    Bitiremedim. Zira çok sıkıcı. Hikayesi vasat, oynanış fena değil gibi ama buglar yok değil. Sürekli sinematik izliyorsun ve geçme yok, oysa böyle akıcı bir oyunda sinematiklere takılmak istemezsin. Grafikler benlik değil.
    Silah çeşitliliği güzel, mermi sık sık bitse de loot tatmin edici, silahlar arası geçiş yapmak gerek. Araba sürmesi zevkli. Dünya içine çekmiyor. Animasyonlar da vasat    Bitiremedim.

    I enjoy the unique atmosphere of this game: unique art style, irreverent tone. I like that it's not a constant-shooting, run and gun game. I'm interested enough to carefully watch my inventory of new items, always looking to update and improve guns and shields as soon as possible. So far the difficulty level at normal (intermediate) is about right for me, not too hard, not too easy.I enjoy the unique atmosphere of this game: unique art style, irreverent tone.

    It's not a complex game, so when you just want to divert yourself with a fun atmosphere and some gunplay, without having to think too much, this game is good for that. (If you're in a mood to think more about your game, then try something else like RDR2 or Cyberpunk 2077).    … Expand

    One of the worst games ive played this year and ive played ac odyssey/ shadow of tomb raider this year. Characters and writing is feminist and boring as hell. Devs force you to do boring side quests by level gating the (boring) main quests. Just avoid this.

    3 years after release, and many minor bugs still on. This game is totally on line add DLC, never repair errors, bugs, crashes, some bad game designs. Loved B1 and B2, at least story, voice acting and characters are good, but not enough for good score.

    + It's the best one since Borderlands 2.
    + There were some pretty girls in the game. In cut scenes, I had a fun time finding the best camera angles to ogle the boobs and butts. To be 13 again...

    Cons:
    - The main villains are weak and uninteresting characters with a boring story line and motivations. Granted, this is not a game about the story, but Borderlands 2 showed you could have a much more interesting villain than this. These are just comically evil characters that do bad things because they need one-dimensional villains to move the plot forward. I could not skip through the CoV cut scenes fast enough.
    - I feel like I've grown out of the edgy humor and teenage angst portrayed in the narrative. It's more a con of me getting older.
    - I found the game very easy. I rarely died, and didn't feel like there was much skill or challenge in the fights. Point at the thing you want to die and hold the trigger; move forward and repeat. I barely used special powers or grenades because there wasn't much point.
    - Obnoxious DLC sales push. OMG, they are trying way to hard to sell you DLC in game with constant in-your-face reminders.
    - On PC, I had a few crashes. At one point I had to google how to restore a corrupted save game after one of the crashes.

    Buying advice: If you're a fan looking for more Borderlands, this is fine. If you're new to the series, start with Borderlands 2, and come back to this if you want more. I'd pay $20 for the base game, but I'm not really interested in playing the DLC.    … Expand

Okay, sorry borderlands 3, I was wrong about you, after writing previous feedback (already deleted) I went through the game several times and I was very pleased, shooting is the best of the entire series, very comfortable to run and shoot, spend a few evenings going through this game very cool

