Description
Fifteen hours in, I realize that Im playing Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel as a flying Ghostbuster Captain America. My character class, Gladiator, grips a round shield in her left hand when her class ability is triggered, absorbing or reflecting damage before hurling the shield like a boomerang-frisbee. In my right hand is my favorite weapon, Miss Moxxis Vibra-Pulse, a laser gun that spits a wavy line of volts like Egons proton pack. And the shock damage it deals cascades like Diablos chain lightning spell, arcing between enemies in reach. As Im electrocuting and shield-tossing, Im floating through the air, kept aloft by the low gravity of Elpis, the Pre-Sequels lunar landscape.
Borderlands is best when its irreverence is reflected in its combat, when its layering the insanity of its characters atop weird weapons and enemies.
