    Glad you enjoyed the games, I suppose. But I never really cared for the Borderlands games and reading how Pitchford is behaving makes me not want to even try the games.

    I like first person shooters, the original counter strike is one of my roots. I also have many fond memories of Diablo 2 and LAN parties. Borderlands 1 was a taste of what could be and was VERY exciting, as it was trying to combine two things I loved in games and really wanted (and still do). Unfortunately, Pitchford has been driving it into the ground ever since BL1, and wasting his position at the helm. Godawful behavior aside, it’s time for him to move aside for somebody with more talent for game development or something.

    If you don’t mind me asking, why didn’t you ever care for the borderlands games? Just for frame of perspective, I want/like to understand what people like and don’t like and why.

      He’s looking like the Anti-Gaben Newell in that picture there.

        I wasn’t too keen on that $70 basic version price tag in the first place, so thanks Randy. Can’t wait for it to be $39.99

          Yeah, learn to tie them if you’re going to make it part of your personality.

          Finally, someone agrees with me on the fucking bow tie thing.

          Love the tie. Wear the tie. Talk about the tie. If you can’t tie the tie but you do the first 3, I can’t respect you.

            Their games are so bad now that it would be better to not play them.

              Same, got 1&2 on a humble bundle. I remember one running great, and 2 bearable on a 1gb netbook att. Cell shaded games shouldn’t be this resource intensive!

                First game was just Diablo 2 but FPS with guns. But I can totally respect anyone that didn’t jive with that. The humor was very hit and miss and definitely made but a group of people who insisted they were hilarious.

                  Why stop there? Pretty sure BL3 was free at some point recently.

                    He wasn’t the only founder and Embracer bought them in 2021. Later TakeTwo acquired the studio when Embracer had to restructure. They operate under 2k now so he can most surely be fired.

                    Also probably why he is even more of a cocky cunt nowadays. He already cashed out.

                    I worked for Take-Two. The bankers that run that company absolutely see the world the way Randy does. Fuck’em.

                          I don’t know about you but I feel like telling slaneesh she’s wrong is the last thing you would do.
