Today’s game is Borderlands The Pre Sequel. I had my friend play this with me again and we had a fun time. Though I can’t say we’ll be playing again any time soon. As 1) It’s absolutely miserable to censor the information to protect his privacy 2) He’s under leveled on our save due to losing all his progress to the cloud, so he has to go play a bit by himself to level up. Mostly the issue is 2.

I feel like I’m struggling a lot more with this too. Maybe it’s just too much Halo changing how I play, maybe it’s my fever addled brain, or maybe I’m just getting old when I’m only around 2 decades old.

I just found myself being knocked down a bunch though and having to fight to revive. Part of me wonders if I’m playing the game wrong. It strikes me as a bit RPG-Like, so maybe I need to grind.

I did settle into a steady play style though with this burst shot rifle and my other one being one that shoots electric bolts. It’s been good so far, even if getting downed is semi common. I think maybe i just need practice.

As mentioned my friend needed to level up more. So we didn’t end up playing more than an hour and a half. It was fun though despite the challenge we faced. Once he catches up I’ll definitely be doing this again (despite my complaints about the challenge of censoring them).

    Such a shame, the game is a lot better than I was expecting.

    Honestly, I think the grinder killed the game.

    Also that mission to donate 50 common tier guns was so fucking annoying.

    Other than that, the O2 system was awesome. I loved incorporating slamming attacks into my Boomicorn claptrap/Jack builds.

    Also… You’ve got a good looking mainframe