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't know what's the fuss about, in terms of gameplay and graphics isn't that much different of previous games (except for TPS). I don't understand either how on Earth this game demands so many resources (>= GeForce 1660, 6 GB VRAM for a game that looks like BL 1 ???) it still has screen tearing IF VSync is not set On and stuttering and un-rebindable keys. You morons, not every player uses the outdated WASD, SOME of them use TFGH (by far, superior to WASD!) with Y instead of E. In your crappy console-port Y is bound to Team Chat and cannot be unbound (and other keys too). Your game menus reek of putrid antiquated pieces of trashware scent, prev/next menu Z/C, LALT/CTRL, etc. Guys, you use to be PC gamers, what the hell is wrong with you, design your game having the keyboard and mouse in your minds, not that despicable device ever invented by man, the putrid controller. The PC is the most fascinating, reliable and powerful device invented by man, the keyboard has TONS of buttons to play with (not like that putrid and despicable controllers!), the mouse has pinpoint accuracy (and if it's a gaming one, well, hooah soldier!), its parts can be changed, interchanged, upgraded (if you like hardware tinkering!), the PC is FREEDOM OF GAMING AND MIND. Yet, you cling to those antiquated pieces of trashware AND you have the nerve to ask afterwards *very* powerful resources/rigs for a game which looks like its 2010 version (with small differences in lighting, some textures here and there, some shadowing, etc. *barely* noticeable in a fast-paced shooting).
    The Season Passes
    The Season PassES, because yes, His Illustrious Grace Gearbox pulled this card on the table, with *multiple* ones.
    This is by far, one of the most despicable business practice very similar to that of pre-ordering games. It's like paying whores multiple times in the brothel *before* "engaging" their Blazkowicz services. This despicable practice needs to die in miserable pain along with all developers that implement it. Until now, only His Pandoran Excellency Gearbox pulled this card on the table, I *really* hope that other developers will not follow this putrid scent.
    Once upon a time on Earth, if a game had been successful, it would have been followed by an expansion; nowadays they have the guts to ask in advance for their **** and also to be paid in advance for their **** extra private dances, because, you know, if there is a game, it has to be a DLC too.
    Lets now take a look at their older DLCs successes through the eyes of a game considered successful by some *very* vocal players (on youtube, flexing and showing-off how cool they are in killing some bosses on overpowered levels +72 ->80).
    What statistics say for Borderlands 2:
    1. "Better Than You Were" Reach level 10. Only 67% of players achieved this. That means 1 in 3 players gave up quite early.
    2. "Always Improving" Reach level 25, 40% of the players. Which also means that 6 out of 10 did not bother.
    3. "Cool Story, Bro" 32% of players, that means only 1 in 3 players bothered to finish the main campaign only.
    4. "Capped Out... For Now" Reach level 50. Only 17.3% of players, that means only 3 out of 17. 14 of them went to greener pastures.
    5. "Thresher Thrashed" Terramorphous the Invincible killed, 11%, that means only 1 in 10 players bothered with it.
    6. Completionist Completed all Pirate's Booty DLC side missions. 2.4% of players.
    7. Done That Completed all Hammerlock's Hunt side missions. 1.9% of players, I wonder what other 98 out of 100 players did.
    8. Make it Raaaaaid Vanquished the Ancient Dragons of Destruction. 5.4% of players.
    9. Spicy Boy Defeat Haderax the Invincible. 1.8% of players (!)
    How many players bothered that much to reach "Overpowered level 8", if barely 3 in 17 reached only level 50?
    Were those DLCs *that* successful, if less than 5% of players bothered with?
    This despicable practice of asking in advance for money 1. for unfinished and surely full of bugs products and 2. because "you know, we will deliver in 6-8 months some extra-content (aka 1-2 hrs max **** DLCs, or worse, extra characters to be played with)" should, I repeat, die in miserable pain along with all developers which implement it.
    Does ANY game need Season Pass? No.
    Does ANY game need Season Pass 2? Definitely no.
    Does ANY game need Season Pass 3? Definitely, definitely no.
    Shove all your Season Passes in your throats, by the time you end up publishing your marvelous DLCs which no one cares about, your game will have collected a lot of dust on Steam servers.
    You can easily bundle all your **** DLCs along with the main game into some *unique* GOTY edition (as it was up to 2010, 2011!) without splitting and chopping the content into Deluxe, Gold, Ultimate, Spectacular, Whatever Edition and having the nerve afterwards to ask money for Season Pass 2, 3 and so forth.
    PS. Statistics pulled from Steam achievements. I'm pretty sure that Epic achievements will fall into the same ballpark.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Borderlands 3 overall is a solid game when it comes to gameplay but lacks the writing to make the game compelling. I was not expecting the game to be a Borderlands 2 by any means and was hoping for just a good looter shooter. Well it was good at looting and shooting but the rest of it did not hold up.

