I’ve watched multiple videos on the storyline of this game, not a single one comes close to the production value of this one!!! Can’t wait to see what you do next!
@2:41:26 on launch this cutscene bugged during my first playthrough and showed Lillith t pose into the moon it was the greatest moment in borderlands history if you ask me just a masterpiece of cinema. all bl3 memes aside you made my stone heart show some cracks with this video. maybe even for fans like me who don't enjoy the story these days there's still hope. great video brother.
I really want to know why nobody in the writing room stopped and ask why the heroes don't use the pseudo philosopher stone capable of resurrecting people to heal their friend struck in a wheel chair
I've gotta say i've played every game and every DLC that's with in the borderlands franchise over 10+ times(i fucking love this franchise). So far never fully understood the story line, this is by far the most in-depth video I've seen on a franchise ever. Hearing that you never played a borderlands game, went from 0 knowledge to explaining the story so well that I learned a few things I didn't know, even after playing through the games and DLC's multiple times. This is a masterpiece of a video, the hard work and effort you put in this video just a chefs kiss to you my good friend, keep up the great work.
@@lightningmonky7674 bl2 had some dumb but funny humor, and after that they dumbed down the jokes too much and made all the characters retards. How tf can anyone stand ava when she's breaking open the crypts? Why does lilith lose an argument with a 13 year old? Why does every game nowadays go from good writing to bad within years of game releases?
Imo we didn't get to see what Typhon's special ability would be in BL3. I think it would make sense to say it was some piece of tech that broke or got lost or given away after he stopped hunting vaults. That or they could give the eridian fabricator an attack feature the BL3 vault hunters never figured out how to use. Typhon was shown to have a very deep understanding of the eridian artifacts so his special could just be a random artifact pulled outta his bag.
I mean hey, getting to play as typhon, his wife (potentially already a siren), and two other characters from early borderlands? Now thatd be *sweet*. Maybe a younger, still programmer jack with angels help and a jackobs maybe? Tryna think of ppl old enough...
@@amidalaprin4846 I don't know about Jack cuz we already got to play as him in bl:tps so maybe two new characters created maybe a new siren who is related to Lilith maybe like a grandmother!
I can’t BELIEVE I forgot to leave a comment giving my deepest thanks for that shout out at the end, I know you already know how much it means to me to be acknowledged in this way by a person that I look up to as much as you but I’m saying it here anyway. Thank you SO MUCH y’all are too kind!
I'm a casual fan of Borderlands. I played a lot of the first two games when I was still in school. I haven't kept up with all the games and DLC, so I appreciate something like this video that strings the whole story together for me. I like that this video uses some actual musical scoring instead of just using those same Kevin McCleod royalty free pieces, which were already incredibly tired a decade ago.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this video at first, but now that I'm watching it, I'm amazed by how well and clean you are telling the story. Can't stop watching and listening. Great job
I’m listening to this as a podcast at work today, I love the borderlands games and thought this would be an alright refresher. Im learning a whole lot of stuff I didn’t know about the games before and this is awesome!
Dude that intro song goes way too fucking hard and it matches WAY TOO PERFECTLY for this game franchise. It's amazingly hilarious and I love it! The video was also an amazing timeline vid.
Your summary of all the games stories is super insightful. It was hard to keep track of the story playing the games so far apart. Many thanks for your work.
Straight up, had never heard of your channel before now. But you earned a fan and a subscriber with that one. Hooo boy was that comprehensive. Well done sir.
Man why don’t you have millions of subscribers you deserve it god this video is like a movie 🍿 it’s sooo good right now I’m playing the pre sequel on the switch wish me luck lol
You are an absolute legend for recounting and compiling this. Well done. It always surprises me to hear people say "Borderlands doesn't have a story" - it's quite possibly one of the most interesting, engaging and creative universes in media. (At least when characters aren't making fart jokes or drawing butts on walls.)
Also, wow. For someone who hasn't played the games before, this is a very concise and well-researched video. I've followed the franchise for a decade and it's incredible to see you become this knowledgeable in six months. Great job again.
Genuinely the best video about Borderlands on RUclips, managed to teach me a shitton I didn't even know, even after having played it for far longer than I really should've. S-Tier.
