![]() Whatever happens at the end of the story it's probably gonna end with a trailer or title card for Borderlands 4. I'm 70% sure this game is just a really fancy trailer or lead-in to the next numbered Borderlands game. One of the siblings is a Tediore scientist, which doesn't have the "everyman" feel. She could have been far more compelling as a character if she had simply been a waitress trying to keep her family business afloat, put at odds against Tediore when it's discovered there's a Vault beneath her store. I mean, the character who feels like she should be the most "every day" pilots a floating wheelchair of death, and her story revolves around some kind of petty feud? Yes, Zer0s voice in episode 5 is a distracting and odd change, but despite this, you still get to see Zer0 acting just as cool as he always does. He's a cybernetic ninja with the ability to turn invisible, create a holographic duplicate of. Maybe I'm jumping the gun, but the new characters seem far less like "normal people" than Rhys or Fiona (and their supporting cast). Zero might just be the coolest character the Borderlands series has ever produced, bar none. You see Fiona become a badass over the course of the game, but Rhys mainly sticks to his strengths and still comes out ahead. To me, part of the magic of the first Tales story is how being a Vault Hunter doesn't actually mean you're some kind of bona-fide badass. I think what bugs me the most is how in interviews and stuff they're touting their cast as "normal people in the Borderlands universe, not heroes or Vault Hunters," as if that's not exactly what Rhys and Fiona were.
