Told through a series of prolonged flashbacks and casting Borderlands 2 villain Handsome Jack as a central anti-hero of sorts rather than a straightforward antagonist, The Pre-Sequel's plot and characters certainly feel much fresher than the morally linear escapades of the first two games.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel doesn't deviate very far from the previous incarnations in the franchise, but a solid focus on interesting characters, often hilarious writing and the evergreen engagement that the series' loot and shoot gameplay provides, proves enough to tide fans over until a truly evolutionary Borderlands successor arrives.Īs its title suggests, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is set both before and after the events lain out by the previous two titles in the series. Since the debut of the original Borderlands back in the mists of 2009, Gearbox's brash shooter series has proven that it's possible to combine Diablo-style action RPG mechanics and FPS-style gameplay with admirable flourish.
