    I’ve honestly gotten tired of the formula at this point and I really don’t care what he said or meant. There have been, what, 5 borderlands games so far? and they all play the same with little variation. I bought them all and maybe actually finished 2. I can sit this one out.

      Dude’s not wrong, serious fans will find the money for it…but I think he vastly overestimates how many people are serious fans of Borderlands.

        I’m a serious fan of BL1, 2, TPS, and Tales. Preordered BL3 for that reason. BL3 showed me that I cannot count myself a fan of a game before I’ve played it

      I liked The Pre-Sequel most of all because it did do new stuff that 1-3 didn’t while still being the same type of game (they also have a bunch of PnC adventure games and turn based RPGs that are nothing at all like the main series).

    I’m sorry but that’s just not at all what he said. He said “If you really want it, you’ll find a way to make it work.”

    If you don’t complain when it’s €60, you don’t have to buy it on day one. Take a month or two, or a year, to save up 20 extra and buy it when you’re comfortable.

    You’ll have known about this game for over a year now, if it’s that important to you you’ve had a year to save up.

    And if you’re struggling to make ends meet to the point that you can’t really afford video games, maybe wait for when it gets hugely discounted.

    These are all ways of making it work. The end result is the same, you’ll have played the game.
