    Randy Pitchford really is his own worst enemy. Borderlands was a very popular franchise throughout the early-mid 2010's and I think it still would be if he'd kept his mouth shut and let the game's success speak for itself instead of jerking himself off over it while putting a sour taste in fans' mouths with questionable-at-best business choices.

    The worst thing is, "Mad Max meets Guardians of the Galaxy" COULD have worked as a general marker for the movie plot, as it is sort of the tone that the series uses, with every group of protagonists being outcasts or or otherwise wayward people finding their way to Pandora to either escape their old life, discover more about themselves or drawn in by the Eridian crypts.

    Why would you do a silhouette shot of the cast if you're just going to pull back so far that we can see the backlight screen?! Why would you make that the ONLY image you'd release?!

    They really should have just gone with trying to make a movie using twos main storyline as a base rather than the mish mash we got here.
    By all accounts any parts taken from the games were incredibly obvious to anyone who’s played them, so it’s not as if following one of the games more directly would have resulted in less surprises for the audience.

    problem for Pre-Sequel if you ask me: It feels short, the difficulty scaling is not good, the difficulty BALANCE is not good, laser weapons sucks, and has severe lack of DLCs compared to its predecessors.
    Good points? Sure: Playable Claptrap, Playable Athena, Playable Willhelm, Playable Nisha, Playable Jack (Double), and its singular expansion is a VERY fun one (not as fun as something like Assault on Dragon Keep, but that is a very high bar!)

      The difficulty, especially at endgame is perfectly fine, probably the best in the franchise. It's just getting there that sucks and there isn't much payoff to getting to 70. It takes forever because there isn't very good xp farms and those that do exist still take longer than getting to 72/80 in 2. Getting to uvhm in the first place is a slog because you can very quickly become under leveled

    I fired up Borderlands 2 for the first time in ages when the movie came out, and the first screen before the main menu was an ad for this movie. But, like... not an informative one? Like, it was basically just a poster of the main characters, and all it said was "Borderlands", the title. No "In theaters now!" Or anything. If I didn't know about the film, I'd have thought it was some group that won a cosplay contest or something.
