Borderlands 3 has the best writing of the series

[Holografix]

Villians are awesome and the characters are well rounded. Amazing game.

People have been complaining about the writing and dialog since the beginning. Seems like a lot of the time the arguments are more that they disagree with the writing.

Looking forward to BL4

Thank you. I am the same way, and agree with your comment. Can't wait for BL4!

Holo is this what you make the threads for to fish for opinions that match yours? Again your in the minority with the story, seriously go harass another forum.

i have a lot of super fans. here's a question and a possible idea for a game:

“Superfans” … really? You want to compare yourself to Tyreen?

Tyreen was (canonically) a conceited, entitled, spoiled child, who completely misunderstood how much out of her own depth she was; how much she over estimated her own powers, her own understanding of the universe and her personal situation. She was a person who mistakenly thought the universe revolved around her, when, as evidenced by the story, it did not.

Is that really the energy you want to channel into the space? (As my daughter, the theatre major might say).

Remind me again ... who's fault is it that all you see are "blocked user" "blocked user" "blocked user"?

Sure, that is a thing that could happen. It is a thing that is within the realm of possibility. The question becomes: Why would we? What value would doing such a thing have for us? Would we learn anything? You frequently suppose that we have "low media literacy", that we have "misunderstood" what the story and characters of BL3 are intended to represent. This is disingenuous and disrespectful. You are, in essence, calling us "stupid" (or at least "uneducated").

Contrary to your supposition, we have a perfectly serviceable grasp of the story and of the mechanics thereof. (Indeed, in my opinion our understanding of the nuances of the story are vastly superior to your own).

I reiterate: Who's fault is that? The world rolls on without you, if you choose to shut it out.

No, of course not. There are others who share your viewpoint. That doesn't mean you're not an outlier however. Nor does it mean that your outlier status autonomically conveys some sort of innate value. You're entitled to your opinion, but that doesn't mean that your opinion has any value in the aggregate

We comprehend your position far better than you imagine. Contrary to what you seem to imagine, your opinion isn't particularly complex

Or ... or, you could accept that we have a right to our own opinions about the game and the story, and if those opinions differ from your own, that doesn't automatically mean they're without intrinsic value.

Edit: <sighs> curse you lysdexia.

Good response above, I do still want to point out holo never explained his position of why the story is good for them. All they've ever done is passive aggressive insults to anyone with a different view. So neither or even holo knows why he likes the story.

and it is not the first thread where Holo has done that. this time he is a bit faster with removing all the BS from his comments but it is still nothing but a troll-thread.
Still gotta wonder why even after all his insults he is not banned.

this isn't a troll thread.

[Junipercat]

Because of their complete disrespect of others and their constant insulting anyone who "dares" have a different view of anything to them, I suspect at this point that any thread created by Holo is a troll thread. And that is not exclusive to the Borderlands' forums.

Yeah, I'd agree with that assessment.

Actually, the point is more that we disagree with Holo's view points, and every time Holo unblocks one of us to check whether or not they can find an excuse to report us for being "disrespectful" and discovers that they can't, that's a win for us. Holo has to put up with counter-arguments in their own thread that they can't remove, and can't even acknowledge, or we'll all know that they "unblocked" one of us just to check.

And in a way it is entertaining - like watching a trainwreck - when you see Holo thinking that bandit-quotes are the pinnacle of philosophy.
