Does Borderlands 3 solve the problem with really big empty maps that require you to have a vehicle to traverse? I kept losing my vehicle in those and had to figure out where the closest Catch a Ride was and it kiiiillled me inside every time

You can fast travel from anywhere now, so if you need a new car you just teleport back to a fast travel near a catch-a-ride.
The Jacob's planet is probably the worst planet because the entire thing is such a pain in the ass to traverse. But overall the game does better than the previous games in letting you fast travel.

Okay, just started, but I am enjoying 3 way more than 2. Doing the SNES clear on logs is great
Well not sure if the events still on but apparently theres a glitch where if you dont collect any of the rewards then pick them out of order you can simply exit the pause menu anf go back in and it will reset.
I managed to do this and got quite a selection of Wedding invitations now with good annointments.
Polyaimorus is trash so I didnt bother
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.
Probably the only cutscene where the Vault Hunters are a non-presence works is the Twins going after Lilith and that's because your direct route to her just got blocked, forcing you to run around the whole building to get to her, giving the cutscene plenty of time to happen.

If they had done that once, it would have been much more effective

One of the many things in this game that needed another pass, was pacing.

I picked this up because I finally got a pc capable of running it and not falling over dead (still crashed and bluescreened a lot until I figured out the latest geforce driver needed a hotfix)
I started as Zane and swapped over to Amara, did the Handsome Jackpot DLC the moment I hit 14 then finished the main story and holy shit it was so bad! And boring!
At least Guns Love and Tentacles and Bounty of Blood are decent DLC, can't speak for any of the other stuff because I didn't touch it before I put the game back down
The ending having
Lilith's sacrifice then cutting immediately into THIS GIRL IS ON FIRE after Ava got Scrappy Doo'd into a plot device absolutely sucked and the tonal whiplash made me burst out cringe laughing
Tannis being a siren made absolutely no sense
There was zero pacing, the B team got shoehorned in halfway through the story and the writing was neither good nor funny, two things I had come to expect from playing BL2
Basically if they added sliding and mantling to BL2 that would be my definitive version of a Borderlands video game
Beasteh on

I didn't think Ava was that bad. And nothing in the game was as awful as 2 for me, and in fact improved on its writing in myriad ways.
I think everyone kind of forgot that Lilith is a bad leader, heading into BL3. She has to be the leader (because reasons?), but Lilith is perpetually in over her head and makes bad or no decisions all the time.
I didn't think Ava was that bad. And nothing in the game was as awful as 2 for me, and in fact improved on its writing in myriad ways.
The thing with Ava is that they made a decent mission of character building for her a side-mission people are likely gonna pass over so they're stuck with what the main story gives you which doesn't make her look great. Admittedly, it still doesn't even with the side-mission but even more so without the side-mission.
Making her presence at the end of the first Vault's opening a part of why Maya died and her subsequent reactions to it which drag out way too long (not being addressed/told to knock it off until the final chapters) is pretty bad. Making her take back Maya's powers with just a simple poking of Troy's corpse was worse as it just made her getting said powers less important then it should have been. Then being told by Lilith at the end that her "run to the fire" line was correct and that she gets Sanctuary over pretty much everyone else was just plain stupid. They really were hoping to have another Tiny Tina in terms of breakout character but Tina never overstayed her welcome in the story and when a VH she cared about died, how she handled it was written much better.
I didn’t dislike Ava or the story on my first play through. The pissed off teen and unfunny jokes get real old after you go through it more than once. I’m also not attached to Maya in any way so that probably helps.
One thing I found is that, if you're playing this off an SSD, it's faster to trigger the "Talk to..." objective, quit back to the Main Menu then select Continue. Puts you back in after all the mandatory yammering has been done and in less time than it would have taken otherwise. It made my True Vault Hunter playthrough much more bearable.

Everything to do with the writing and plot of Borderlands 3 is completely atrocious. I would argue BL2 had redeeming qualities: BL3 literally has none. Going through the plot of this game ever again ensures I will never ever touch it as a new character.
It’s atrocious and I hated every minute of having to engage in the story. If I hadn’t been having a good time shooting things with my partner I couldn’t have made it through.
The DLC has been fantastic though. Love, Guns and Tentacles was terrific and I can actually remember lines from it! I am glad I persevered through to the DLC.

Also they really need to get past the whole 'silent protagonist/generic NPC response' thing. TPS is the only one that didn't, and it was great!
Theres hints they wanted to but had to ditch it with 80 percent of the story

Instead, like an idiot I just started a Moze.
She's fun.
The stupid way they locked Artifcats and class mods really hurts starting a new character imo.
I mean, they at least start you at the planet you unlock mods, but you ain't wrong

Hahaha yeah there's no waiting to shoot things. Just teleport somewhere and pew pew and grab the loot. It's so satisfying!
