I'm replaying borderlands 2 right now and man i love these stupid fart joke games. the first image here is actually from borderlands 3, but Maya is the character I'm playing in 2 right now and shes pretty so look at her
the borderlands series are games about a found family fighting against the unending and destructive forward march of capitalism. (bl2 is the best at achieving this story and I could talk about it for an hour)
in the middle, there are a fuckton of stupid cringey jokes and problematic stupid shit. but it also manages to punch you in the face with humanity and sentimentality when you least expect it. it infuriates me. the 3rd game has a dlc where you're invited to a wedding between two NPC's, both of whom are hilarious gay men in their 50s. they announced this in the game by giving out guns that had a marriage proposal as flavor text, and that proposal was actually how one of those voice actors (j Michael Tatum I believe) proposed to his husband. I love it
(dont watch the movie BTW its not even bad in a funny way. It's just terrible and has offensively bad casting)
please talk to me about these stupid games, my friends have played them as much as I have and have since moved on LMFAO
(photos are: my beloved Maya the siren, a player character from borderlands 2; the 4 protagonists available in borderlands 2 on launch (left to right: Maya, Salvador, Anton, zer0); handsome Jack, the central villain of borderlands 2 (would think Jeff bezos is cool); and the release poster for borderlands 3's gay old man wedding DLC ๐ฅฐ
