@@ConstantCanadianFor 3 in particular all I hear is well it's about the villains not being handsome jack and too many legendaries like bro I could care less about the twins and as for the legendaries I love it man cuz it was fun checking out what I got
Me too, though from what I've read, it didn't get that support because gearbox was pre-occupied with Borderlands 4, so that's a good sign for the future at least
I’ve been on a Borderlands binge recently, playing through 1 and 2 to max level and then some to revisit some of my favourite games, and it made me bite the bullet and buy Borderlands 3. I had it on launch on Playstation, but I’ve since made the change to PC so I just got it on a deep sale. It’s so much better than I remember it being (though I still cant say the same about the story…) I’ve just hit 72 on Zane and been messing around in Mayhem modes. Super fun.
Borderlands is one of those series that I come back to over and over again Like, even some of my absolute favorites, the Metro series, Nier Automata, Witcher 3 (was finally able to get into that again recently tho) and BioShock, I have a lotta trouble replaying, but I think I've played the Borderlands games maybe 10 times each Only game I've played as much as I have the Borderlands games is Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen. Truly a cycle of eternal return 😔
I remember playing through it blind and having the pipe-bomb carry me through everything past the Agonizer as I hadn't yet figured out how to make gun damage go boom.
What I absolutely love about the borderlands 3 hater community is they love to call this game “too woke” but are perfectly fine with a genderless assassin, black crimson raider leader, Mexican bird dad sniper, all powerful females, an op Mexican, and a gay black explorer in bl2. Proving that being woke is only bad if borderlands 3 and later does it.
Still crashes on both Series S and X. If they're not willing to fix that, I don't care what other updates they ever make. Make the game playable before you keep doing other updates that can't even be enjoyed because of all the crashing.
i feel like i don’t care that much for the antagonists in this game BUT the gameplay and weapons are so awesome it really enjoy the game! BL1 will always be my favorite but BL3 is an awesome game! honestly i haven’t been disappointed once by a BL game
Bl3 was the first game i ever pre-ordered. I got the super deluxe for 100 bucks back when it was first announced. The day it dropped i was more excited than any other game ive ever played, and... almost immediately disappointed. At release the game was an amazing shooter, but it didn't live up to my hype. What got me more than anything tho was the fact they went with the story progress from the tale tell game. I was lost throughout the whole story because the game never did a recap. For people new to the series that probably wouldn't matter, but as someone who was invested in bl2 and bl1 it somewhat ruined the experience. I could have played the tale tell, sure, but i think if an amazing movie came out, made a book to continue the story, then made the second movie a continuation of the book, some fans would be a little upset because not everyone wants to read a book to enjoy a movie.
Well most of them were new content and balancing patches. It also shows the amount of work and effort they put into making sure the game was the best it could possibly be.
There are a few creators still praising BL3 and producing new content even though the game has been out 5 years. I watch this channel and Spartan game zone because the videos include a lot of info you don't find on other channels. I don't want to watch some bloke doing 193 runs for a god roll Harold, that's so boring, I want to know which gun is gonna kill everything. I also want to know the science behind the game like damage rates, best artifacts, how damage is calculated, how a sheild can affect your build and all the other stuff like that. Don't get me started on modifiers, I stopped playing until mayhem 11 came in, the modifiers were so annoying as to make the game borderline unplayable.
@ConstantCanadian oh okay that's where I got confused thanks love the video btw it's great seeing how much this game has grown and changed since release
I deeply enjoy this games GAMEPLAY but not the story. That's something they can't just fix. Unfortunately the story is what makes up the initial experience of borderlands before you get to the fun end game. I am a simple mfker to please, and even wonderlands end game was fun for me, so I am happy to see 3 get the praise it deserves for the 2nd half of the experience. Pre should also get this same praise, but it doesn't unfortunately. Similar issues and even more so, was abandoned just like wonderlands. Happy that 3 never was abandoned.
As a bl2 veteran I played bl3 at launch and it was okay but I really didn’t enjoy it as much as I ever enjoyed bl2. However coming back in late 2023-2024 I can appreciate this game a lot more and I think gearbox got really close to a perfect formula. Really hope they finally nail it with bl4
Loved BL1 Obsessed with BL2 Played BL3 on launch for a few months but then lost interest anyway fast forward to like 2 months ago 😂 Picked it up again cause it was on special with all the dlc and man I’m having a blast and I can’t stop playing P.S no comment on pre sequel
I came back to the game a couple of weeks ago. I originally played on Xbox One, but a Steam sale for the game made it $5 for the ultimate edition so why not. Love the game again so far. I get the fact that not everyone likes the Diablo 3 style of legendary items everywhere which I don't really mind much because of all the different combinations of them you can get now. HOWEVER, fuck you arms race, I just want my eternal flame class mod for moze lol
Fl4k's Purple never got fixed. Promised P2P Networker return didn't happen and some items that went from hotfix to patch lost their hotfix. That was during DLC6. Also no source for DLC quest rewards for Crazy Earl Machine. They did a great job, but there are still few things that wouldn't hurt for final update
Great video, but 90% of borderlands user don’t care about most of the things here. They don’t create a billion weapons so you chase done 1 with the perfect roll. That’s why issues about farming, rerolling, dedicated drops. I think that’s what many morphed it into. It became to different games to two groups. One open world, side quests story driving group, that takes the Randomness of weapon finding and the other is the more hardcore, specific builds player that spends hours finding a weapon. Both are great but too often the hardcore tries to define borderlands as something it’s only half as. If I took the time to make 1 million guns shields coms. Etc…. I wouldn’t want you all using the same 5 or 10…
I highly disagree, people that don't care about those things are casual gamers that will put 30 to 40 hours into the game to finish the story in normal mode (which is basically the tutorial of the game) and then never touch the game again. But those who stick with the game, chase achievements, and want to tackle the endgame content, they have to care about those things, and they're the ones putting hundreds of hours into the game. So the kind of players that define the player base are the ones who actually play the game.
i picked up the game 2 months ago, now im grinding endgame content. its very very fun. My only problem with it (im a gearbox newb, so im allowed to say this) are the droprates. Ik that bl3 has been one of the more generous games in the series but HOLY SHIT some of the dropchances, if u want something specific, are actually disheartening, being the perfectionist i am. :) Anyways thx for the Video, was a good watch. As constructive criticism id like to add that it would feel better if the screen in between the talking sections are be shorter, or left out entirely, it kinda disrupted the flow for me. Cheers
@@ConstantCanadian that. my stochastics skills are shit, so i asked GPT yeserday for the odds to farm a godroll IB victory rush. Dunno if it was correct since GPT tends do be equally shit in maths, BUT it was well over a lifetime xDD
I use a shlooter and the science machine upgrade for increasing drop rates and I find it becomes slightly easier to get that god roll weapon. I used this method farming for a re-volter with 3 x absorb and ass and got after 5 or 6 runs. I used the shlooter farming the twins, for a monarch I believe, farming for a ghast call and a Harold, it makes life a lot easier but still took over 30 runs to get a decent Harold.
Yup! I quit BL3 in 2019 after beating the game but came back in 2024 (after buying the ultimate edition) and have been unbelievably addicted to it for months. I wish the content creators that still shit on it would go back and try the game again, they talk about BL3 as if it was the same game. I still have some gripes with the game but it’s in a much better place. My biggest issues are bugs / crashes and the sheer amount of trash legendaries. That’s about it.
A lot of creators just love to crap all over Borderlands 3 for not being Borderlands 2 with better graphics. Like you said, the game's still got issues, but it is simply not the same as it was 5 years ago
![[SFM] Risky Recital](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/RzNkY1_Nk3o/mqdefault.jpg)
Honestly I'm happy to hear some praise for this game especially when every content creator just simply wants to shit on this game
@@douglaspope-gz1eq every borderlands game has its ups and downs, I don't understand why people have such a hard time seeing that

