the more i see from New Tales From the Borderlands, the more depressed i get. this is very unfunny, and i dont use that lightly. i cant believe this is a canonical game. 😔 it feels like someone who doesnt know anything about borderlands wrote it. someone who doesnt understand Any amount of human interaction and Basic storytelling. the let's player i'm watching says it feels like an AI wrote it and it really does; it feels like a cashgrab. :( the voice actors really seem to be trying, but they can't save the super shitty writing and cringey dialogue.
i've played a lot of games that are messy and flawed, but even games i hate or strongly dislike have Some potential in them. SOMETHING redeemable. but not New Tales From the Borderlands. :/ i guess you can say the animations are pretty good? but idk, most of the time, it feels really goofy and over-exaggerated, especially with the awkward script. and in some scenes, it's Really stiff and just plain Weird. and decent animations definitely dont make up for ineffective, confusing, and very Poor writing. it just feels like those videos where they remove the laugh tracks from shows: extremely Unnatural, Unnerving, and very Manufactured. it is a really shit sequel to the original Tales From the Borderlands and i'm assuming it doesnt succeed bl3 very well either. what a waste.
#rant#i got into borderlands late but i loved most of the games#i started tiny tina and bl3 but havent gotten very far in them#tiny tina is fun but bl3 i was just skipping dialogue to get to the fighting#tiny tina writing isnt the best So Far but it's definitely more interesting bc dnd#like BL1 didnt have Much story imo but it was a Very interesting world to explore and each game after expanded it#i found myself invested in a lot of the games i've played from this series but bruh wtf is NTFTB???#this didnt have any marketing behind it and i see why#it's not even funny bad it's just bad#i dont even consider myself a borderlands superfan or whatever- i just enjoyed the games even tho im bad at looter shooters#the premise of NTFTB doesnt even make sense!!! such a strange offputting story!!!
