Wonderlands | Brutally Honest Review 

This game was bad in both writing and gameplay just boring. 100% the game and still nothing to do and nothing to be excited about. The liberal gender bs is annoying and the ugly character creation and characters are hard to ignore. I honestly can’t believe that I wasted money doing the $80 pre-order I have extreme buyers remorse over this…

You just want to lock you FPS as the refresh rate of your monitor. So if youre running a 60 hz cap at 60 fps. if youre running a 144 hz then cap your fps at 144. You should do this for every game

Thanks for your expert opinion on the game k6!

@@KingNOOB-kj7vz I strongly disagree with you. There is so much to find and achieve in this game, like the lucky dice and poetry pages. This game has some of the best story writing in the entire series, Tina being hilarious as usual, along with newcomers to the series Valentine and Frette being hilarious and making sense in the Borderlands universe.

No offense k6 but your insane if you think the chaos thing is better then bl3's mayhem modes. It's easily like 8+ hours to hit chaos 50 if you complete each run in 10 minutes or more, not including farming gear to deal with the scaling and breaks/sleeping irl Edit: im sorry for being rude k6 Also, I quickly just loaded up the game and realized it's chaos 100 now not 50... so now it's 16+ hours if you complete each run in 10+ minutes...

very true bro. Nobody was prepared for the amount of glory that game would bring and the expectations it would set for the series for the rest of time basically. No matter what, will always be my favorite video game series, good or bad

Everyone says that borderlands 2 is the best but mechanically I can’t play it again

@@smoker4188 I'm still playing it in a off-and-on trendy fashion to this day

Normal mode is still fun, but having to replay the story again is super meh to me.

@@Ki11ersix I literally cannot play the game again because of the quality of life changes in 3 and tiny Tina’s the movement feels so sticky and slow

I bet it's planned to keep legendaries and named drops harder to come by either through gameplay or trading. Atleast for the month of release since that's when there's the most players

Yes.

4 player split-screen couch co-op as well as 4 player online multiplayer.

@@benbuzzell7803 Only 2 player split-screen on PS4 and Xbox One.

Even still some of them appear in Chaos Chamber and the game is amazing

Seems like they're trying to force you into chaos dungeons by the sound of it. Not sure how I feel about this tbh. Not being able to target a specific boss loot table could become very frustrating in a game with almost limitless loot variations.

@@Alacod19 I’ll hold off any strong opinions until I get the actual game, but I’m afraid it’ll end up being like farming for legendaries in Digistruct Peak. That would be awful.

I guess we'll see just how much of an issue it is when the game goes out. I kind of like the idea of getting named enemies to spawn specifically in Chaos Chambers, since that is supposed to be the "endgame" from the sounds of it, and that is where a lot of farming happens.

If everyone bitches they will change it so bitch about it to them so we can get what we want

Great comment👍

I cant understand how they still dont get it right with dedicated loot drops and easier respawning (without leaving and reentering, which is especially annoying in MP) ...

@@Lotuswalker Probably didn't see the need to focus on it so heavily with targeted loot in the endgame

They’ve done this on purpose since presequel I feel like just so they can fix it in a patch and be like hey we updated the game be happy with that much 😅

@@canontheory a part of community outrage is planned when handling situations like this for this very reason. Its been a thing for many many years in the AAA gaming market.

Yeah same, it really annoyed me watching cutscenes that could be stopped easily by a vault hunter, let alone 4 of them. Or fuckin 6 in bl2's case lol

@@AmaryIIion see in some cases I understand why the vault hunter in 2 didn't react, like Roland being shot, it was unexpected and sudden, Jack was thought of like a egotistical maniac but no one excepted him to literally just murder a main character, and then capture Lilith on the spot and she clearly reacted slower then Jack did But in Three we see Maya get beat by a what isn't a twitch streamer whos very hungy when Maya y'know 1v1d the warrior, a being made to 1v1 a fucking god like entity known as the destroyer, and in that room we saw her not use her power or have the vault hunter ready hell even Ava had a GUN like Canonical 6 PEOPLE are ready to merc 2 people on site, story should've ended in the vault of the rampager

@@THERATSANDTHERATS yeah that and the moment lost her power, that garage door cannot stop a 15 foot tall robot and a siren. Not to mention they had a bandit technical next to them as well.. They could have gotten through that door and done something, story could have ended there as well lol

@@AmaryIIion honestly considered how Powerful Lilith is supposed to be she literally should have just like obliterated the twins as soon as they showed up, at that time they didn't have the power to warp in or anything and Lilith was able to teleport a MASSIVE piece of land in 2 and then in 2 blew it the fuck up with nothing but some purple rocks and her mind essentially, two edgy teens shouldn't have been a problem

Wait, Maya is dead?

