awh damn wtf. poor claptrap… you’d think as the near-kinda face of the franchise they’d keep that characterization in check since it’s why a lot people liked him at all

I know it can justify it in-universe as years of Living In Borderlands taking their toll but euh

Giving Claptrap’s role in Borderlands to Vaughn and then making Claptrap into an asshole for no reason whatsoever is absolutely garbage writing no matter what way you slice it

#maybe they’l address it in Borderlands 4 somehow (wishful thinking)#thank you for your reply #canadian-riddler!#claptrap #rip bozo #if that updated twitter banner is true the next game could be coming out soon before or after the movie this year since it kinda looks like #a 4 was edited out-ish. and marketing 101 says to release those two in close proximity #actually typing that out just now it actually makes me a bit more worried for his characterization in 4 since movie Claptrap is described #like more assholey than he is in 1. which is fine enough bc the film adaptation doesn’t have to match up with any of the games obv but #yk there’ve been cases where characters are written to be more in line with popular characterization outside their original source #iirc I think this is what happened to him between bl1 and bl2. bc of the Claptrap webseries? except a lot less overtly jerk-like #I’m going on forever here dinddjbddkbdbrdnf—okbye #talking
