Athena is looking to be the support class, but I can see the dmg builds as well, hard to pick her skills without knowing how the game plays but here goes:

The idea is hold the shield up when shit gets rough(absorbing dmg, healing friends), throw it for insane damage(bounce 4 times), all the while jumping around and smiting bitches for the added fire/shock dmg.


Wilhelm is going to be a beast with his pets, damage EVERYTHING! Can shoot AND full accuracy while sprinting? Yes please!

4 man groups of claptrap is going to be insane(Assuming the skill stacks and it will!)

lol holy shit really? This is the guy that is such a beta that he pretended to become gay because his wife wanted to have sex with other people and he couldn't get any women to sleep with him. The guy who wrote this:In Defense of Arbitrary Diversity | HAWP. The guy that wrote memelands 2. This is what gives you hope? He's a sad shell of a human being that is probably going to kill himself or go transsexual within a few years.

Gearbox is a bad company and none of you should give them money.

Yeah. I made myself a promise after A:CM I will never buy a game where Pitchford somehow benefits financially from ever again.

This guy makes Brad McQuaid look like Ken Levine.

Aside from Pitchford being human garbage, I'm one of those rare people who just plain didn't like BL2 as much as the first. I never even maxed a character in BL2, in BL1 I maxed at least every class once, some more than once when I lost my 360 HD and got the game on PC.

I don't know who any of these people/devs are by name, so find it hard to care about hating or boycotting them. I loved Borderlands 2. I'll probably get this when it hits a Steam sale.

Thats what I'm thinking. There has got to be a new sale soon and I bet BL will be on there

Yeah I didnt either until today and my shitter feed was on hot fire. Then I saw Mario post and its attack of the Beta.

Yeah playing video games is my hobby. Some people act like it is their entire existence. They can be shitty human beings but as long as they're not funding ISIS and only post shitty stuff on twitter that isn't enough to rustle me.

I gave up trying to keep track of who hates who for what reasons on shitter in the gamgergate/anti-gamergate spam. But, why do people hate Pitchford? The last alien game?

Reviews are out, 7-8 out of ten mostly. PUMPED!
What was the overall consensus? A 7-8 doesn't always mean terrible for me because Dynasty Warriors games get far less and I still love the repetitive iterations of those games.

I don't even see the hate for Randy at all - he misinformed for sure, but he wasn't directly involved with A:CM anyhow - he's no doubt seen shit in a bad state that went through touch up and got fixed in the past and assume A:CM was fixable when it wasn't.

What the hell is he supposed to do as the executive for the company? Say "Oh yea, the game is coming out and it's shit"? He's obligated to try to make it sound as good as it can, and he sounded too optimistic but nothing overboard.

I'd love to see more honesty from development execs, but when they're told you'll ship X timeframe at the latest by their partners their hands really get tied I'd imagine.

I cage any of his praise for anything appropriately now, but I don't think he's a shitty person. [And note he's been upfront that this title is a little shorter than he'd like in a few Twitter comments - disappointing that it'll be "short"-ish, but that's a level of honesty most devs don't have - maybe too little too late for some of you, but I appreciate him being honest on it]

7-8 sounds passable to me - I think Hatorade too - reading the first it reads closer to a 8.5-9 (listed as a 7.5) that they're complaining that it doesn't innovate very much and docking 1-1.5 for it. Which I already knew was a given personally.

Yeah just read the IGN review. Sounds exactly like the game I was hoping it to be.

I see. Gaming drama aside, I loved and sunk an embarrassing amount of time into Borderlands 2. And if it's the same formula as BL2 I'll probably still buy it, although that won't be for another 6mo-1yr since I'm really backed up on games in my steam library.

Missions are very repetitive is the common complaint.
