Borderlands 3 - (PC)

Is she not going to be a playable character? That would be good. Still I'll take her inclusion as another npc. She was definitely the highlight of the campaign and her dlc was probably my favourite.

I don't think she's going to be playable from what I've read so far. The only confirmed vault hunters are Zane (bit like Zero), Amara (Siren), FI4k (Beastmaster), Moze (Soldier).

The game is set several years after B2 so I expect Tiny Tina to be some psycopathic stroppy teenager!

That's what some of the fans wanted and then the rumors started, but I don't think she was ever intended to be a playable character. I don't think they'd put her with Brick and Mordecai in the trailer if she was playable. I'm willing to bet she'll be an important NPC.

I'm looking forward to this! Chat is full of !echocast and !shift spam which is making me paranoid that I'm missing out on something

EDIT: I'm going to see if I can set off a !twitchlootB3 spam........

I was having to watch Twitch at 360p to actually get it to stop hitching / pausing.

Absolutely fine at 1080p on Youtube though.

I'm doing it on twitch to get the loot via the method in my previous post.

Well, that looks even better than I expected. I think that BL3 is certainly going to be the definitive BL experience.

I don't think I will start with either of the two classes shown. Hopefully one of the others will more suit my playstyle.

Very impressive. Really looking forward to it. Watching some of the streamers now and it is ticking all the boxes. More of the same but bigger and badder! It was a nice touch to bring the developers onto the stage.

Only criticism and I'm being really really picky here is that some of the voice acting is a bit iffy. The majority is on point from what I've seen so far, good and funny but Zane sounds like someone non-Irish putting on an Irish accent. Just sounds odd although it could be deliberate. The same can be said of what I think is a fake cockney accent on Lorelei one of the NPCs. Just seems out of place and reading from a script without expression. (although I've not heard the phrase w***muffin before!) I sound like a luvvy! lol

That aside, it's everything I want. It looks great. Roll on Sep 13th!!!
