![]() ![]() Unless you outright hate Borderlands’ humor (which some people do), you’ll find something funny to chuckle at in New Tales from the Borderlands. Not all of the jokes land - the subtler ones tended to be what made me laugh the most - but I was never put off from playing because of bad writing. This is still a Borderlands game, even if it trades in shooting for narrative decision-making, so there are a lot of violent and crude gags along the way. Anu, Octavio, and Fran are all relatable in their own ways, which kept me invested … even when they’d drop a clunker of a joke. Still, there are tons of great character and story beats in the last few chapters that more than make up for it - and we get the entire game at once this time around rather than dished out episodically. In typical Telltale fashion, the middle of the story drags as the characters and story spun their wheels in the third of the game’s five chapters. It’s a solid narrative that grapples with sibling relationships, how corporations tend to destroy more than they create, and why people choose the do the right thing. From there, Anu eventually meets up with Octavio and Fran, finds a mysterious crystal with healing properties in a Vault, and tries to change the world for the better and take down Tediore with it. For example, Anu is fired, not demoted, and escapes the Atlas space station after it is attacked by a rival company called Tediore that is also invading Promethea. This isn’t a The Force Awakens situation where the entire plot mirrors that of its predecessor. The story begins in a way that mirrors the original Tales from the Borderlands, with Anu running from the major corporation where she works.
