Initially I was lured by the Borderlands name because anything Borderlands tends to be great and also the fact that this was supposed to be a funny game. I haven't played a lot of Telltale games because I'm not a huge fan of episodic games but I'm really happy I played this one.
#TALES FROM THE BORDERLANDS GAME STOPS AT GAME OVER FULL#
It's not worth the full price because of everything I've mentioned and because one playthrough took me a scant 11h. It's a good story overall and if you enjoy a good story you should pick this up whenever it's on sale. The worst of it had me either cursing at the game or just plain bored, fortunately there are more good moments than bad in this game. Come on Telltale, was it so hard to let them kiss at some point of the game? Conclusion: The best of Tales from the Borderlands had me laughing and root for the protagonists. Depending on your choices there can be a romantic sub-plot between two of the characters but it never really developed despite my best efforts. This was by far the most frustrating part of the game and it took me a while to figure it out. Even though there are plenty of other directions the turret could be facing without seeing you, the game will shoot down your character relentlessly unless you the exact direction they wanted you to pick. There's a sequence where you're supposed to avoid some turrets fire and the game will only let you progress if you click to advance when the turrets are facing a single predefined direction. Most of the "action" sequences in the story are well crafted but when they, they fail badly. This ends up breaking the game a little and turning some parts of the story flat-out boring. As a result the characters are never in any real danger because I know that no matter what I choose to do the game will always find a way for the main characters to continue. Graphical glitches, some popping and stuttering. This would be useful when repeating certain parts of the game. What I didn't like: - There either isn't or I didn't find a way to skip some of the conversations. A certain "gunfight" in the offices :P (you'll know what it is once you play it). Failing miserably at taking down a guard while telling everyone it was under control. At its best it's great, it's really fun. If you don't like any of these elements or if you were looking for a highly interactive experience then you should stay away from this game (even though this is not a bad game). There are also some very tiny "exploration" sequences where you'll get to move your character in a tiny area while interacting with other characters a searching for items and/or paths. You'll get to watch a cool story, choose dialogue in a split of a second (most of them have a timer, if you fail to choose your character will remain silent) and "play" some quick time events on the action sequences. It's almost not a game and there's nothing wrong with it. Intro: Tales from the Borderlands is a digital story. I did watch a long play of the first Borderlands and played 67h of Borderlands 2 so I'm mostly up to date with the lore. You'll get to watch a cool story, Warning: contains very mild spoilers! Background: I've never played a Telltale game before, this was my first time.

I've never played a Telltale game before, this was my first time. Warning: contains very mild spoilers! Background: If you go into this game with the mindset of choose what you want to say or do instead of choosing your own adventure, you will enjoy it a lot I know I did. The only negatives were that most of the action pieces were not that fun to play, and lacking real user choice consequences. The world of borderlands was wonderfully imagined in this game, something borderlands fans probably will enjoy. The story was pretty good, kept me interested throughout, and the characters were top notch and really like-able. Heck, I would even say buy this game just for the laughs, it really keeps the game fresh. It replaces that formula with humor, and it does a excellent job at that. This game is up there with the walking dead, just not as emotionally tolling or keeps you that invested in. The story was pretty good, kept me interested throughout, A quality interactive game, and another quality telltale game. A quality interactive game, and another quality telltale game.
