    Tales from the Borderlands: Episode 5 – The Vault of the Traveler is the best episode Telltale Games has produced in any of its ongoing series since the finale of the first season of its iconic Walking Dead series.

    Tales From the Borderlands may be the best series from Telltale to date. It blends humor, action, and drama in a way that few games, of any kind, have been able to do.

    Telltale Games bring to us another crazy adventure. It's one of the best Telltale games to date with a strong story, a lot of fun and an epic end that the players will be charmed with.

Very emotional episode throughout with just the right balance of action and story-telling. Definitely worth the time.… Expand

    A very satisfying conclusion to the game and one if it's best episodes. Which is saying something given that they've all been quality up toA very satisfying conclusion to the game and one if it's best episodes. Which is saying something given that they've all been quality up to this point. Telltale is no stranger to emotional endings. However, they're usually of the very depressing kind. Just take a look at their Walking Dead games. Here though your emotions are in a much more positive state when the credits roll. It's still hard to say goodbye to these characters, but we leave them on a more upbeat note than we would have in other Telltale games.

    Every thread is wrapped up nicely. We get a few last minute big choices to make and a final battle that's just flat out epic. This is really is some of the best action I've experienced in a Telltale game thus far. The quick time events in this episode are a blast. We also get to see how our choices from previous episodes influence how our final conflict plays out. There's a set ending, but we get to personalize it in quite a few different ways.

    The humor is still very much alive in The Vault of the Traveler. I had quite a few laughs to alongside the touching moments of friendship and family, as well as the heartbreaking scenes. Everything you've loved so far about the game is present once again here, only now refined down to the letter to ensure that your final moments on Pandora are as enjoyable as possible. Some slow loading screens that lead to choppy transitions to other scenes aside, episode 5 more than delivers.    … Expand