    Now this game was difficult to review as I feel the game is better than the original in terms of gameplay…. yet I was not happy or thrilled when I was playing it. The vault hunters you get to pick where mostly ok but honestly, I didn’t really feel they had character like the previous series. None of them where compelling and mostly just had generic dialogues. The game itself also felt a bit easy for me and I didn’t feel much of a challenge throughout the main story. I do like the gunplay and the extra variety of guns they introduce so that’s a plus. Skill tree is still cool but nothing new from previous titles. So overall my experience with just the game itself without adding into the story is roughly 6/10. Enjoyable enough but average.

    Now when you add in the story, things get a lot worse. I hated how the story progressed. One of the most annoying non compelling villains that I just hate. Borderlands 2 had a very good villain that you know is as villain, but you enjoy how great he is as a character. Borderlands 3 completely does not have that same magic at all for their villain. Making them this streamer attitude kids who doesn’t have the same charisma or depth. The game also added in a horrible character name AVA and I hated her. There is nothing else to say but after a certain turning point in a game where this kid is now part of the crew, I stopped playing the game from the original release date…. until a week ago. After finishing the game my view has not changed. Poorly written character growth, underserving character death and horrible villains. This game was a slog to get through because of the story. There are small aspect here and there that feels like they understood Borderlands universe and then the rest of it is just pulling random powers ups out of thin air and making one of the WORSE characters in the game the center point of the game. So the story is a 2/10. It gets 2 points for having Tiny Tina and to have a memorial statue of a previous character in the game. That is it.

    So there are some games that are enjoyable without paying attention to the story. Mario for example is fun with a simple story that doesn’t get in the way. You can’t say the story is great but it isn’t a negative aspect. God of War has amazing gameplay and amazing story that helps it immensely. Earth Defense Force is by far the stupidest game in terms of story however has a very fun gameplay that doesn’t hamper the overall game. The Last of Us Part 2 is an okay game when it comes to gameplay but with very bad story that hampers the enjoyment of the game. Borderlands 3 falls into the same category of being an average game with a horrible story. The company already has a long history of being horrible towards their developers as well as the CEO is one of the worst out there…. I don’t believe I would be excited to play from anything else from this company. 4/10 play Borderlands 2 instead    … Expand

    It was a very good experience to play the campaign and even better with friends to have a great time, the only problem I had with this game is the minor lag spikes and the bad story, although the shooting and new things that they introduce keeps me engaged.

    The ultimates/super abilities recharge really fast and feel equally underpowered. Kind of kept forgetting to use mine since it was actually better to just use a gun.

    The gunplay is even more polished than ever, the guns have more variations than ever and the world looks really really nice is some of the later locations. The performance was bad at launch but still above 60fps. Today however it seems vastly improved and im often at 100-140fps on my 3060 Ti.

    No serious bugs or crashes, already completed 3 playthroughs and I'm itching for a 4th. This game is at it's best when played with a couple of friends. Single-Player would probably be a lot less fun.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I bought this game both on Steam & Stadia, they both run very good and I am actually surprised how extremely good it runs and looks on Stadia. I bought BL3 after finally getting tired of BL1, 2 & TPS.

    I love BL3 but not as much as BL2, the gunplay is alot better in BL3 in my opinion, story is decent, playable characters are fun but there is one big issue I have with BL3 and that is how easy it is right off the bat (playing on Normal), i've done multiple playthroughs now and every single time I get overpowered legendaries at around lvl 3-5 that I can bring down bosses up to lvl 15 with in about 5-8 seconds, the spread on loot needs to be tuned down, less legendaries and more purples would be alot better.

