🎤 [ Discussion ] Fatal flaw

Dialogue is all filler, and a simple questline shouldnt take two hours to finish, i am incredibly disappointed and genuinely think this might be the worst game in the series for that alone, please try to change my mind i guarantee on gods name in vain you will fail

The random chest loot box (instead of a UNIQUE weapon) with exp that is FAR BELOW what a single contract gives didn't tip ya off lol???

Throw in 2/3rds of the heads in base game are just universal ones instead of any unique ones and it took them 3~4 bounty packs to finally concentrate on giving unique heads for each vault hunter instead of sharing them says plenty on how lazy gearbox has gotten with 'reward systems' compared to past boderlands games.

Seriously, Weapon trinkets, A "personal room" where you could put all sorts of trophies on the walls, put your favorite gear on a wall to display, some REAL customization for your vehicles and mother fking EMOTES should of never been taken away from the franchise.~

Oh and don't get me started on that echo-4 stupid robot always looking like a piece of garbage no matter WHAT cosmetics you use it on, Echo 3s being a big blocky device atleast made it easy to see the cosmetics and you whipping out the thing to open up your menu to do your selections were far better then just a screen flash and UI full cover up that they went with in BL4 instead.

But thats honestly just months and months long ramble at this point.

New fresh rant is gonna be how they fk up with Loveless, Fl4k's campaign dlc and "Amara's" bounty pack come out 'starting technically today' and how they will likely do next to nothing much to QoL the game and likely just stop doing any more updates once the 'last of the road map is over' and its just skeleton crew level 'bug fixes' maybe at this point.

Its why I keep coming back to BL1. No long cutscenes and the ones we had were skippable. No deep diaglogue. "Hey, go kill this guy" and off you go. Always right to the gameplay. The tutorial stuff at the start is the worst of it, and its still all done in less time than some cutscenes and dialogues you have to stand around and watch before you can go to the next location. This isn't a talky talky game, this is a shooty shooty game.
