Sure, there was one gag in theВ final third of the episode when you run into the accounting department that started funny and went on for five minutes after you wish it would have ended. Even the ones that were telegraphedВ could be kinda funny. There were some legitimately funny jokes and sight gags. ThatвЂ™s not to say that there werenвЂ™t some good moments. I justВ found it hard to take anything in the episode seriously. Are our heroes in trouble? BetterВ get them to hum and haw in a funny way. The work they attempted to do with the characters in this episode was undone for me becauseВ TelltaleВ so busy trying to make you laugh that it didnвЂ™t leave you any time to feel anything else that they might have wanted. ItвЂ™s a shame because I was starting to like and connect with the characters in the last episode.

Apart from a couple of character moments, including one with a character who is actually a series mainstay but I didnвЂ™t know until I got a press release for theВ Episode 5, there wasnвЂ™t much focus on character interaction other than Rhys and Jack. Unlike the last episode which focused on character development and interaction, this episode was entirely built around comedy. And if you want to talk about the proper Borderlands games in the comments, have at it.Д®pisode Four вЂ“ Escape Plan Bravo picks up right where we left off in the last episode with the team needing to invade Hyperion HQ in order to get the final piece of the Gortys device in order to find and unlock the vault of the traveller. However,В the previous episodes areВ fair game to be spoiled. Spoiler Alert: As per usual for my reviews of Telltale Games games,В I will try to keep the reviews as spoiler-free as possible. And while a number of critics saw the penultimate episode of TFTB as the best episode in the series and called the series the best thing out of Telltale since the first season of The Walking Dead. When you take that into consideration, itвЂ™s probably not that much of a surprise that I havenвЂ™t rated Tales from the Borderlands as well as most critics. I think IвЂ™ve mentioned before that IвЂ™ve neverВ put muchВ more than five hours into Borderlands. IвЂ™d hazard that thoseВ critics are also going to be fans of or at least have played the Borderlands games at some point in time.

Tales from the Borderlands will be available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC via both Steam and the Epic Games Store from February 17.If you were to ask the critics, Tales from the Borderlands is the hidden gem of TelltaleвЂ™s slate of episodic adventure games. Get a reminder of the original trailer for the game below.

(It also helps that it is genuinely one of Telltale's best and funniest adventures.) Naturally, shenanigans ensueВ and there's plenty of nods to the events of this game in Borderlands 3, so if you want to fill in some narrative holes it's well worth picking up. If you need a catchup, Tales from the Borderlands is set between Borderlands 2 and Borderlands 3 and follows ambitious Hyperion employee Rhys and con artist Fiona as they're forced to team up after a deal for one of the series' much-wanted Vault keys goes awry. The only thing missing from this re-release will be the end screens on each episode telling you everyone else's choices. Gearbox has announced that episodic spin-off adventure Tales from the Borderlands will be available once more on digital storefronts, just under two years after it was delisted following the demise of original developer Telltale Games.Д¬onfirming the news on the official Borderlands blog, the release will contain all five episodes in one package-although you'll no longer be able to buy the episodes seperately-and will also be playable via backwards compatibility on the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
