What game is Burch talking about here?

Edit never mind got it.

The internet seems to be the only place where BL2s story was this polarizing. Everyone I know IRL who played BL2 absolutely loved the humor.

Anthony Burch is probably one of the most awkward people to observe.

Yeah...things are beginning to add up.

I did enjoy Borderlands 2, though, for what it's worth.

playing a game filled with burch's writing is like taking a driving test with the physical embodiment of a particularly insipid and self referential comment tree on a subreddit devoted to socially conscious gaming memes.

I'm starting to think the people who keep saying this just spend too much time on Reddit.

This sounds like what he (and Mikey Neumann from Gearbox) did for the fun webseries, Anthony Saves The World, back in 2011. Best of luck for him.

Truth in that.

Recently, I've seen people describe Life Is Strange as being Tumblr. As someone who doesn't use Tumblr, I don't get the meaning so that description must be for people who engage with that stuff whether they like or dislike it.

I enjoyed the writing in BL2, sad to see him go. Maybe Gearbox can borrow some of the Telltale people for BL3.

 

[matrixman92]

I enjoyed borderlands, but I was not a fan of majority of his writing. Just seemed like internet me after internet meme

Was he the reason for all of the terrible jokes and writing in BL2?

Yes

Good riddance

Isn't she super popular, so much so she got her own DLC.


GAF=/= most people who play video games and like things,

I've met people from all walks of life that dislike her :V
But whatever works. I found her to be less insufferable in the DLC so that's...a plus?
