"Do you guys not have phones?"

How can you be this out of touch with your consumer base and not be wearing clown makeup

Do you not see the probably-$500 shirt he's wearing?

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

$500? You need to actually visit rich people clothing stores, $500 would come nowhere close to what they pay.

Lol borderlands absolutely doesn't have the clout for that. Even a real price tag like $60 is a bit much for BL.

2 and the prequel were great, but I have no interest in the series after 3. The playable characters and skills weren't really appealing, and the plot was so bad, I wish it hadn't had one. If 4 looks amazing, maybe I'll try it when it's on sale.

Honestly, I found the weapons and builds that I played pretty fun. To me, the plot and general writing is so bad I think it ruins an otherwise great game. BL3 might be the only game that I recommend muting everything and turning off subtitles to enjoy it more, just such obnoxious writing.

This is the guy who wears Nicolas Cage outfits for PR and announcement videos.

I'm not surprised he's out of touch. He probably still thinks the Borderlands movie was a great time and effort.

Nicolas Cage outfits? Like a suit?

The shit winds are blowing, Randy

Must be as good as the movie

[–] Goretantath@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

People keep saying the kinder phrase "out of touch" when really, he's just a greedy asshat.

They need to hire back that guy from HAWP, but they're not getting eighty bucks from me. I bought that last one full price and still feel bad about it.

I mean if he only wants to make $160 off his ancient franchise then let him yap.

Dude literally lost his USB drive in medieval times with porn on it and claimed it was a magic trick
