By many problems, the design of this sequel really sticks to the details loved by previous releases, and delivers a burst of wild weapons, but at times extremely funny and accompanied by extremely bloody battles. The format is a bit outdated, but with some UI and Gameplay updates, and a huge adventure through many different locations, you will easily be immersed in the madness that the game will bring. come, even if - in your head - you are already familiar with this.

Players once again take the role of one of four unique treasure hunters, each with their own compelling gimmicks that differentiate each of their playstyles. From the Siren's melee attacks to the continuous attacks backed by Mech - Gunner, each character offers a different set of 'Build options' and a host of crafting theories. You become a powerful killing machine, and that becomes especially attractive after several dozen hours of gameplay and skill points earned. Most of that playstyle is borrowed entirely from previous installments or other 'franchises entirely', so most of the power-ups here will make you feel like you're walking in a pair of shoes. old - easy to use but less surprising.

Throughout a particularly lengthy campaign, 'Borderlands 3' satirizes the narcissism and selfishness inherent in the internet and corporate culture with its trademark wit. Humor is certainly hit and miss, but the developers seem to have adopted the philosophy that even if you miss 100% of the moments you don't catch, the conversation is pretty much the same. This time around, the game's narrative feels more epic as the heroes fly between planets. Previous games in the franchise have at times felt too tied to a particular environment, and this new installment combines old-school feel with some recognizable locale, from a convent. idyllic to a certain corporate megacity.Diversity is a welcome diversion and offers a colorful vision.

Review : Borderland 3 - Sticking To Its Guns Picture 2

Guns have once again become the real star of this game with a multitude of fictional guns that feature a variety of gameplay features as well as unique visuals. I'm really absorbed enjoying the variety of options at my fingertips and the gunfights that are sure to keep the table in the chair for hours. From radiation assault rifles to rocket-fired pistols, there's no stopping this experience. If anything else, it's the plethora of choices that can overwhelm you and slow you down because you need to try to figure out what's worth keeping or selling - a problem that gets worse. more important because the warehouse management store is quite cumbersome and has too few points of sale. Besides, some weapons will not be as expected when weapons can only meet expectations with their prototypes.When a pistol is sometimes a better long-range option than a sniper rifle, how best to judge an item's use at a glance?

Putting aside those unnecessary holes and overcoming obstacles that contribute to the exploration of the expedition, I appreciate the sense of speed and fluidity of the game. Combat is frenetic but simple, especially in the early hours, when waves of enemies pop up in quick succession to be taken down. The following hours offered many interesting combinations of enemies, but encountered another problem; many of the bad guys are extremists, and dragging out the wars feels unnecessary in a rich campaign. Some of the special 'Boss' on them carry crimes that can make you beat them up in misery, especially when playing solo, where this endless vicious circle will cause them to quickly lose their original appeal .

Like its predecessors, 'Borderlands 3' works best when played cooperatively with up to four players online. When multiple hunters join the fray, the visuals in color explosions can be amusing and strangely amusing. The game makes it easier to play with options to expand the level of independence or difficulty, solving obstacles that players face in different places in the game.

If you want to jump up and down with 'Bang. bang' (fire explosion) instead of simply rich content and many things to do, Gearbox will help you. In addition to the potential to try out different characters and builds through the lengthening of the story, the post-game experience opens up a host of challenge options, levels of random encounters, and more. pass and rise in rank enough for you to dive back into the action. And when playing this game, with a variety of play styles that I can freely create. I promise that when you join the game you will play until this game is over.

'Borderlands 3' is like a love letter to fans and a celebration of the style of play in which it was first popularized. Filled with characters from previous installments and with no qualms about goofy humor and melodramatic action, it's a very enjoyable ride and it would be a shame if you missed it.

Borderlands 3 is also available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Those versions feature 2-Player local split-screen cooperative play.