Borderlands series has so much interesting lore to explore. They're are so many ways the writer can go off of for one have more lore base on the other ancient civilizations. Or the Vault hunters go to different galaxies to look for other Vaults out there.
I love how you edited and made this video of the complete history of Borderlands. The only other BL RUclipsr i know that can match this is EruptionFang and his Borderlands history video, even though it was made pre Borderlands 3 and New Tales. Imma be doing a new character playthrough on BL2 so thisll be good background auido, good job man keep it up
I remember watching EruptionFang back when he was focused on Rooster Teeth and while I didn’t get into Borderlands until after he had established it as his focus post Rooster Teeth’s collapse to the point of being gone now, it was when he did a timeline video on Call of Duty Zombies’ Aether saga where I got the confidence to say he was making stuff I’d want to watch since.
Well.. wow! Your video randomly pops up on my recommended, I got curious and are met by this masterpiece! You're awesome! Super good editing and well presented!
Finally a good and up to date timeline video! As a fellow lore enthusiast I salute you - this video doesn't seem to have anything I didn't already know, but the sheer storytelling and production value makes it a worthwhile watch regardless ;) EDIT: One minor mistake, I'm fairly certain the entire Jakobs lineage knew of the vault, it's a "family secret" for a reason, and y'know how else they could have INTEGRATED IT INTO THE MANOR'S GODDAMN SYSTEMS???? EDIT 2: Also, Eleanor and Vincent's wording in GL&T seems to imply the two discovered the ruins before Eridians were even named as Eridians.
A 3 hour lore video on the Borderlands series in 2024? Damn! I'm going to have to come back to it though because it's talking about BL1, as you'd expect, and I haven't played much of BL1. Once I beat it I'll be coming back to this video to watch it! I got 40min into the video before stopping though, and so far this is a really good video, well done! Already learned things that I didn't know and I'm not even half way through.
This video is absolutely amazing! I hope you continue to make awesome videos on all kinds of games! (Although I'm pretty biased for Borderlands and Infamous)
I know youve heard this alot but thanks borderlands was a fun series and i never understood much of the whole kas of audio crossover or hidden taps not found so thank you for putting this together
Great vid I hope that we get the watcher’s warning and a big war is coming and it might tie in with the shard and we could start off in the new nebula and Timmy could be a new robotic vault hunter. I hope that once new years is over we get trailers maybe every 2-4 months about BL4 that go in depth about the plot, the guns, how many hunters we start with and who they are, and lastly a lot of DLC with stages and of course more hunters can’t wait.
Subbed, at 17:17, but, since I've not finished BL3 fully and am currently preparing for a new BL2 run, to get ready for 3, I can't keep watching rn, as I'm seeing way to much from that game rn, I'll save this video for after K finish the 3rd game at least once, u sir, make fantastic content! I love the Borderlands series, BL2 is amazing, the movement, combat, and gameplay of 3 is far superior, give me that, with a great acted villain like Handsome Jack in the 4th game, and it'll be the best out of the 4.💯🙏🏾😃
I know a lot of people were upset with Maya's death in bl3, myself included, but i got what they were going for, to show the threat that the twins really were, they just.. Rushed it so bad
I actually loved Ava in BL3, the murder mystery side quest was fun, and her and Maya’s relationship was cute. I was a little confused as why Lilith left her in charge as a child (why not leave rabbis in charge until Maya is ready).
@@bunnarchist8965 eh the irrationality is fine-ish. It was afterwards blaming it on Lilith, then never growing/apologizing for it. She snaps on Lilith. Keeps being annoying. Keeps being annoying. Gets mayas powers. Now leader of Sanctuary.
you know, there's like, one unexplored thing about Pandora, the giant skeletal creatures, they appear in various locations throughout the planet, I can tell that they were giant massive lizards that once roamed Pandora, but are now dead, I'm curious if there's one living giant lizard creature still remaining somewhere on that planet.
Am glad u started with “You want to hear a story, eh?” It was the only right way to start a borderlands timeline video.
Yep is a 100% a must add
D
Should’ve been how the movie trailer started 😭
@@BeefcreamAlas, did not! The movie BORDERLANDS was fun seeing, however. Grab some friends and go!
"So you want to hear another story eh..... well too bad I'm telling you anyway" *begins borderlands 2 intro*
Cant wait see this blow up since BL4 got announced.
Yea a good definitive recap till 4 releases :p
I’ve watched multiple videos on the storyline of this game, not a single one comes close to the production value of this one!!! Can’t wait to see what you do next!

