Is Borderland's 4 better than Borderlands 3?

Borderland's 4 is only the latest in the series with high -octane shooting, humor outside the wall and circumstances that exist anywhere else. It has been discussed whether all changes and comments from the Creators about Borderland's 4 are really the next step in the Borderland series.

Forces the story you? Is the game fun? Is humor funny? Should you just play Borderlands 3 again? All questions to ask, especially before you dive into the new game wholeheartedly. There are many aspects to keep in mind, but there is an overwhelming answer, although the game is a mixed bag of classic features and new features.

Environment

Winner: Borderlands 3

Borderland's 4 takes you to the planet Kairos and releases you in a world that is much more open than any of the previous games. But it feels more in its place than anything. There are a lot of things to see and interact with, and more often than not, you will not go for five minutes without finding anything interesting.

But therein lies the problem. It does not often feel like a living world. It feels more like a series of assignments and side assignments on a conveyor belt than a prison plane that you just crashed on. It wants to approach the long gray level for if you are the right person at the right time, but it comes over more like just playing.

Humor

Winner: Borderlands 4

The Borderland series has always been at the forefront of the humorous side of FPS games and RPG. Borderland's 3 saw that some players want the creators to tone it back a bit, and they have quite well delivered in Borderland's 4.

There is still plenty of jokes, but they feel more embraced. There is a much narrower margin between the number of jokes made and how many countries, which is nice to see, and most people just point out the stability in Borderland's world more than anything, which makes sense.

Game play

Winner: Borderlands 4

Borderland's 4's game feels like the next logical conclusion for the series. The open world is nice and full of some features that make it fun and easier to explore than in previous games.

A driving force for simpler tie bosses and more rare swaps make it actually look for a fun weapon more exciting as well. There is some inflating, as with all open world RPG, and sometimes the driving force against newer gaming ideals feels more forced in the package that is Borderland's world as a whole, but it does not work more often than it does not.

Plot

Winner: Borderlands 3

It's a mixed bag, not a police officer. Borderland's 4 takes a little more serious tone in its overall plot, much like Borderland's 2 did with a handsome Jack.

The time holder is more like a run-of-the-mill manager than the laughing evil narcissist who was a handsome Jack. A prison plane that is run, the order -driven overlord is on par with COV of Borderland 3. Take what you want. Some fans will like the more serious “Save the World” tone, while others will quickly get bored by the classic trop that will be portrayed in Borderlands without the charisma following up.

Character

Winner: Borderlands 4

Signs are where the Borderland series stands out, and Borderland's 4 is no exception. NPCs are strange and interesting, enemies are laughingly evil, and this time the vault hunters are well thought out in their reasoning to explore the galaxy.

There has been extra care to bind previous characters and plots in the characters in this game, which makes it feel more like a continuation of history (obviously) than just a modernization of Borderland's Galaxy. Each new character you meet has the opportunity to attract and confuse you, probably both.

Visual

Winner: Borderlands 3

Borderlands have been trend-sets since the last minute change in art style before the first game came out. The unique hand -drawn style has been drawing fans, artists and cosplayers for several years now. Borderland 4 still has this. That's true. But more of a focus has been placed on higher quality graphics than anything.

We have been lucky to avoid motion and lens flare seen in other titles, but the rebuilding of graphics feels more like being caved to group pressure by other triple-A titles than anything. Something that causes enemies and important objects to blend into the highly rendered surroundings and feel that they appear less. It is still a beauty to look at, but loses some of its heart.

Playback value

Winner: Borderlands 4

Extra caution has been taken to enable playback value in Borderland 4. Not only can you play the game with one of the four vault hunters, thus, you will see them interact in cutcenes now, which is a fun add.

There are plenty of assignments and places to explore, certainly some that you first missed. In addition, the above -mentioned loot male is more difficult now, and you can now also skip parts of the campaign after hitting the game for the first time. This way you can jump into the grinding with your second, third and fourth characters without sloganing through Intros.

Conclusion

Winner: Borderlands 4

Borderland 4 is a total improvement from Borderland's 3. It does not really hit the high note that was Borderland's 2, but it is not the worst game in the series either.

It adds enough improvements to keep things interesting and at the same time keeping faith in what Borderland is. Although it makes it clumsy sometimes, but it only leaves room for improvement for (maybe) a second trilogy. It is a definite game for all the fan of the bigger borderland story or someone looking for next time kills FPS/RPG.
