I just started the second one, which didn’t involve Telltale other than the general format. So far, it’s awful. But I’ll also stick it out, because I have a feeling it’s going to be canon, and I came this far through the series.
1 wasn’t quite polished enough for me, but 2 was a lot of fun. The writing for the other two was horrendous, but I played through 3 for the gameplay loop; I would just turn off audio for a while when they talked too much.
The Telltale game is fine for what it is, but their games are all exposition hallways.
I’m not getting 4 until it’s $60 or less - if then.
3 was rough, borderlands shouldve figured out how to present the story with gameplay by now, you end up taking an hour detour where you do nothing often

1 and 2 were legitimately good games.
Pre-Sequel was terrible, 3 was better but still not good.
Can’t say I remember enough about the Tell Tale game to have an opinion which may also very well be an opinion. ;)
First Telltale game was very good and was one of my favorite Telltale games. Didn’t hear great things about three second one.

I feel like 1 had the best vibe, 2 had the best story (but also the worst balance) and 3 had the most fun vault hunter designs.
It has Denuvo; I wouldn’t get it if it was free.
Eh, I’d claim it for free, but wait until Denuvo was gone before playing it.
On console, Denuvo isn’t an issue. :)
That’s right. If you handcuff yourself they don’t have to do it for you.
It’s a dedicated monotasker, not handcuffs. Consoles have always been that way.
I certainly remember getting some meaningful and surprising twists in the Telltale game, at least.