*cough* Hellfire *cough*
@@smoke3dR 🤣😂🤣 yeah that's true but I know hellfire means well though
Believe me I do love the game but not the story or randy "bobandy"...
Wish wonderlands got more post lunch support like bl3 did
Me too, though from what I've read, it didn't get that support because gearbox was pre-occupied with Borderlands 4, so that's a good sign for the future at least
Wish wonderlands had a real dlc....

Yea, the first 6 months or so after launch were rough. Couldn't fix that story though
Also, really cool to see an entire history of this game’s updates. Thanks for making it.
It was a blast making it, and remembering some of the HUGE changes that we've come to expect and take for granted these days
Borderlands is one of those series that I come back to over and over again
Like, even some of my absolute favorites, the Metro series, Nier Automata, Witcher 3 (was finally able to get into that again recently tho) and BioShock, I have a lotta trouble replaying, but I think I've played the Borderlands games maybe 10 times each

I came back after 2 years of not playing and started new Fl4k on console. Its great after a break
19:29 I know it can activate certain shield effects like nova berner twice since it does novas on break AND fill.
I see. Thanks for letting me know!
I remember playing through it blind and having the pipe-bomb carry me through everything past the Agonizer as I hadn't yet figured out how to make gun damage go boom.
Set the Audio from Small Speakers to Mono to reduce processing on the game on switch

TPS and BL1 crash more often for me than bl3. What are you talking about?
*cough* borderlands 2 memory leaks *cough*
I just started playing this game again so this is pretty cool to watch 👌🏻
I just started playing 3 over the summer and i love it. Some of the characters are annoying but the gameplay is so good
i feel like i don’t care that much for the antagonists in this game BUT the gameplay and weapons are so awesome it really enjoy the game! BL1 will always be my favorite but BL3 is an awesome game! honestly i haven’t been disappointed once by a BL game
I didnt even know boosting to 72 was a thing lmao
@@Croatilillious not surprising coming from a tediore shill
It still constantly crashes for me on PC. hopefully my GPU upgrade that comes tomorrow will help.
Cartel events maybe my favorite change
Still some of the best Borderlands content, to this day

Not sure if 100 patches makes the game good. If anything, It shows this game had no business being sold to us when it did.
Well most of them were new content and balancing patches. It also shows the amount of work and effort they put into making sure the game was the best it could possibly be.
do you have a lootlemon link for the amara build you used in the video
