![]() So, here is my experience with “Tales from the Borderlands” and yes, this article does contain spoilers! Episode 1: A Zer0-sum game Granted, knowing the story of this game is not critical to anything that happens in “Borderlands 3”, but as it is so often the case with those kinds of easter eggs and additional information snippets, it is nice to know them to get a little extra enjoyment out of connecting the dots. So, what changed my opinion? Well, I felt that I cannot cover all of the “Borderlands” games and then simply leave one title out that seems to be canonical, since we meet some of the people from “Tales from the Borderlands” during the story of “Borderlands 3”. ![]() Instead, we get a story in the “Borderlands” universe that features rather “normal” people, and while we get to see some of the named characters from earlier installments, the gameplay boils down to looking around and picking dialog options in the slower parts of the gameplay, while the action scenes are entirely constructed with the usage of Quick-Time-Events and boy, do I hate those QTEs with a passion. The game is very different from what we are used to in the “Borderlands” franchise since the game does not feature any of the game mechanics we know and love from the Looter-Shooter madness. I have a confession to make: Originally, I did not want to cover “Tales from the Borderlands” at all.
