Third, it is your responsibility as a consumer to do research on the product you're buying. If you bought a story-rich, choices-matter adventure game thinking you were buying an FPS action RPG, it's your own d*mn fault. You can complain all you want about how you "shouldn't have to read tags", but they're there for a reason. Tags are added by the developer to help identify what kind of game you're buying. And if you're too good for tags, at least watch gameplay videos or read reviews (since you're here complaining anyway).

(By the way, this game wasn't tagged as co-op like the other games in the series are. In fact, it very clearly says "Single-player" on the store page. I'm laughing so hard at the sheer stupidity of this review.)


Tl;dr : You spent money on a game you don't like just because you didn't bother to do research. And look, they get to keep your money. Hope you learned something from this experience.

Hahaha! You people clearly don't know how lore works.

So firstly, as other commenters mentioned, it's a Telltale game, not a Gearbox game. It was designed by a completely different developer, so it's absolutely unreasonable to expect it to be the same as or "play like" the main Borderlands titles. There would be no point for Gearbox to sign away the rights to the assets and IP when they could just make the d*mn game themselves. Different developer = different game.

Secondly, Gearbox approved the development of the game. It is canon. The creator and ongoing developer of the Borderlands series approves of the story in this game, so whether you like it or not, it's part of the Borderlands family. If Gearbox says it's Borderlands, it is Borderlands. They are the ultimate authority on it, and they say it doesn't have to "play like Borderlands".

If the "borderlands" name was used, it should PLAY like "borderlands"... Why should a guy have to deeply investigate the tags for a supposed known game type. This doesn't even qualify as a game. It's the dumbest peice of shite I've ever played... TellTale games can kiss my arse!

I would go further than saying it sux.. Its a piece of Sh****** Who the flip wants to watch a movie to play a game, I got netflix for watching a movie. One would think if it carried the name of borderlands it would play like borderlands. Yeah... Before you tell me it was a telltale game and make excuses for it, I say i dont give a flying fu****** who made it. If it is labeled as borderlands, it should be like borderlands. The only saving grace is that I didnt have to waste too much money for it. but it was indeed a waste of money. And dont tell me about tags either.... Some nimrods out there will tag anything so ya cant always go by that.

ITS A TELLTALE GAME!!!! People should have to pass an IQ test before reviewing games.

BUT IT`S A TELLTALE GAME THAT HAS NO "COOP TAG". IT WASN`T DEVELOPED BY GEARBOX.

Borderlands has been coop from the begining AGAIN this game SUCKS!!!!!!

IT'S A TELLTALE GAME!!!!!!!!

If you could read, there are things on steam that are called "tags". These "tags" tell what the games include. I still can´t find the "coop tag" on this game.