Crazy right!!!

Lets not forget that demo was made in early development of the game, many changes may have been made and hopefully many bugs and issues fixed right after releasing the demo. I'm sure they already found many of these issues and fixed many of them, but even if not they will fix them as soon as possible

@@baileynightshade617 He played the official version. Right at the beginning he says that he just finished his first playtrough of the story. 0:07

@@RemingtonSteel the version he played was an early release demo, a full replica of the actual game. However changes can be made to both as the devs see fit. The one he played on was available while the game was still in development if I recall correctly, and might be behind on updates. Reguardless I'm not saying major things are gonna be different im just meaning minor bug fixes etc. They used this early version as a test to see what needed fixed for the full game right before release and hopefully fixed many problems.

@@baileynightshade617 K6 said in his Stream today that he had the official release for a week now. So has Moxsy. He has a few max level characters. Moxsy released a video today ranking the characters He has played and mentioned he played them on the official version. But either way. Can't wait to play it. Lol

I hope so, farming is absolutely one of my favorite things to do! The thrill of the hunt for legendaries, especially knowing that Legendaries feel like legendaries again in Wonderlands.

@@Vrieskeh I think once you kill a named enemy they can show up in the chaos dungeon. I'm sure the idea is to have us playing chaos dungeons for drops instead of farming a single boss on repeat

@@benschaly imo that's great. Farming the same boss over and over for a drop is boring. I rather run around killing stuff and getting drops that way. Idc if they add target farming as long as chaos dungeons also have the bosses. This may be the best borderlands game can't wait to play it.

@@XboxBestBox Same, I get bored of farming bossed for a specific drop over and over. I'm so pumped for tomorrow!

@@Vrieskeh Legendaries always felt like legendaries. Just because they drop frequently, doesn't mean you're getting anything worth a damn. Btw. Every looter game I have EVER played, I have had ATROCIOUS luck with getting the best gear. From Destiny, to Division, to Outriders, to Borderlands. I loved that BL3 threw legendaries at me, even if it wasn't stuff I wanted. It was a nice change of pace. 🤣

Meh. At this point, everyone claims they are "different" because they are being their "brutally honest self". So, everyone is just being honest in these videos now. That's good.

Eh ... Joltz Is more Real,.go on his Channel And check his rating od things

@@7kingly241 more critical =/= more "real"

@@7gamex If thats true. Why have I got so much from this video and so little from every other 'play through video' on TTW?

@@simonchristie5496 No idea, don't care. Was more talking about streamers that I watch. I find it hilarious when so many streamers have people in chat saying "oh yeah, this streamer doesn't hold back, they say what's on their mind". So either I just happen to find the streamers who are all like that, or most streamers don't hold back what they think. As for YT videos, who the fuck knows? I'm not going around finding every video I can.

Sad not a single content creator has even mentioned D&D. That's the whole story behind this game.

@@theadventuresguild6514 that's what I'm saying. When I saw the character sheet in game, I got so excited

@@theadventuresguild6514 gameranx did

It's not that good. Writing is total shit and very annoying. Gameplay is ok but as soon as Tiny Tina chimes in, it's like nails on a chalk build.

@@jandro8370 Writing is phenomenal and leagues better than BL3. If you don't like Tina then kindly avoid the game.

could you itterate abit on what things?

