First up on the list is the new siren, Amara. It seems that at least some of her abilities will be melee focused, but she will also have a phase lock to keep enemies in place. An interesting ground-pound ability can also be seen in the trailer. Zane is known as the Operative, and is currently the one that is the most mysterious. The trailer showed off his hologram duplicate ability, but that was it. One of the most interesting Vault Hunters has to be Flak, the Beastmaster. He can control different pets, each with their own unique abilities. If the reveal trailer is to be believed, then he can summon a Skag, a Spiderant, and what appears to be a modified Bullymong that has a robot arm. Last on the list is Moze, who can call down a mech to control. What’s great about her ability is that other players can hop on the back to control a mounted turret in co-op play Apparently there is some hidden release date in the trailer which points to October 2019 | ||

Epic store has some games I don't mind waiting a year longer to play but getting them on steam like Ashen, Metro: Exodus and Hades, but Borderlands 3... I just might cave in and DL the epic store launcher TT.TT I mean if and only if Borderlands 3 will be a good game. I'm always willing to wait a week or 2 after release for the non-paid non-shill reviews to pop up, but waiting a whole year for a steam release... woah THAT would be soul crushing. | ||

And then, he'll turn around and have it on Steam. Keep in mind Pitchford's love of illusion and deception as a "learning tool". | ||

If Pitchford is trolling us then damn, he is gangsta. He is as gangsta as Marcus Kincaid. | ||

But that guy did test the waters with a tweet a few days/weeks ago with something along the lines of "happy to be extending our partnership with Epic for another year" or so... so... Fuck I dunno. | ||

Not really. It has its own story with an absolutely terrific villain to boot. But character-wise, yes, to refresh your memory of who is who. I dunno if names like Lilith Mordrecai Brick and Roland still ring a bell to you? They were the original vault hunters and they come back for some cameos and as supporting characters. But BL2 is fantastic. The Pre-sequel however... can be argued over  , but I still <3 Athena. | ||

It's cool to see returning characters but if you're really into it you can just read up about BL1 protagonists and the story on the wiki or something. Personally I played BL2 before BL1 and never had an issue with that (I only vaguely knew about BL1 characters). | ||

Apparently Borderlands on steam is fully riding the hype wave with more concurrent players than ever EDIT: Just checked on Steam: The handsome Collection incluceds BL 2 and Pre-Sequel with every DLC, Skin, Weapon and whatnot for ~15 bucks. Can't go wrong there | ||

Also, is anyone worried that this doesn't have a steam page yet? Even if they say COMING IN 2020, I'd feel much safer if the game had an actual store page to wishlist... | ||

Yeee... there might be an issue here. Rumoured to be an Epic exclusive and all that. Rumoured release is 13. September More on that hopefully tomorrow | ||

This is troubling indeed. | ||
