Borderlands: The Sequel Pre - [PlayStation 3] (Video Game)

Customer Review

I simply put directly los:

The biggest change in the Pre-Sequel in my opinion is the greatest weakness: the moon setting. Initially quite cool yet, after a while, but I thought it was extremely boring. And because the location does not change throughout the game (clearly, it does so on the moon!) Quickly made me bored wide, at least with regard to the environment. But the whole jump around in weightlessness, now, at the beginning it's cool, but because it runs through the whole game, it quickly becomes annoying.

In general, there are far fewer maps, as in the two predecessors. So it really seemed to me as if I were actually "only" gamble an add-on. All this really is only at this moon setting. Everything else is fully in order. Four new characters, laser weapons, the new Frost element and a playing time of about 20 hours (for the first run, including a few side missions) are my full price (in my case it was 43 Euro) was definitely worth it.

The graph I find not so plump. Generally not the cel shading in itself, I think that is good, but the "development" of the graph. I dare namely to suggest that it has become worse. If you take to the faces of some NPCs zooms ran or considered the rock walls of the canyon, wow, that's really grottig! Also in sequences, when new characters are introduced, you can see quite obvious graphical glitches, for example Moxxi, "hang" their hair through the clothes. The seeming simplicity cheap.

The music is pretty cool, although they (especially in boss battles) rather goes down. The missions are partly funny, sometimes ridiculous and really unnecessary. It runs for example to a guy who talks to him, which opens a window and that's it! NOT MORE! The guy in the second part, where you had to shoot in the face was at least funny.

The new heads that you can unlock for each character, disappoint across the board. Really, I personally found for any of the four characters of an unlockable heads better than the standard head. Clear tastes are different, but this selection here I found quite poor. In addition, there is only one Charakteranpassugsstation in the game. This is really annoying, they were scattered in the second part yet all over the world. And now no one should say, on the moon it would indeed make sense. In this game, namely does nothing makes sense. (Edit: Ok, in BL2 gabs only two stations in Liars Mountain and Sanctuary The remaining then there was just the DLC Maps My mistake, nevertheless annoying...)

Drop Council I find a bit strange. Throughout the first run I found no humor, no more than two or three purple weapons! Maybe I was just unlucky, but that was extreme. The vending machines have offered the whole game with just white and green equipment. But like I said, maybe I was just unlucky. I found it striking yet. (Edit: Also, in the second run, I find mostly green Items From blue or even purple no trace what's going on ?!).

Nevertheless, my game of course was fun. I bought a Borderlands and get a Borderlands, no question. What I find very nice is that the characters, so speaks as in Tiny Tina's DLC "Assault on Dragon Keep," everyone has their own sets and Comments on missions raushaut, whereupon answer the NPCs depending on character. This is really a nice touch.

In this part one gets its Action skill at level 3, not as before only on Level 5. In addition, each character now has several skills that cost only one point. Of course, saving skill points and thus it is possible, at level 50 two Ultimates (or whatever you want to call the last skills of each Skill Trees) to have, which was not possible in the predecessors without level cap increase. I find personally a pity, because before each player could differ even more from others, even if you've played the same character. But well, I can live with.

I think that's it for now. Who liked the predecessor, will have The Pre-Sequel probably eh already bought. It is a typical Borderlands with the same strengths and weaknesses as its predecessor. As well as the HUD and the inventory has absolutely nothing changed, really comes a game before this more like another (extremely large!) DLC. Just buy. Who has fun to gamble with a buddy splitscreen or online with other types, is happy here definitely.