    Reason for this is because every time I do a new game, I don't have to upgrade my gear every level, I can use lvl 3-4 legendaries up until about lvl 15 before I need to change, the whole game is about getting better loot, the sellpoint of BL has always been, "A billion guns", "A gazillion guns" etc, you know what I'm talking about and this is completely pointless in BL3, loot barely matters. Sure there is anointment weapons which is basiically the new "legendary" but this system completely removes the need for green and blue items during the whole first playthrough on Normal, it takes away the fun that Borderlands has always been about and it does that right from the start.

    Would I recommend this game? Hell yes, it's a blast to play but for old BL players you may be disappointed and positively surprised at the same time.    … Expand

    Yeah, like was it said for a million times already, the game is summed up really simply: good gameplay, bad narrative. If you've never listened to a single line of quest dialog in the Borderlands series and just followed the marker, you'll be right at home. Otherwise, the lack of coherency and thought put into the plot and writing will be irritating - offensively so at times.

Otherwise, the lack of coherency and thought put into the plot and writing will be irritating - offensively so at times.

    The "good gameplay" is really good. In terms of pure mechanics, this is a superb Borderlands installment. There's some bs with the metagame (inconsistent drops, weak manufacturers), but shooting has never been so fun and responsive in the series. Also, Borderlands finally got actual boss fights, and most of them are really well done, imo.

    The "bad narrative" is really bad. And it's not just about the plot or the characters, I mostly don't even mind them, - everything's awful on a fundamental, moment-to-moment, line-to-line level: the writing, an overwhelming majority of the jokes, pacing, sometimes even the voice acting.

    Everything in between is a mixed bag. Graphics are nice to look at and artists try their best, but results range from fantastic to really bland or even visually irritating sometimes. Soundtrack jumps from memorable and thrilling, complex and fitting pieces to a "meh" audio filler, sound effects are no different.

    Overall, if to approach a score as a dry calculation of good parts vs bad parts, I feel that there was noticeably more good ones, but they're disjointed, unfocused and mixed with some of the worst filth this series has to offer (looking at you, Ava). Better then average experience, but the line it walks not to fall into a complete blunder is so thin, that I cannot force myself to complete DLCs I paid for, so they cannot disappoint me further.

    This game has amazing gameplay and improves on almost every aspect of Borderlands 2, though the story is utter **** and the UI of the game makes Microsoft look like a godsend, everything else lives up to the hype, as the game improved greatly in performance through many updates by the developers, which included extra content on the side.

    The game is amazing only the story is simpler but not bad. The old characters are great but the new ones are annoying and embarrassing.

    I bought the game in December 2020.
    1. Soundtrack is 1000x better than previous games.
    2. The world is 1000x more beautiful than previous games.
    3. Gameplay and gunplay is 1000x better than previous games.
    4. Gun variety actually matters because they are actually unique and do different things.
    5. Story and dialogue and UI is the controversial part.
    6. I didn't encounter any bugs.

    Don't listen epic review bombers, this Is good old Borderlands with many improvements, like really nice gunplay, many jokes on actual happening or some smooth movement. King of 'Looter Shooter' Games is back baby.

    Gearbox has a problem: the fantastic Borderlands 2 is too good to be beaten. But in the case of Borderlands 3, it is still more than a worthy successor. The filmmakers brought many pop-cultural references, maybe pushing too hard on how they want to be “modern”, but otherwise it's a great game again. [Issue#298]

    Borderlands 3 offers a generous experience, with colourful characters, neat gameplay and a charming universe. Its formula, very close to that of the previous episodes does not revolutionize the show but its small new features bring a little freshness and the scenario makes us want to go to the end of the adventure. Its dynamism and nervousness make it a choice piece for adrenaline-ready FPS lovers and license fans.

    The fun, humorous storyline, some great dialogue and theatrical accents of the diverse characters, beautifully varied locations and the same great gunplay that Borderlands is renowned for, means that Borderlands 3 becomes another must have title in the series.
