Gearbox: Battleborn Is More Like A Fighting Game With Lots of Heroes And Actions

Borderland developer gearbox is going to release a hero-versus-hero FPS called Battleborn. In the game, gearbox takes the design style from Borderland to create characters. The gameplay is similar to a MOBA game, but has some differences. The developer said Battleborn is more like a fighting game, like Street Fighters, with a number of characters and actions. So, what is Battleborn exactly? You may find out the answer from 2P's interview with Gearbox

Actually after hearing the campaign will be short, I am not nearly as interested as I was before. Sounds like the focus of the game will be mainly PvP MOBA style. While I know that will appeal to a lot of people, I was looking forward to a single player campaign the length of Borderlands 2. I'm no longer sure if I will purchase this game.

Hopefully, they fired the entire writing team after B3 cause that dialogue was truly atrocious.

doubtful... this is gearbox we're talking about.. Randy thinks everything the studio does is gold because he has a bad concept of reality

FFS make something else. If you can't make anything new, at least bring back Brothers In Arms or something.

I know it will never happen (for obvious story reasons that's happened) but I wish we could play the original Vault hunters again with new abilities you could choose to develop in a skill branch. Never really felt I could get behind most of them after the first game, especially move wise. Lilith's phase walk will always be the best to me.

Speaking of Lilith, I'm kind of wondering how they'll get around the whole Siren thing since they wrote themselves into a corner saying there's "only 6 Sirens in the entire universe" and now thanks to Borderlines 3 they apparently pass on their abilities meaning once we see each of 6 powers available that's it, no new brand new ones. I don't know why they don't just say there's more than 6 since all of them in the ENTIRE Universe just conveniently coming to Pandora is a bit strange.

That's super easy to get around. Each person that has the skill could have their own personal spin on it. There could be a new power that morphs them into something else. One of the weapon manufacturers could experiment on 5 of the Sirens and the 6th would have to fight a horde of siren powered bad guys to rescue the others. Fiction has been there and done that with power more complex or simple thousands of times before.

As for revisting the first game? That would be totally unlike the gaming industry to reboot a series...

Tina's Wonderland loot was not rewarding.

They haven't handled comedy well since Burke left.
