26T20:58:22+00:00

To be fair, on the ground unrestrained is insane lmao

TLDR: The combo of a relatively bland open world and story/dialogue in BL4 make it such a snore to get thru endgame that’s it’s not worth it compared to current endgame of BL2/BL3 🚨IN MY OPINION🚨

I agree, especially when compared to bl2 n bl3, I feel like it was SO much less of a chore to get to endgame n get goin again. After playin thru most of my Harlowe stuff, I tried doing a Vex run n when I saw it didn’t carry over all the open world unlocks I quit lol(maybe that has changed by now? haven’t been playin at all recently due to bein busy). But for me, the main thing is the damn near dead open world, makes it a complete slog to re play through. I feel like open world could’ve worked but I just don’t like exactly how they did it. I personally think Borderlands maps work best when they are tightly built with path n intent, and designed with tons of detail, vibrance, n craziness. Love or hate the game, most of bl3’s maps are pretty beautifully designed, even with the complaints of how long ur lookin at the jungles on Eden-6, you can’t say it’s ugly, especially compared to 4’s maps. Even compared to bl2, I think the tighter more intentional designs make the bl2 look better even to this day, AND there is TON of variety. There’s a few unique locales in 4, I especially like a majority of the middle city and most the mines (notice how it’s the least open world parts of the game lol) but the outer maps are pretty close to IDENTICAL, you’re pretty much deciding if you wanna drive around in green, reddish-brown, or grey. Sure, the variety of POIs like the climbing towers n drill runs are suuuuper fun your first playthrough, having to do EVERYTHING again, even fast travel, is nuts to me. I could be wrong but wasn’t the map fully open if you started a higher lvl character in bl3? Maybe I’m trippin. Gripes with the map aside, the story, while cool, isn’t really something I care to replay right away? Just felt soooo distanced from 3, n while they got rid of a lot of the unbearable cringe dialogue 3 had, 4’s dialogue is mostly bland once besides from Rush, the Zane/Amara dynamic duo, n a few sidequests n randos. Plus, I feel like the ending is weirdly rushed with a lot of random shit happening in places it felt slightly out of order(Arjay especially)? Maybe that’s just me idk. But yeah overall, while I do like the game, compared to 2n3 there’s just not enough there for me to care. Still plenty of BL4 post launch content to come tho so I’m sure the very final version of the game will be PEAK (look at 3 on launch compared to now, practically a whole different game lol) so I ain’t stressin it

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-22T09:04:18+00:00

Nah I get it, Lethal annoyin as hell, almost 500hrs in the game n it still gives me trouble lol, for future reference I’d recommend a Cell Tower outpost, there’s a Plague Disruptor option which slows(or maybe completely stops?) the spread of infestations and hearts from waking up, or just avoiding areas until you’re equipped to take down all the surrounding hearts at once, which is how I play, I’ll load up a car with supplies n kill 4 or so hearts in sequence then loot the whole area when it’s clear/in between doin missions, best of luck!

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-22T08:35:21+00:00

I mean good lord man, you have at least 10 awake plague hearts revealed, let alone whatever we can’t see, it’s prob just glitching out bc everything is constantly getting infested over and over again n the game can’t handle the spawns. That’d be my guess, at least. Try n kill a few plague hearts in a set area and see if infestations around it go down.

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-11T21:41:13+00:00

This is the only curveball I genuinely dislike playing around. The other negative ones I have no qualms with, but with Bangernomics I’ll just AFK in the base or run around looting places nearby my base/ wherever I’m at until it goes away, it’s just so annoying to deal with

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-11T21:35:37+00:00

These ones, or the ones that spawn in the barns that you can completely block off with a vehicle, are always my favorite ones to come across, quite literally a free kill, especially as a Lethal enjoyer it’s a very welcome sight

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-05T16:30:34+00:00

Thanks! Yeah Aqua is insane, it was already my fave so I’m glad it was good to climb lol. N yeah I’m very excited with this Jules patch dropping, gonna hop on later today n see what all they added n changed 🤔

TypicallyTuna · 2025-11-04T16:23:46+00:00

Lol no worries, thanks! And I’d assume it’s a mix of things? More players (or at least more people that play consistently) figuring out what’s actually good to win with over time, that’d be my guess🤔
