![]() ![]() If you’re a fan of the gunzerker class in Borderlands 2, then we’re just not going to see eye to eye on this one, and for that, I apologize. It also doesn’t hurt that she has the Cold As Ice skill which allows you to throw a Frost Diadem Shard at her potential targets that will continually beat the snot out of them until they’re dead before it moves on to the next person. The sister of Sir Hammerlock, Lady Aurelia is a great choice of character if you’d rather not see the whites of your victims eyes but pop their heads off from a great distance with a purple quality Jakobs sniper rifle. Yes, okay, he might only be a look-a-like doppelganger but at least you can take some solace in knowing that if you’ve ever wanted to see Jack get his comeuppance then all you have to do is stand in a room filled with bad guys and let them riddle his body with bullets until he is very, very dead. More DLC goodness here, or money-grabbing exploitation of fans depending on your viewpoint, and at least this allows you to play as everyone’s favorite megalomaniac dictator, Handsome Jack. His point of view is a lot lower than any other character you’ll come across which can be quite disorientating the first time you use him, but he does have the ability to unlock Action Packages which no-body else does. If he hasn’t then you can play through Borderlands: The Pre Sequel with him and it’s an exciting experience. The Mechromancer class is a nice touch, and Deathtrap is always useful to have around in the fight, but the best part of Gaige is the ability to choose just how easy or insanely difficult you want to make controlling her through her skill tree.Ĭlaptrap is considered a fan favorite when it comes to the franchise due to his sense of humor and undoubted cowardice, but if you play through the game enough, then you might find that he grates on you just a little over time. First off, if you’d pre-ordered the game, then you’d receive her free of charge which is always a nice little bonus and secondly, she had quite the active Twitter account for a while which is just a clever bit of marketing by Gearbox. Hell, Netflix is less expensive than that.Īnother DLC option for Borderlands 2 but at least Gaige had a little more in her arsenal. It might also have something to do with the fact that you could only get him as DLC at the not cheap $9.99 that kind of sticks in the throat. It seems a little bit like a cop-out if you choose what is basically a human tank to hack and slash your way across Pandora and though there may be subtle nuances to his character if there are they’ve yet to rear their ugly head. It might have something to do with not being able to fully get to grips with the psycho class that means Krieg shows up here. If for no other reason than the “Bro” scene where she’s imitating Rhys and Vaughn’s friendship. In all honesty, the last point is the most prevalent as Tales From the Borderlands is a laugh riot from start to finish, but it’s Fiona who stands out as the top comedy turn. 3: She has a sneaky pistol up her sleeve. 2: She’s a con-woman, even if she isn’t that good at it. It might seem strange to have Fiona higher up the list than Rhys, but there are a few good reasons for this. When Borderlands 3 finally hits the shelves in September this year, then all that might very well change, but until then poor Rhys is just going to have to settle for propping up the table. It pains me to have to put Rhys this far down the list because Tales From the Borderlands is still a go-to game whenever the mood takes me but as Telltale have bit the big one, and there will be no sequel to the brilliant first game then here is where he has to stay, at least for now. So with that in mind, and with Borderlands 3 on the horizon, it’s time to rank every playable character across all four games so far. Let’s face it if the classes and characters available to you are paper thin and, worse still, boring then you’re not going to stick around very long. No, a game like this only truly reaches legendary status due to its main protagonists. ![]() If this were the only reason for the outpouring of love it receives then that flame would’ve died a long time ago. After all, who doesn’t love a gun that spits firey death? Sure enough, the ends haven’t been what you’d call satisfying, but the endless grind rarely gets boring as you continue on your quest to grab that delicious loot. Whether it’s the vast menagerie of creatures trying to kill you or the horde of bandits attempting the same, fans of the games can’t get enough of that cell-shaded action. There’s just something addictive about the world of Pandora and everything that comes with it. Ever since it first appeared Borderlands has become one of the most beloved game franchises going. ![]()
