Nothing personal. Just when we played with 4 people everyone was flying thru the game. We like to search everywhere, grab everything, listen to everything the NPCs have to say, etc. We play in slowmo copmared to y'all. It's difficult to do that with a bunch of guys that have already played and are way higher levels than us and just wreck everything in site. Where's the fun in that?

The whole fun in Borderlands is looting, getting stuff, trading stuff, selling stuff and following along with the goofiness of the story. We played 20 minutes with Lew and Gardoki and I was totally lost

I'll agree with that. I remember my first playthough when we first reached Sanctuary, and I was taking in the sites when the rest of my party was grabbing every quest they could and I missed a ton of dialogue. I honestly had no idea that Scooter made that first attempt to get Sanctuary off the ground. I was so lost.

But hey if you are ok with playing for 5mins the sitting still for 10 mins on and off then ok. Id feel terrible for anyone who played with Mj and I. Truthfully it's slow....painfully slow.


Pretty much this. I hate being rushed thru a game

Hey new area....let's loot and gamble for an hour I think we stood at those slot machines for a good half hour.

It was always a chore dragging a party member away from the slots. I'd eventually start trolling them and grabbing their loot before they could.

Not us. We were swapping back and forth just having a blast. We kept telling ourselves we could stop wheneve we wanted......

Well now that we've effectively hijacked and derailed this thread.....

You played with me for two minutes...Hardly enough time to assess how I borderlands.

And I have hundreds of golden keys that could net some nice gear for you guys.

I have one

How do you get so many? I read online about some codes or glitches or something? IDK. Would it take away from the fun with OP weapons or add to it?

There's a website that has a log of all the keys issued for each platform. I just ran through all of the pc ones.

Eta: you could do the same

I'm still trying to sort out exactly what happened in Bioshock Infinite, but it bothered me.

The entirety of The Walking Dead by Telltale.

A good portion of Lost Odyssey as well, namely the short stories you unlock, or when he finds his long lost daughter as an old, sick woman, and goes to her funeral.

OG Max Payne where he's walking thru the dream I think with the blood everywhere and baby crying in the background....nope, nope, nope. That was when I was 20. Now that I have kids? No way I could play that level

Jeez. Just reading that makes me cringe. I'm a pathetic mess when it comes to my boy. The first time he got sick, he'd wake up with his eyes all gunked over, and he'd do this really sad scared cry. Friggin hated it.

You think that's bad? Have a little girl and let the same exact stuff happen to her

The scene when Kerrigan breaks Jim Raynor out of the prison ship is hard to watch. (Heart of the Swarm)
