The return to the hostile wastelands of Pandora It couldn't be better: new characters, more weapons, greater possibilities, more missions, immense scenarios… and above all, many hours of fun with which to catch the player in front of the screen. Thus, broadly speaking, is how we could summarize the benefits of this great sequel.
The role and the fps go hand in hand, once again, in a game that is one of the most interesting of those launched on the market in recent months. So, we invite you to read our review about this interesting Borderlands 2 that the study of Randy Pitchford.
That first adventure that dared to combine first-person shooter with role-playing was an experiment in Gearbox that obtained great results, agreeing both critics and audiences, something quite difficult to achieve in recent times. That first Borderlands It even had its version of the game of the year, the odd recognized award and, most significantly, having won the affection of a legion of gamers. This sequel is not short, going for more and better in every way: if the original seemed like a great game, Borderlands 2 It is a must.
The universe of Borderlands is governed by violence, survival, pillage and a special sense of humor, ingredients that give the game a unique personality and that push the player to look for beans in the chaotic Pandora, a place now subjugated to the designs of Handsome jack, an eccentric autocrat whose death will become the ultimate goal of this adventure.
In this sequel, none of the protagonists of the previous game are repeated, with four new heroes, each one differentiated with their own abilities and aesthetics: Maya -type Siren, with psychic powers-, Salvador -type Gunzerker, lover of heavy weapons-, Zero -Assassin type, he's some kind of ninja from the future- and axton -Commando guy, tech savvy-. Although, it is true that there is a fifth type of character, Mechromancer, called Dude but that, at the moment, is only available to those who pre-ordered the game, although in the future it will be a paid dlc.
As the players of the first Borderlands, developing our character is vital to advance with ease through Pandora, and for this the game has a comfortable evolution system divided into three branches with different abilities for each character. As a novelty, we find the Scumbag Rank, which will directly affect aspects such as health or shield. And of course the weapons in Borderlands 2 they continue to play a vital role, having multiplied the amount and possibilities of them, such as their different attributes or the type of ammunition that we can use with them (in fact, some weapons will be useless against certain enemies unless we load them with projectiles correct)
As is logical, the story follows the thread marked by the main missions, but this time there are a multitude of secondary missions, both related or not to the main plot, which provide dozens of hours of gameplay, something unusual in these times of adventure express and that give the program a playable value - and adjustable - quite remarkable in terms of duration. To curl the curl, the fantastic cooperative mode returns to Borderland 2, both offline to split screen and online, being one of the fundamental pillars of the game, as there will even be situations in which we will need the help of some other partner to put certain final bosses in their place. Borderlands 2 It is a great option for those who like cooperative mode, as we can play both split screen, as mentioned, online or even split screen and at the same time online with other friends.
In the technical section there is a qualitative and quantitative leap. It is hard to believe that the already veteran U can bring to life the visual spectacle that is Borderlands 2Not only because of its particular aesthetics, of course, but also because the settings are much larger, there is a greater polygonal load, we can see numerous elements on the screen and characters ... As soon as we enter Pandora, It is clear that this sequel leaves the original behind in this section as well. As for the dubbing, we have very notable Spanish voices, with careful dialogues and a sound of high quality levels.
The saying of second parts were never good has no place on this occasion. Gearbox has managed to develop a program that exceeds, and by far, everything seen in the first Borderlands: graphics, duration, spectacular, customization, cooperative ... It is an extremely fun and addictive game and, perhaps, one of the best programs that have been released in recent months. If you were a fan of the original, Borderlands 2 It is an essential in your collection, while those who want to try it, I invite you to approach it without fear of disappointment. Thank you Gearbox.
