It may just be flavor dialogue, but I just love the fact that Rhys used to treat his employees to theme park trips. The man's definitely Handsome Jack's good counterpart.
Honestly out of all the corporate executives we’ve seen on this franchise he seems to treat his employees the best. I mean me torque was completely okay with his employees starving to death during his tournament
@@GodlyPotat-ql9ds It's way more than that, there are many similarities between Jack and Rhys when you think about it : they both used to be Hyperion nobodies with big ambitions, they both had an asshat of a boss that ended up getting murdered, they both needed help to succeed (the Pre-Sequel Vault Hunters for Jack, Loader Bot, Vaughn, Sasha and Fiona for Rhys), they both became Vault Hunters, they both became CEOs of a successful company through their own efforts, they both have a silly, quirky side to their personnality, they both had a former Vault Hunter as their personal bodyguard (Wilhelm for Jack, Zer0 for Rhys)... The list is pretty long ! In the end, the major difference between them is that Rhys is a good man at heart while Jack was a selfish, sociopathic madman.
Exactly I agree. Rhys is possibly the only good character out of them game. Along with Hammerlock, Wainwright, Tina, and Typhon. The others are okay. As for Ava she's just really hard to like
Y'know, I can totally imagine how corporate meetings would unfold for Hyperion and Atlas... HYPERION : - Handsome Jack : "Okay, kiddoes ! Before we start, I'm just gonna let y'all know that I've already planned this whole thing out. But since this is mandatory corporate stuff, we still gotta sit through this bullshit ! So... Anyway. Anyone disagreeing with me is free to speak their mind ! It'll just make it easier to weed out the unworthy..." ATLAS: - High-ranking Employee #1 : "Hey... Any of you seen the boss ? He's late..." - High-ranking Employee #2 : "Well, I saw him on my way in but I don't know what he's up to" *Room doors open, Rhys steps in carrying a pile of pizza boxes on each hand while out of breath* - Rhys : "Uhh.. Huhhh... Sorry I kept you waiting folks ! The... *Hufff* The delivery guy didn't want to take the elevator so I had to grab the order by myself and... *Wheeze*... And deliver it myself !" - High-ranking Employee : "Mr. Strongfork, Sir... You don't have to apologize, you're the CEO of this company !" - Rhys : "I know... *Wheeze*... I know I am ! But still... It's common courtesy, y'know ? Anyway... We can't start this business meeting on an empty stomach, can we ? I've got Pepperoni pizzas... Cheese pizzas... Oh, anyone got a specific diet, by the way ?" - Random High-ranking Employee : "Well, I'm a vegetarian..." - Rhys : "Oh, good ! I knew ordering a couple veggie pizzas was a good move ! Anyway... Sorry I kept you waiting. Everyone grab a slice, then we can get this meeting started !"
@@thotspecialforces1341 Claptrap’s voice just does not sound right. Like, the current VA definitely is doing Claptrap right, but it doesn’t sound right.
Honestly he does sound like clap trap when you think about how long he's been around and all the abuse (physically from the elements as well aside from the literal and mental abuse), It bugged me at first until I realized this and noticed his personality still is the same annoying yet loveable little shit I've become fond of over the years. Yeah Borderlands 3 really did great with the voice acting in general.
Maya: "You can't trust a man with a mustache. That's just science." Me: *looks at Zane's mustache* ...though to be fair, you probably can't trust Zane. Much.
I can't help but think of Rhys flailing his arms (or his whole body, why not) like an inflatable man as he tries to escape from Katagawa when he sneaks inside his office.
I wonder what Rhy’s Atlas company policy’s are? Specifically with “workplace relationships”, given the amount fans I’ve noticed via Pinterest are already shipping Lorelei and Zer0?
I like how we hear Zer0 having a crush on Lorelei but then hear that Lorelei wants to make a sex change once the Maliwan invasion is over. Unless he goes both ways, RIP Zer0
Andreas Rask who knows Lorelei might hold off until she either feels like she might be leading him on or if they actually do end up together (which I’m sure shippers would just squee over) she’ll tell him to see his reaction?
I'm surprised Lillith or Maya chose his moustache as the main reason not to trust him entirely and not the fact he used to be with Hyperion. Then again, the whole story of Borderlands 3 suprsied me. And not in a good way
Best character in the franchise easily, I miss Troy Baker, but the new guy isn’t bad either, and I really like where he took Rhy’s story, just wish Fiona and Sasha were in the game
I heard Troy Baker is kind of a messed up guy. Apparently he Went out of his way to insult a critic that didn’t like The Last of Us 2. It’s all well and good to like or dislike a game, but you need to respect other people’s opinions and tastes.
I like Vaughn he's a super cool dude. But I would really appreciate if he wore some pants. Nonetheless, he's gotta have some real balls to walk around Pandora like that so mad props
I wish we could see what the Zanara pleasure yacht looks like from the inside, maybe a fast travel point with side quest or something, Katagawa is stupid but Rhys went a little to far by shooting the Zanara :((
I'm gonna be for real. I've only played a portion of Borderlands the Pre-sequel. But I've never played Borderlands 1, 2 o got even Tales From The Borderlands. So I had no idea who Rhys was.
@@BurningAzure It's been like 3 years and he's rich. I'd imagine getting a new prosthetic is like getting a new car but even easier since the new u stations are canon.
Honestly the new voice actor is not as good as the one in TftB but he's still pretty good. If people find he's not as funny as before it's most likely a plot issue.
