Borderlands 3 Aims to Blend Social, Streaming & Accessibility Features - MMORPG.com
Over this past weekend, Gearbox Software was on hand during Guardian Con to talk about its triple strand combination of social, streaming and accessibility features. Gearbox is aiming to let players take part in Borderlands 3 in brand new ways.

Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
Borderlands 3's instanced personal loot is a huge and essential improvement, and it is baffling that the series has gone this long without it.

So here is a question did Twitch hand them a butt load of money to add that thing in? Just a reminder esport haven't exactly taken over the world so is not a thing yet, so O_o games are now a sitcom for the masses? I would think I want to play BL3 more than to watch it like most ppl would rather do, so why even add that junk?
At anyrate, I know its a minor thing but the idea of such crap gets added into something we all enjoy seems like an invasion of our personal space. This twitch crap could be and might as well be spyware or tracking your life, so for gearbox to start data mining us is nothing ethically wrong right? I already know ESO is more of a spyware than a mmo so is BL joining that ship?
Gearbox is making me edgy for their future games if BL3 features included such twitch junk, next they might be adding more to the party like EPIC/EA/CIA/FBI/any sort agency/companies to the list of they spy on you applet eh? Don't ever think that is a thing? For ppl who lack foresight/consideration for others will start with the little things and seemingly adding more shady crap into our game if we let them like DLC/lootbox/day1dlc/pay for beta o_O?!/mtx/and here we are all kinds of crap into our games.
I guess all this is just me, I guess I'll be seeing all of you on twitch (for the love of gaming goodness gaming sitcom anybody, seriously?).
~ A world run by money will always have limits, but a world without money have unlimited capacity, so which one will rise to the heaven and beyond? SpaceX apparently ~
I'll be playing Borderlands 3 solo intentionally for my first play through. After that it becomes a co-op playground on the higher difficulties. But I'll try to do the hardest stuff solo too, for personal challenge.
Other people really mess up the flow of the humour.. either by starting/completing missions and picking up new echoes which interrupts voiceovers that are already playing or by talking over them themselves. I like to do a story playthrough first so that other people don't spoil it.
But, yes, I've been saying for years on all Gearbox's posts that they need personal loot. That was the biggest problem with the co-op experience.
We get it. You don't like Epic. You don't like Randy. You don't like Borderlands. You don't like Twitch.
Why did you even click on the article? Are you a psychopath or some shit?

I LOVE Borderlands, and will definitely buy it.
I just hope they care more about great gameplay instead of Twitch Streaming leaderboards....
Gut Out!

No golden chest keys... However, Gilded chest keys will be available.
April is such a long ways off. *I can do this*
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You posted here just to say you're not gonna buy it. That's not triggering. That's just creepy.
As someone with a strong accent myself she can haunt me any day of the year. The game is not out and she's already my main. I've always played the Siren, except for BL1 because Brick was too awesome not to choose him.
Streaming,i don't see it,i wouldn't want to watch anyone stream this.What will happen is the same for ANY game,a few popular streamers will vault it up the charts for a short while "maybe one month" then it will disappear as a streaming game.
Social game,i don't see this what so ever,not a chance.
"Accessibility features"Not sure what this is all about,people will simply play the game and play through as fast as they can.After that i doubt it would be much fun to play a second time because to me the graphics are not very good so seeing once is cool but that is enough.Some will call this an art style ,maybe it is but it is low quality art and still i did not see any indication in the past games of it being visually appealing,so it is a once play through then it collects dust,IF it could hold my interest that long "i doubt it".
Personally i don't enjoy playing games that have a purpose to "beat the game",i enjoy all other aspects of gaming which are far too many to name but mostly the fun aspect,interaction,nice places to explore visually,micro managing,open ended game play instead of linear,longevity,replayability etc etc.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
