Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands
Ari: Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is so, so close to being the best in the series. The looting and shooting is better than ever, but freshened up by a fantasy-inspired respray. It does away with the series’ notoriously tedious driving segments. It’s got a banner cast, too, and a ridiculously compelling endgame loop. But the roadmap for DLC pales in comparison to previous games, particularly when you compare dollar-for-dollar with what you used to get. And while the ability to create your own character is a welcome change of pace, I’ll be honest, I miss having unique personalities for each class. Bad ending, too
Zack: I’ve not beaten Wonderlands yet, so I have no idea about the ending. However, everything else Ari says, I agree with. The fantasy reskin of Borderlands 3 works better than I expected, thanks in large part to some seriously funny dialogue and the star-studded cast that includes Will Arnett as the big bad guy of the whole thing. I’ll admit I also miss the unique characters that you played as in past games, but I miss the driving more than anything. Tedious? Uh, I don’t call anything that involves big machine guns and turbo-charged jumps tedious. That’s a fun time in my book!