great video brother.
I want to see that lol
If there's one thing I learned from this video, it's that new tales from the borderlands was even worse than I remembered.
I really want to know why nobody in the writing room stopped and ask why the heroes don't use the pseudo philosopher stone capable of resurrecting people to heal their friend struck in a wheel chair
This is easily the most in-depth video on the Story of Borderlands. Amazing video!

Better borderlands movie then the one that just came out 😂
We dont talk about tales 2

You have no idea how big of a compliment that is to me. Byf is one of my biggest inspirations.
@@overusedbruh you seriously did a great job with this one keep it up bro i always come back for more
Love this! You're channels content is only getting better and better and I can't wait to see what comes next!
I would love to see a true borderlands prequel where you get to play as Typhon Deleon
What would his ability be? I mean ya he has the whip BUT you can argue they may make it his melee
Imo we didn't get to see what Typhon's special ability would be in BL3.
I think it would make sense to say it was some piece of tech that broke or got lost or given away after he stopped hunting vaults.

Just got done watching the borderlands movie, 1/10. Came here to watch a real movie!
you can tell this guys a real one with how he started the video
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this video at first, but now that I'm watching it, I'm amazed by how well and clean you are telling the story. Can't stop watching and listening. Great job
Thanks so much been looking for a full timeline forever
So, a 3 hour long Borderlands video on the timeline, and infamous vids in the back to watch too?
This man is right up my alley
I'm loving the hidden commentary in the subtitles, especially the one referring to Roland's call in Sanctuary
I’m listening to this as a podcast at work today, I love the borderlands games and thought this would be an alright refresher. Im learning a whole lot of stuff I didn’t know about the games before and this is awesome!
Dude that intro song goes way too fucking hard and it matches WAY TOO PERFECTLY for this game franchise. It's amazingly hilarious and I love it! The video was also an amazing timeline vid.
Shame the lore ends with the brain rot of the 2nd tales
Trust me I was in denial that it was canon for a long time because I didn’t want to include it either
@@overusedbruhgiven the reception I bet they'll retcon it and make it into an in universe movie lmao
I highly doubt it. Its inclusion in the Pandora’s Box collection practically confirms that it is canon.
@@bunnarchist8965Apparently the movie is going to be trash with alot of "modern" changes
Bruh, I got the pandora collection and didn’t even know Tales 2 was a game 😭 I was like the fuck and was sooooo disappointed
Thank you for showing love to the series !
Your summary of all the games stories is super insightful. It was hard to keep track of the story playing the games so far apart. Many thanks for your work.
Straight up, had never heard of your channel before now. But you earned a fan and a subscriber with that one. Hooo boy was that comprehensive. Well done sir.
markus is our seventh siren
look at his stories
hes connected deeper
Amazing video! I really hope the movie and bl4 lives up to the rest of the fanchise
lol not even a week later and this comment aged like milk
Man why don’t you have millions of subscribers you deserve it god this video is like a movie 🍿 it’s sooo good right now I’m playing the pre sequel on the switch wish me luck lol
1:45:56 “after easily killing woundspike”
*FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE*
😂
As always my man fantastic job. By far the most detailed and best executed lore video for Borderlands.
No need to thank us for watching this amazing video, thank you, many times over for making it.

A nice short explanation! Thanks so much!
what a wonderful timeline right before the movie 👍🙏
not that it matters much because of the mesh-canon bs the movie's doing
I’ve rewatched this like 3 times now at work, it’s fantastic
Thanks for this Great Video on one of my favorite game franchises
This was impressive. You managed to keep me occupied watching the entire episode while slacking off work.
Man, that was such good timing for this video since bl4 was announced.
That was a great summation
So much respect for using Marcus to introduce the video before I clicked the video I said to myself he needs to use Marcus intro

I have thousands upon thousands of hours in every Borderlands game but to hear the story in a linear fashion is amazing
This video is absolutely amazing! I hope you continue to make awesome videos on all kinds of games! (Although I'm pretty biased for Borderlands and Infamous)
Dude, this is easily the best Borderlands lore video available
handsome jack
I agree
I just started borderlands three, to play with my friends. Thank you so much for this video, I was very confused with some of the lore.
Such a well made video, you described the timeline so well it honestly made me sad that BL3 and Tales 3 are canon 😭
I know youve heard this alot but thanks borderlands was a fun series and i never understood much of the whole kas of audio crossover or hidden taps not found so thank you for putting this together
Glad mcshooty got mentioned, really the best part of the 3 hour video
Borderlands started as science fiction, at the end was magic shit.
Nice video man!
Very nice! 👍
Yay bl3 timeline included!!!! love BL!!!! Nice vid!!!

This is a better watch than the Borderlands movie.
i could never get into the games they were always not that fun to me but i always thought the lore was pretty awesome so thanks for making this
Idk where this came from but after3 1/2 hrs you’ve earned my subscription not that it means anything but good job man
Even though I consider New Tales non-canon, that's still a great video and a great explanation of the lore!
The captions during tales 2 were killing me 😭
After watching the Borderlands 4 Teaser and hearing a war is comming has me excited
This is infinitely better content than the Borderlands movie.
I was surprised to hear sin shake sin at the beginning
I know a lot of people were upset with Maya's death in bl3, myself included, but i got what they were going for, to show the threat that the twins really were, they just.. Rushed it so bad

Cant wait for 4 to be added. Rumor was Tiny Tina is playable
This is awesome thank you!!!
The fact I used to play borderlands 2 with cant go to hell on repeat
Great work!
Keep up the good work boss
I'm surprised you didn't mention Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep for the timeline.
The only thing I feel you missed is troy was tricked into repairing the ship and forced to leave according to the audio logs on necrodefaio
Better than watching borderlands movie!!
Im playing as krieg and I have no idea how he managed to say "I love you" to angels door in order to open it lmfao
