Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

Actually, the antagonist of this game is supposed to be female. Since we're working with Handsome Jack, it could be Angel.

hrm. I hope the antagonist is Tannis.
New might be fun. or, Helena got killed offscreen by Jack. so... maybe showing how exactly she provoked him. Although, that was seemingly random, and had nothing to do with the moon.


"Between the events of Borderlands and Borderlands 2, Handsome Jack steals the Vault key from Tannis by torturing her "ceiling chairs", including one she had developed feelings for, intending to charge it with Eridium to open another Vault containing an ancient Warrior. Roland contacts Tannis, inviting her to move to Sanctuary. She accepts out of revenge for what Hyperion did to the chairs. "

hrmm. it could be Tannis. And that might be amazing.

Love Tannis, she is my second favorite borderlands character, but no one beats Scooter for pure crazy awesome, his side missions had me rolling more then anyone.

Will buy it simply for Burch's writing.

This, and as soon as they said you were working for Handsome Jack I was already sold.

Eh? I just remember him talking about HAVING Butt Stallion, not anything about it's creation or acquisition...

Right - and it's early in the game, so it's not impossible you're retrieving it from the moon as part of this! You know, delivery time from the moon and everything if the Presequel is only a little before BL2... Don't kill my hopes and dreams!

Always loved the Borderlands series. Hope this one is just as good

I don't see how Angel could be the antagonist. She is, at best, subtly working against him up until the point where she sees a chance to be set free. She's never really directly opposing him until right before you get the chance to 'save' her. Tannis or Moxxie being the antagonist would be fitting and pretty damn clever.

I still think the story of BL2 is fucking awful compared to the original.

Hm I really liked the storyline in BL2. I don't even remember BL1's.

Could see the antagonists being the original cast. Didn't Jack think Lilith was dead before she revealed she was Firehawk? They also got their asses handed to them by Wilhelm so it would make sense for them to show that

BL1 story was almost non existent wasn't it? It wasn't very story driven at all from what I remember.

Also the more I think about it, the more I hate the O2 mechanic. I hate count down timers in games.

I'm sure it will be easily refillable if not as easy as shields currently are. Would lime to see more before I judge because Wilhelm and claptrap are fucking robots that don't need to breath.

So far they've only mentioned O2 in regards to jumping and such, could be assumed you have infinite to breathe just need the extra for the extra uses.

Note: In the one video, Wilhelm only looked partially robotic to me.
