Remove INdustry. This isn't really an industry issue/topic. It's specific to the game. Add PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 since the game is available on those platforms.

DeadSpaced4868d ago (Edited 4868d ago )

I personally loved her character.

PS3Freak4868d ago

One dude said that, but everyone disagreed.

So no, she's not considered racist.

ironfist924868d ago

Well that was a quick end of discussion.

Who doesnt love Tiny Tina?

Mounce4867d ago

I'd totally tap Bigger-Tina....aka when she gets older.

:3

Sp1d3ynut4868d ago

She's easily my favorite new character in any new IP from the last several years. I just reached lvl 50 with my 3rd character, and am mid-way on my 6th playthrough. I always look forward to the getting to Tundra Express for the first time, because she always makes me laugh. :D

Sp1d3ynut4867d ago

5 disagrees from losers who need to get a life.

MacDonagh4868d ago

Did Tiny Tim wear a KKK hood and drop N-Bombs? Never played the game tbh, but if she's only using slang that is now common in modern-day culture; it's not racist.

Hell, even I use the word badonkadonk sometimes.

I am not ashamed. Shame is for the weak.

KwietStorm_BLM4868d ago

Tiny Tina being racist never even crossed my mind, but your logic/argument is completely wrong.

MacDonagh4868d ago

In what way? Language is constantly evolving and new words are made everyday and it doesn't belong to any particular race. The problem that people seem to have these days are things that don't agree with their worldview and they bitch about it as if they are going to change it. I'm sure many impressionable 13 year olds use the terms that Tiny Tina uses everyday like "krunk" or "badonkadonk" or "gazongas".

People force their worldview on others because they are uncomfortable with anything that disagrees with their own bias.

I Sure Hope The Next Borderlands Is A Lot Like Borderlands 2

Ahmad from eXputer: "Borderlands 2's unrivaled storytelling is something that has to lean into the core elements of the next iteration in the Borderlands series."

What? You didn't love the cringe writing that 3 had?

pwnmaster3000657d ago

Playing it now and it’s not so bad, but I’ve just started so maybe it will get worse

DustMan656d ago

It's not bad. It's just hard to top Handsome Jack as an antagonist. I really enjoyed 3. It has the best gameplay of the entire series, and it holds the same vibe. Tiny Tina's Wonderland was a huge disappointment to me.

Demetrius656d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot657d ago

I'm curious how they are going to do the Siren since they've kind of wrote themselves into a corner regarding the lore.

gold_drake657d ago

well, im sure the last eridium slab is the answer to that. either mystery or villain

-Foxtrot657d ago

I meant more in terms of how they established only 6 Sirens can exist in the entire Universe...which was kind of silly to me as they seem to all end up on Pandora, and the Universe is a pretty big place.

Then there's now the fact, since Borderlands 3 retconed it, when a Siren dies she can transfer her power to the next Siren, they don't have to be born with it. This also means there's only 6 Siren powers which will end up being recycled as the franchise goes on.

Phasewalk (Lilith)
Phaselock (Maya / Ava)
Phasetrance (Amara)
Phaseshift (Angel / Tannis)
Phaseleech (Tyreen)

So there's only one power unaccounted for and I'm guessing it belonged to Commandant Steele. There was Queen Dido but she died and someone else like Amara, Maya or Angel could have gotten their powers so really it only gives them one more Siren before they need to start rethinking things going forward.

Either we get Phaseleech next or whatever power Commandant Steele had (kind of odd she never used it in her boss fight but you know).

Terry_B657d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake657d ago

it will probably be alot like wonderlands, since that is the last borderlands game

but we'll see soon

Terry_B657d ago

Most people do. But the people that create the games don't seem to understand that.

I bet it will be even worse than BL3 when it comes to story and character designs.

RaidenBlack657d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal656d ago

I would love a new game in the series, or a remake/remaster of the first three games.

RaidenBlack656d ago

I'd want them to do the 4th part and just end the story of Baker Company.