@@ThePolarpop well the hybrid guns from BL1 were really cool and difficult to get as well as the legendary eridian guns, BL1 pearlescents which BL2 had pearls too but were pretty easy to get compared to BL1 but it had all the other cool rarity’s like seraphs, and effervescents to farm at endgame, BL2 Type raid bosses with like 1-2 in each dlc, cult of the vault symbols in BL2 and presequel which a lot of them are really well hidden so it gave alot of incentive to fully explore every nook and cranny in every level, the unique guns from BL1 being farmable at different rarity’s from bosses, BL2 had extremely rare heads and skins that were dedicated drops from certain bosses like terramorphus, verminous, henry, Son of mothrak, etc, the challenges in BL2 and Pre sequel being unique to every level like hit a secret switch or jump on every couch opposed to BL3 challenges which were moxy tower, claptrap spare parts and typhoon logs in every single level. And Although not a gameplay level the story in 3 wasn’t as good and the humor feel flat at times but it had its good moments which if I’m being honest I really like BL3 in general but i feel like there’s too much that was changed or removed from the previous games for it to realize it’s full potential but I still really enjoy playing it when I have the chance cause it’s fun.

I beg of you, leant what punctuation is. Or at least a comma, anything.

@@Zelorp if you want people to do that I think the internet is not for you and maybe a book might be better my man

@@Zelorp Reread your own comment before being petty & complaining about punctuation in RU-vid comments. Btw *Learn*

borderlands 1 was mostly about chest runs and mabye a few boss runs, but mostly it was about the chest runs for loot, and it later changed into farmable bosses that also made it fun to see how fast you could nuke a specific boss with your new weapon

Borderlands 2 almost EVERY SINGLE named enemy respawned and had a dedicated drop.

Farming Crawmweraxx in Borderlands 1 was a lot of fun with friends and with no re-spawns what's to do for endgame??? It seems like Gearbox is shifting focus to replays rather than re-spawning the named enemies. I don't mind replaying but we should have the option for a new game plus with tougher versions of the enemies from the original playthroughs.

nah if farmable bosses dont exist, i dont play. that simple. if i cant farm to get a gun that my friend somehow got 1st try, i feel super excluded and feel i didnt even get my moneys worth for the game. buying a borderlands game i EXPECT bosses to respawn. (i kill the boss and dont get the gun, if i WANT that gun i'd have to restart a new character? bullshit.)

@@shooterboi so ur selfish?

3 really could have been 2 games and just expand the story (like increase the length of the maliwan saga). It felt extremely rushed

@@goldenhate6649 Ngl I prefered Katagawa as a villain. I really hoped he would have been more relevant.

BL3s story wasn’t super good but imo it was t bad either.

@@aimbreak1461 bl3’s story wasn’t good nor bad it was worse. It was ANNOYING TO PLAY THROUGH. To me anyways. Everytime a character talked besides baylex i wanted to throw my headset on the ground

@@bBrooksR I’m sorry for you that it felt like that. I actually enjoyed it.

I am so excited to play wonderlands, if the demo was that good imagine the full game with maybe more features and unique quality improvements!

@@kode-ep6io increasing difficulty Chaos Chamber

@@kode-ep6io no and I'm glad.

Why do people want to save+quit farm bosses so badly?? always the worst part about borderlands

@@biIl It's not about farming the same boss over and over, it's about being able to know what you're looking for and seek it out rather than just crossing your fingers and hoping you get what you want out of the obscene number of possibilities. It's why boss farming needs dedicated drop pools as well to make it worthwhile.

@@biIl your not farming the boss, your farming the loot. How else will there be dedicated drop distribution for legendaries?

Woke. Because you can choose a pronoun. Gtfo with that. It has no effect on you at all

@@Ki11ersix Not because of that at all. That part doesn't bother me at all. In fact give people the option to choose what they want. That is not what I'm talking about at all

Don't hold your breath.

Let's not forget Moxsy! YOOO GUYS WHAZZUP!

@@sherry356 Yeah you beat me to it lol.. Killer6, Moxzy, Joltz and SGZ are the channels I often watch for my Borderlands content.. they all rock! 🙂

Yet never changed the bow from 2 shot to 4 shot 🤧

I’ve had this issue with split screen too! If you click in on R3 you can see the details of the item, but it’s super flawed because once you exit that view, it takes you back to the top of your inventory. Still, it’s an option if you’re really curious about an item while playing split screen!

