The Crawling of DungeonsBy Locke on February 3rd, 2010
Diablo had a similar feel to it. If you saw a piece of equipment that you really wanted, you could let the rest of the party know, and hopefully they would allow you to have it. Unfortunately, this is not so in Borderlands. Many players will allow everyone in the party to die in order to come in, sweep the loot, and leave the game. Its infuriating to be sure. WoW has the whole Need/Greed thing going on to prevent this, and even if someone takes all the instance items, theres always a good chance that theres a equal or better item on the auction house. Borderlands doesn’t have that. They have shops that rotate their inventory, and to be honest, their weapons upgrades aren’t as great as some of the stuff you find out fighting. One great thing about Borderlands though, is if you get in a beef with someone, you can always have a duel with them, anytime, anywhere. You can prove to them that they suck by overwhelming their superior firepower with raw SKILL. -Locke |
