I love the game, it is one of my favourite games. It's a funny game with one of the best writings in a video game. I bought the game previously so I'm lucky. However, can someone from 2K explain to me the reason why the game is sold for 143,99 Turkish Liras when Telltale sold it for 39 liras. For reference, currently Cyberpunk 2077 is sold for 166 Liras with 33% discount. I'm pretty sure you haven't sold a lot with those prices. Regional prices should be updated for the game. I don't know what your marketing team thought about when setting those prices.Show moreShow less
I skipped the credits. "Telltale Games will remember that."Show moreShow less
it's sad that even a single player, story-driven, OFFLINE game got hit with the new EULA/ToS no longer a "real fan" Edit: this ACTUALLY is a good game, however I will not recommend until the EULA & ToS are changed. This game and BL2 were peak for the IP. I will be passing on cringelands 4 though.. Randy made borderlands bad. Sorry but he did.Show moreShow less
Bought the wrong game. Didn't care. 10/10Show moreShow less
The game started out strong, Borderlands has never been an IP I was interested in, but because of Telltale's other games I decided to give it a try. And what I got was a really interesting, well-written and most importantly, genuinely funny game. At first... Because around episode 3, the writing became noticeably worse. By the 4th episode (at the time this review was first penned) the writing quality has taken such an abrupt dive that I was pondering getting a refund. As it turns out Telltale decided, against better judgement, to bring in a writer from the original Borderlands games. One who apparently was not informed he was supposed to be writing for a comedic adventure game, and instead delivers cringe-worthy scenes which feels out of place both in terms of pacing and content. Turning what could potentially have been fun scenes into head-shakingly bad soapboxing about issues which really does not pertain to the story that is unfolding, and seems born out some some personal crusade to be the very-most progressivest widdle guy in the business. Clearly, just because someone is involved in the creation of a game does not mean they should be kept around for later iterations of said series. Call this "the George Lucas effect", if you want. With the series now concluded (with no small amount of self-ironic quipping about the embarrassingly slow development pace in the intro), I feel like Telltale against all odds managed to pry a somewhat satisfying ending from the mess of the penultimate episode. Still, because of the immense amount of time it took to release every episode, the poor choice of including a new secondary writer halfway through, and what seems like a general confusion at Telltale studio as to how to juggle several projects at the same time, I cannot bring myself to recommend this title for the full price. I would recommend getting it on sale, now that it has been concluded. And in the future I (and many others, I suspect) will be more vary about buying Telltale products on release, especially if their new Minecraft game is an indication of the time and effort to be put into their products from now on.Show moreShow less
I had a finger-gun gunfight in the middle of Hyperion's Hub of Heroism... ...It was a slaughter-fest 11/10 Honestly, this game was better than I expectedShow moreShow less
This is not what I was hoping for. Some people will like this, but I really didn't enjoy it very much. I was hoping for an adventure game more in the style of the Telltale Sam and Max or Back to the Future games, but this is pretty much a mash up of the Telltale Walking Dead and Jurassic Park games. There are only 4 or 5 'adventure' bits where you directly control your character, otherwise you're just picking dialog choices and being told "so and so will remember this.", or you're hitting buttons fervedly in QTE sequences. The story itself is decent, thankfully, and if you liked the Walking Dead Telltale games, you'll probably like this. I was hoping for something more engaging -- this was a 2 hour and 20 minute ever-so-slightly-choose your own adventure game. Much more watching than doing.Show moreShow less
I don't have much in the way of experience when it comes to writing long serious reviews. But I firgured since this review was getting more views I might as well redo this whole thing. So here it goes: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tales of the Borderlands is a choice-driven adventure game (in Telltale's signature format) in which you play as either Rhys, a Hyperion employee with big dreams and Finoa, a local con-woman ready to make her biggest con yet, taking place after the events of Borderlands 2. In the first episode Rhys's promotion and all chances of moving up in the company are ruined when a rival steps in and becomes his new boss. Rhys then comes up with a plan to get back at them by stealing the vault key, an alien aritfact capable of unlocking great wealth and power, which led to his rivals promotion from right under their nose. With the help of his two best friends, Vaughn and Yvette, he makes his way to possibly the most dangerous planet in the galaxy, Pandora. Meanwhile, Finoa in her home town of Hollow Point on Pandora is preparing for her greatest con yet. Helping her she has her sister Sasha and their mentor/foster father Felix. Events unfold and the two must work together to discover a treasure of epic proportions! People who have played any of Telltale's games will know what to expect in terms of gameplay. Small areas to navigate in which you look and interact with the enviroment with simple puzzles along with lots of cutscenes with many quick time events. Needless to say, the game's main focus is on it's storytelling which it does very well. People who have not had the pleasure of playing any of the first two Borderlands games might get lost in terms of the lore (as well as a few jokes) but it is not needed as the game does a good job on focusing more on the central premise of the story. People who are familar with the Borderlands games will enjoying getting to see Pandora from a whole different view point (rather than just running around shooting everything). There are plenty of humour to be found in the writing even if you are not a fan and action cutscenes that are throughly entertaining! So in summary: If you are fan of Telltale's adventure games then this is basically the same thing you are used only in a lighter setting and I highly recommend.Show moreShow less
Written upon completion of Episode 1. Maybe it's just not the right game for me, but the overall impression it has left is this: What. The story so far seems to be about greed, more greed, morons behaving like morons, fraud, backstabbing and close calls. None of the player characters or their supporting cast are likeable, and trying to instill some redeeming qualities in them seems like an awful chore, with little to no immediate return. That said, the only likeable character in the whole Episode 1 is Zer0 - who is, well, Zer0, in all his Borderlands 2 glory and then some - and, truth to be told, I played the game to see him, resulting in my sole not-disappointment. The talk mechanics are uncomfortable, presenting you with very little information on whan you character will actually say, which can result in awkward choices made... choices that you have to make in a limited amount of time, which is very annoying. Sure there is a pause button there for stopping the action in its tracks (don't know if it works during decision-making)... but, unfortunately, no fast-forward for skipping conversations that you do not want to hear (or heard already). And it has button-mashing QTE - a sin in my book, no matter how you look at it. Bottom line? Pick if you are a Telltale fan. Consider if you are a Borderlands fan. Wait for sale. And in any case, NOT recommended.Show moreShow less
