ImpulsegamerJohn WernerSep 20195/5Overall, I must admit that “Borderlands 3” is an incredible game and it’s a perfect successor to the Borderlands series. However, as much as I enjoyed the game, I have my concerns for people who are new to the series.

Slant MagazineAaron RiccioSep 20192.5/5 starsThe game is boorish, infantile, and violent, and, in refusing to take any sort of consistent stand, is wildly off the mark.

TheSixthAxisJason ColesSep 20196/10I've got very mixed feelings about Borderlands 3. Overall I like it and it's fun to play, but it could have been so much more and the writing feels like time traveling back to your high school days and being surprised and a little disappointed at how immature everyone is. Few things in life are as embarrassing as the person you were five years ago. If you're not embarrassed, then I'm sorry to say that you may well be the Borderlands 3 of your friend group; stuck in the past unable to grow or change in any meaningful way, relying on fart jokes as a stand-in for your personality.
