is the dlc being made by hopoo

[doofus0510]

please god let it be made by the actual creators of the game

[doofus0510]

im worried because the DLC says developer gearbox

[15 miles on the Erie Canal]

No, it's by gear box. Hopoo sold it to them. But gearbox helped a lot with the Void DLC, so they aren't coming in blind. They should be able to do a fine job.

The first dlc was mostly made by gearbox too, I'm thinking that's why hopoo trusted them with their IP, the reason for radio silence was because they were working on the code for console. I too was anraged but more at hopoo for teasing their new old game onto Risk of rain 2 tab.

After seeing their video I felt kinda bad we were mad at them for not rewriting the game faster.

[doofus0510]

oh ok i was just a bit worried as i love risk of rain and hope the dlc is good

[Angel]

Same. 😃

Gearbox made Borderlands. What could go wrong ?

Gearbox after fantastic 2012 BL2 released/developed:

failed Colonial Marines that had to be fixed by modders.
questionable/mixed BL pre-sequel
failed Battleborn, greedy re-remaster of Duke Nukem 3d
re-release of Bulletstorm just to get some cash out of new consoles
attrocius BL3 and weird New Tales of BL

While some things were under 2K's trash direction, they still were taking part in it.
so yeah, trust not yet restored, I'd be happier if Hopoo kept their games, their lore and direction instead of letting other company take over creating new stuff without their guidance.

i mean the borderlands games are widely regarded as some of the best 4 player coop games around, up until pre sequel i guess, i think its better off in their hands than any other ♥♥♥♥ AAA devs, just as long as randy pitchford can keep his ♥♥♥♥♥♥ reddit humor and usb magic tricks out it'll be peachy

calling bl3 atrocious is the biggest stretch ever, best game in the franchise gameplay wise just the story sucks

Only in relation to bl2. It was a great game, but compared to BL2 it was underwhelming.

Sort of like if you forgot to put in vanilla in chocolate chip cookies, they will turn out fine, but be not quite as good as they could have been.

@Deadoon

Agreed, I treat this game as last decent BL in the series, but used it to show that after 2012 something went wrong with Gearbox and they went onto some sort of a downfall as devs.

@TheInternetDucky

tbh i put all my heart writing what's wrong with BL3 in short, but steam didn't let me post it and now i feel too lazy writing that again
I have my reasons to treat BL3 rather badly as well as its "best in series" gameplay.
It would probably a better game for newcommers, but not for me.

Anyways, my experience with Gearbox after 2014 is nothing but sad and I treat them with scepticism. ESPECIALLY since I fell in love with Hopoo's projects - it would break my heart and trust completely if they would make RoR2's lore or gameplay go to trashcan. And it's honestly quite easy to break RoR2 to make it easy af and faster - just like they "improved" BL3 for me.
