I am getting somewhat tired of the "goofball male lead and the morally questionable but always right no matter what she does female lead" duo that makes this adventure really uninteresting after some hours.

Rhys is lovely on his own, and his story has everything to make it interesting, but Fiona's part gets surprisingly ham-fisted into it after the first episode, and their dynamic just falls apart after some choices. What I mean by that is that seemingly every time you do something as Rhys, you get punished for it. You are being called a jerk, a loser, and the list goes on. Why did this guy even bother with caring for any one of these characters? No matter if you are honest, selfish or friendly, everyone will screw you over. You cannot even say that this is part of the Borderlands world, because it is not.

And the story? It goes nuts. I get it, it is a Borderlands story, but Borderlands does not masks itself as a simpler story, that goes totally nuts at the end. They are always about a grand adventure, a hunt for loot and saving the world. This game started out as a more personal story and it got ruined by the fact that it is all about the vault hunters and a certain character that became the Joker of this franchise.

Also, did I just mention how insuffurable Fiona was for me? Every other character had heart and motivation. Her being a rude blank space without any kind of development really made me angry when all your choices were either to manipulate, kill off other characters without any consequences or just straight up bully Rhys. Her sister was way better, and I would have actually loved this game if she would have been the other protagonist.