Yeah but you can absolutely dodge modifiers if you want

@@Ki11ersix I think the problem is that if you want to go for those higher levels, you HAVE to do the Mayhem Mods. Just becuase you can avoid it dosen't mean it's still not a problem.

@@darienb1127 I hit Chaos 20 with minimal issues with Modifiers.

Your also a professional borderlands player most of us arent lol so the modifiers might be more challenging for us

I just mean you can pick and choose

@@chicog6295 I don’t understand what you’re saying

@@chicog6295 Or it’s just his opinion. BL2’s story is so good that it does make me think there is a lot of recency bias in that statement, but it’s still just his opinion.

another franchise with a similar problem fromsoft games when it comes to bleed. you can roll the bleed damage proc in pvp since demons soul(and also being able to build bleed on someone when they are rolling.

I don't have any of those problems.

The only issues I’ve come across with UI so far is that the pause menu is a bit buggy and when you sell gear it puts you back to the top of your inventory. Other than that it’s been an extremely smooth experience. A phenomenal launch performance wise compared to the benchmark the industry has set over the past few years

@@chaoticpuncher8756 Yeah it's had a very good launch but it's not a multi-player game. You can't compare a game that's completely offline to something like lost ark or new world or any massive launches recently.

@@cK-ti5wy it hasn’t had a good launch, multiplayer has been broken since launch

This game has some of the best boss fights in BL history. Profanity isn't that important and the raunchy jokes are still there as innuendos.

@@Ki11ersix Idk what game you’re playing, wonderlands is bad

@@Ki11ersix profanity is part of the franchise and it’s hilarious also the lack of guns in this game is ridiculous

@@drizzle7032 He’s just on copium dude. He replies to every negative comment with some completely out of touch response.

100%

They're going to lose a significant number of sales over this one minor detail.. Personally, I won't be able to bring myself to buy it unless they fix this.

@@tristandudley2904 I’ve got it preordered and I still plan on binging it Friday but that seems like it’s going to hinder hunting legendaries

Indeed. Didn't expect the post launch content and updates to be tone deaf considering how good post launch efforts were on BL3.

@@Ki11ersix glad I cancelled my pre order

Yeah... you know there's some sort of calculated decision behind it, but I think it mostly just pisses people off. Myself included

Good luck with the boss, fun fight👍

Hope you beat that boss

Pre order in 2022. Thank u for being Part of the awful gaming Industrie

@@janundsoo most stupid answer of today 🙄🙄

@@janundsoo cry about it

Your supposed to unlock outfits

How long til it’s on steam?

@@DieselPanda -- It's a timed exclusive with Epic for now. Issue is with Borderlands 3, it took a few months to come to Steam, like 6 months. There isn't a release date set yet, but some are thinking that this will probably release on Steam around Sept. 15th, 2022 if past history means anything.

@@DieselPanda It could be a 6 month exclusive like BL3 was or it could be a year. Hopefully it's just 6 months. Honestly wish it wasn't exclusive. Tired of having to wait or just not getting some games cause of it.

@@narutofuckingfan on steam database api it shows march 31st so we shall see, but sadly i will most likely have forgotten about this game by the time it comes out on steam officially. Really hating this client exclusive bullshit.

@@JagerTRL Hoping it does come out on steam at the end of March then. Can't agree more with exclusive bullshit as well.

Lol read my comment. I agree wholeheartedly.

0:13 appears to be an immunity phase

@@ayo-7772 damn really wish they would trash those mechanics for bosses

Correct. Just was hoping that they learned from that

I feel the exact same way

BL2 is one of the greatest games ever made…

Get wonderlands. You will not regret it.

@@chicog6295 i 100% agree with him. I think it's the best game in the series as a whole. And that's as someone with several thousand hours in both bl1 and 2.

That sounds annoying as fuck, they could have just restricted access to the bonus through level locks so the lvl1 characters don't have crazy drop rates

Tbh manuals used to be cool

I miss the days when I spent my lunch money to get strategy guides to find those missing pieces to master an rpg

@@DylanVolksVictim right not to mention his whole career is based on these games what incentive would he have criticizing them

You play looter/shooter for the story🤣🤣

@@kennethsjvold9212 you play looter/shooter only for gameplay and 0 for story?

