    Gameplay is fun or though gets super grindy especially at end game where it becomes more of a slog then fun. Storyline is horrible and full of plot holes. The gameplay improves upon the formula but the storyline hurts it. So for me it’s a maybe buy on sale

    This could've been a 5 star game. There's a glitch that prevents you from discovering all locations, because it deleted all location data when you leave an area.. which you need for all the trophies..

    They have the AUDACITY to have 2 season passes for CRAP, no new characters..

    And the story is GARBAGE...

    This breaks my dam heart. This game deserved to have more love put into it.

    Amazing game! I have played all of the Borderlands Games, and this one is by far the best and most addictive.

    几个小时就不想玩了，敌人的动作都一样，无脑开放世界，中文配音非常傻，新手引导很差，一来就抛出来很多东西让人不知该怎么办。
    枪支还不错。

    Terrible optimalization, lags and stutters. Story that could be rated 0/10 followed by tons of legendary weapons with funcionality not explained. FInally, amount of particles and effects is so high, you cant even see whats going on.

    Overall, disapointment written all over my face

Borderlands 3 brings a noticeable improvement in gameplay, compared to other games in the franchise, the combat system is fluid most of the time, except when problems with the game's AI appear. Borderlands 3's artificial intelligence is "a little broken", sometimes during combat, your opponent gives up everything and walks out as if nothing were happening, there are also some bug problems in which players (whether you, someone else or an npc) cross objects. The story of the game is fun sometimes, but at certain times it ends up repeating dull jokes and objectives, the main negative point of Borderlands 3 is the absurd amount of micro-transactions, a bad decision for the franchise's legacy.… Expand

    Honestly if the gun play and action and looting wasn't so tight and fun I would absolutely hate this game. The story here falls short not necessarily because of the narrative itself but the characters that you have to interact with. More times than not, they're annoying and just feel incredibly unimportant to anything.

The story here falls short not necessarily because of the narrative itself but the characters that you have to interact with. More times than not, they're annoying and just feel incredibly unimportant to anything. This is probably the first game I ever played where I straight up turned the dialogue slider to 0 and just read subtitles, because I just didn't want to listen to anyone anymore.
    Again, the actual gameplay is as tight as its always been. Its still satisfying as ever to shoot a bunch of enemies, loot guns, toss grenades and use over the top abilities, and with the new vault hunters there are even more toys to play with.
    Soundtrack is fantastic with tons of varying styles of music happening across the different settings you'll be traveling to. Side quests are also very enjoyable and retain a lot of the humour that previous games have.
    Overall the game is no different than 1 and 2 aside from the main story, which is a shame because that was a part of the previous games that shined the most.    … Expand

    With each new content update, the game takes a jump in excitement. Searching for new items and playing through a new story is fun but the game always eventually falls flat and loses the endgame amazement previous titles have.

    After years of teasing this game, Borderlands 3 does disappoint in not being as good as its prequel (not The Pre-Sequel) however showcases a lot in designs and interest.

    The game was good overall. I liked the guns, the fighting... not so much the story. Comparing this game to its predecessors there are stark differences in character development, storytelling, etc. BL3 just had such a short and unfulfilling story that it felt like a waste of money. The boss battles were alright and I didn't feel like I accomplished much by beating any of them. There areThe game was good overall. I liked the guns, the fighting... not so much the story.

    A kind of amateur game. For me, the main plus was that you can play in two on one screen.

    when i first played the game i didnt like it that much, it was a stong 6, but still a fun experience with my friend. I revisited the game and i liked it a lot more. the game is fun, the gameplay feels smooth. I would never say it is better than 2 but still a fun co-op

    La campaña de marketing que tuvo este juego fue inmensa. Era el juego que sucedía a Borderlands fcking 2, la gente esperaba mucho. Obviamente con los ojos del hype en su momento me parecció todo genial, pero bueno, ahora viene lo bueno:

    -Lo jugué con un amigo que era igual de hardcore fan de la saga que yo, y ambos acabamos hartos de lo laaaaaaaaaaaaaaarga que es la historia principal. Es, abrumadoramente larga hasta el punto de que en una primera partida por ella, lo único que queríamos ya hacía el final es que acabara,

    -Encima de eso, la historia es horrenda. Se cagan en los personajes del 2 y los que introducen nuevos son monigotes sin personalidad.

    -Se les fue la pinza con los DLC, muchisima pasta, muchisimas versiones y todo al final para sacar los cuartos.

    -Las clases son bastante peores que en juegos previos. Moze la buscacámaras con peor diseño que habrá jamás y en general quitando FL4K y un poco Zane, personajes del montón.

    -NO HAY NI UNA SOLA HABILIDAD DENTRADA EN SNIPERS (en general son mil veces peores que en los juegos anteriores), nisiquiera en FL4K a pesar de que todo su material publicitario lo pintan como sniper.

    -El humor está de relleno, muchísimo bajón en ese aspecto con respecto a los otros juegos.

    -Se gastaron toda la imaginación en crear a Jack el Guapo y no ha tenido ni idea de que hacer desde entonces.

    En general para mi este juego es chusta en comparación a los otros de la saga pero el gameplay y los gráficos en general son muy sólidos. Si introdujeran el mismo gameplay en Borderlands 2 sería fácil uno de los mejores FPS de la historia.    … Expand

    Игра то неплохая... даже тянет на крепкую семерочку... но оптимизация на пс4 просто ужасная. Игра во первых идет только в 30 фпс с частыми просадкоми до 26-24 фпс, а во во вторых не знаю у кого как, но у меня она довольно часто вылетала, и это я играл через 2 года после релиза что там было у тех кто играл сразу на релизе и знать не хочу.Игра то неплохая... даже тянет на крепкую семерочку... но оптимизация на пс4 просто ужасная.

    It's a good game if you don't focus on the story. IMO the story is boring and too long. Quests are repeatable and only a few side quests surprised me. Sometimes it's very funny, but sometimes it's totally dumb, but probably it's an assumption of this world. The gameplay is awesome, the combat is very fast and satisfactory, but sometimes there is to much chaos. The loot system it's a mess.It's a good game if you don't focus on the story.

A lot of really good stuff have much lower score than items with very high score that were completely useless, so after some time I was tired of collecting a new stuff, especially when you kill the boss and you will receive tones of useless stuff.… Expand

    More guns, more planets, more skills, more… more. If you liked the previous ones, this gives you plenty of the same to enjoy. Borderlands 3 is the very definition of the bigger and better sequel. [Issue#168, p.76]

    Borderlands 3 is a by-the-book sequel that takes no risks. Veteran Borderlands players will embrace it, but others will find that it has not evolved enough.

    Factor in the graphical glitches, rampant texture pop-in and generally asthmatic performance levels, even when running on a PS4 Pro with settings optimised to favour smooth running, and there really is no end of reasons not to love Borderlands 3 (and don’t even think about Googling developers Gearbox Games’ litany of employee relations history)...And yet... love it, I do. Guilty as charged.
