And also the more you play the Borderlands games the more you'll start to hate Claptrap so there's also that. And yeah he's also in the first. --- https://imgur.com/x04tPRZ https://imgur.com/t7T392I <cite>Smashingpmkns posted [p:945118634] in Do I need ...

Jabodie 09/26/20 8:34:42 PM #8:	No. These games are all pretty stand alone imo. Personally I would say the story peaks in 2 with an okay/ mediocre story carried by its one good character. --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:945121186] in Do I need ...
