Borderlands 3!

Yeah that could suck. Well as long as they're (re)configurable...
 
Oh wow, I totally forgot about all the "old west" (Gehenna) stuff in BL3, am enjoying very much playing through that again (with FL4K). I love the narration.

I swear the guy narrating in Gehanna sounds like Matthew McConaughy??!!
 
Just finished the main storyline. Glad I replayed this, there was a lot I'd forgotten. I only have 513 hours in BL3 though so I guess I'm still a newb.

I've played 565 hours and 13 minutes...what does that make me?
If you go by the website "how long to beat" it says a BL3 completionist with dlc's included would be about 150 hours??
 
Eh maybe for a single character and all the side missions. But my time is what it is because I played all the character classes at least once, often more than once with different skill trees.

And... here we go! Downloading BL4 now, about to start. I actually took the day off tomorrow so I can play all day. :thumbsup:
 
Started it yesterday around 1pm. My video card was less than stellar..about mid 30's FPS. My son came home from university and made some tweaks and now I get high 50's sometimes low 60s's. This is all with graphics set to LOW..so less than stellar. May have to buy a better graphics card. SO far I like it..some things to get used to, like grappling which I have never done. Only on level 7.

PS: It occurred to me Pauly that someone such as yourself who is an accomplished piano player must find it easy for your fingers to find all these keys. Me on the other hand (haha) have a real struggle figuring out which fingers to use to press which keys!!! First world problems!!!

Ha ha, yeah it has occurred to me sometimes that piano may help a little bit with some of the fingers movements on the keyboard, but I still confuse myself sometimes especially in the heat of battle, I kinda suck at that actually.

I’m liking it a lot so far, yeah there’s some new stuff and the feel is a little different from before and I’m still getting used to the inventory system even after a full day of playing.

Fortunately, my GPU is quite capable :) but I did have to break down and get a improved UPS because the power draw when my GPU is going all out is more than my previous one could handle, and I did reach that limit a few times, especially in boss fights, where there’s a lot going on all at once.
 
Well the first really big boss fight (Sol) was a royal pain in the ass but I finally managed it. But that seems to be typical of BL games; subsequent playthroughs get a lot easier because of bonuses earned with previous characters. Although I'm not sure yet if/how that'll work in BL4.
 
Finish my first playthrough - as Rafa. Enjoyed it very much! But now I have Assassin's Creed Shadows DLC and Dyling Light the Beast to play... but I'll be back to BL4 before too long. Which character(s) did you play?
 
I'm playing Amon. I am only on level 17. Had a minor surgery recently which has kept me off the PC. Plus, as mentioned previously....I am REALLY slow at this gaming thing!! But..I am enjoying it. Contrary to all the reports it seems to be running fine on my older pc.
 
Finished the main campaign with my second character (Vex, with the "pet" skill tree), this time in hard mode (first time was normal mode). Yeah it got harder but by this point you've already developed combat strategies and you know the "tricks" of how to beat the major bosses, so it wasn't too bad. Now I'm experimenting with the "ultimate vault hunter" modes which isn't just like new game+, there's a bit more to it than that. I've never really bothered with this "end game" stuff wih Borderlands, and not sure that I care to take it too far - just got to UVH2 mode, and it was challenging. I don't want this to turn into a slog that just pisses me off... will probably play something else for a bit and then start over with another character (probably Amon). Now they're talking about a 5th character coming out in DLC sometime next year.
