    My friend was really into borderlands for a while, So I picked this up to see what the world was all about. This is more of an interactive choose your own adventure story than a game. The music in it was really good, and it was decently voice acted. Some of the choices you make can be interesting, but at the end of the day I felt it was trying too hard to be humorous.

I didn't really care much for the characters and the humor kind of felt like a big inside joke. A couple parts were genuinely good for a laugh, but much of the time my mind was drifting off to playing actual games during my time with this title. Expand

    Technically, this isn't a marvel, though as a closing chapter to this wonderful series, it delivers where it counts.

    Despite these gripes, Tales from the Borderlands – Episode 5: The Vault of the Traveler gloriously wraps up one of Telltale’s best stories.
