    My big fear is that whatever comes after Wonderlands has the wrong takeaway from Wonderlands' relative lack of success, because the game itself is a pretty great improvement.

    Lack of success? It sold way better than Take Two was expecting, and there's reportedly a sequel in development.

    Granted we don't know the exact sales figures, and I suspect it didn't sell as well as the higher-profile Borderlands 3. Still, everyone seems to be really happy with how it did.

    Wonderlands is fine at best. I'm surprised by all of the praise.

    Its writing is not actively terrible like BL3 or NTftB, but I haven't been impressed by it.

    Fired up Borderlands 3 with my wife again. Decided to try out some new characters for a change... I have to say that I absolutely fucking hate how the story progresses in this game on your like 10th or so new character. Standing around while they talk really cuts into the enjoyment of the game. Especially since my wife and I only have a very, very limited time to play. I wish I could skip the dialogue so bad. They desperately need something like Diablo 3s Adventure Mode.

    When you suggest that your level and story progress be tied to your account and not your character people on the reddit lose their fucking minds but like it would make everything way faster

    I do not mind starting at level 1 but holy shit I can't watch Claptrap getting stuck in the bridge. Waiting for Ellie to walk to the door... Listening to Lilith talk about our next steps.

    Or fucking any of the scenes with the Influencer twins that I already forgot their name. Just let me press a button and the game thinks those scenes are done... Let me go pew pew things! That's all I'm here for.

    Okay, Torgue's method for getting the party across the ocean is easily one of the funniest things in this series.

    It's even better when you realize they call that zone afterwards the

    It flows a little better if you skip all the side-missions and just barrel through the main story.