@@kennethsjvold9212 borderlands is story drive. And gameplay driven. I expect this game to have less of a story because its a game based on dungeons and dragons. So i just expect it to random fun compared to like borderlands 2

@@kennethsjvold9212 no, I’d be fine without a story, but the problem is with borderlands 3 the story completely stops the gameplay for 5 minutes so you have to listen to the dialogue and do nothing which is annoying

Me either and after a few drops I would just get bored. Chaos dungeon sounds amazing can't wait to spend hours in there. I do think there should be an option for ppl who would rather farm the same enemy. Options are always a good thing.

I get that, but I wanna be able to farm what will be a guaranteed chance at a specific item, Chaos chamber spawn a bunch of different bosses, so it'll be a less consistent farm sadly. If they let you customize which bosses/enemies/map you do after c20 that would be amazing. It seems like they put the takedowns from bl3 and put them up to 10, I can't wait.

@@scxnlines that's fair! They do allow you to choose what type you're going for, but the weapon itself will be harder if you're looking for something specific

@@scxnlines you can choose your reward type in chambers, so it isn't random across the entire loot pool

Thing is, it'll be the same thing as having a chance to get the drop... but now you just have a chance go get the boss ad well.

It's been years. Get over it.

I like it

All publicity is good publicity prolly like what happened with bl3 that once ppl started complaining and making videos they patched it I’d guess this is a calculated move on their part not just being stupid cuz they knew it’s been a problem

(Clears throat) "They actively leave these issue in the way because their leadership use these problems to as a secondary carrot On'a stick to artificially keep you going until they get your monies worth...

But they pay him, so there's a conflict of interest

Wasn’t borderlands 2 the one with linear levels (Washburn, candlerakk crag, wildlife preservation, bloodshot stronghold, etc.) and 3 more open? (Pretty much every map on eden 6 and Pandora, etc.)

@@milogop3574 They both had a mixture of open world style hub levels and more linear "instanced levels" throughout. Wonderlands tries to merge the two somewhat awkwardly with massive levels and tiny rogue-like "randomized" levels for Chaos Chambers. Nothing makes you pine for hand made levels when you have to deal with a robot randomly putting blocks together poorly.

Jrpgs back in the day didnt bother much with story either until ff4, thats when they actually started trying and even then they got mocked for even attempting it.

@@MILDMONSTER1234 I disagree. Sure the stories weren’t elaborate mainly because you could only do so much with snes nes or the like. But when you have to spend your time actually reading the dialog and learning the story it was definitely a better and much more engrossing story than what’s out today.

He said the performance was really good can you elaborate?

@@K2_- stuff like changing names, skipping tutorial, cutscene skipping etc.

@@hyperam4594 ahh, I get ya fair point.

Hope you like overt LGBT characters with annoying voices pal because this game is full of them

@@add3to6 lets be honest BL1 was the only game where the characters werent obnoxious

Yes, it was a better time

This game had me more excited then ANY game release ever. Then I heard about the non farmable bosses... if that doesn't get changed, I'll sadly never ever buy this game. Thats like 80% of what I do in borderlands, is farm random bosses.

@@tristandudley2904 I didn’t know people cared about farming that much lmao

@@travisjames5287 Not everyone lol, but you'd probably be surprised how many borderlands players spend a majority of their time farming 🤣 and honestly I bet it's an absolute amazing game, I'm just salty that I can't farm for perfect gear lol

Big fan of the series, but I cant recommend this one unless you only want base game story playthrough and not endgame

Homie you literally just recommended it in your own video

honestly no issues with performance at all.

@@hhhfdsfs split screen didn't, wonder how split screen is for this game

@@bungifish2227 im also worried about that since they havent bothered to fix up split screen for bl3 yet and its about as laggy as ever. not being able to open up your inventory during a fight without lagging the whole game for your couch friend is not ideal :(

@@sarasmedberg8203 exactly, kinda annoying how no reviewers are talking about split screen for this game. I heard on PS5 it can do 4 player split screen, but on PS4 it can only do 2 player split screen. But if it's anything like BL3 then I'll be disappointed.

What are you thinking of it? I'm a longtime borderlands fan, was a bit disappointed with 3, but this one is looking great
