what's up guys this is Veno from
0:14
sense.com and today I'm going to be
0:16
giving you my Borderlands 2 review now
0:19
right off the bat you guys can tell that
0:21
um the HUD and basic style Remains the
0:23
Same from Borderlands 1 with some minor
0:28
changes the core game Still Remains
0:30
about the same with the uh original
0:32
skill system still being in place but
0:35
they've introduced what you guys may
0:37
have heard as the badass system where if
0:40
you complete certain challenges like
0:42
getting 10 head shot with a sniper rifle
0:44
for example then you'll unlock badass
0:46
tokens which you can redeem for inter
0:49
turn badass ranks these badass ranks for
0:52
example you can get um plus 1% for um I
0:57
don't know all melee damage but this
1:00
badass rank applies for all your
1:01
characters throughout the game so if you
1:03
start a new character then you'll have
1:05
that badass rank applied to them which
1:07
of course you can turn off if you don't
1:09
want it to apply to them now here you
1:12
guys can see some Gunplay between uh
1:14
myself of course and these uh monsters I
1:17
forget what their name is but um I got
1:19
this shotgun right here which um you can
1:22
only fire one bullet before you have to
1:24
reload but you can see that um you know
1:27
if Still Remains the Same from my
1:29
Borderlands one the you know the
1:30
essential Gunplay or
1:32
whatever a new feature you guys might
1:34
not have been aware of is the ability to
1:37
play split screen online which they
1:38
didn't have in Borderlands one much like
1:41
the uh recent Call of Duty titles that
1:43
have come out I think this is a pretty
1:45
good feature because they didn't have it
1:46
in Borderlands one and I found myself um
1:50
trying to decide whether to play with my
1:52
buddy he was right next to me or play
1:53
with my friends here are
1:55
online here you guys can see the menus
1:58
you got the badass ranking system that I
2:00
explained earlier you got your map your
2:02
missing objectives your inventory and
2:05
your skill points sh you guys have
2:08
probably noticed that I'm playing a zero
2:11
but it doesn't look as he did in the
2:12
trailers and the commercials that
2:13
they've had this is because they've
2:15
added another new feature that allows
2:17
you to basically customize whatever
2:19
character you're using they've added the
2:21
ability to customize your head as well
2:23
as your skin and the colors that your
2:25
person uses now they haven't added the
2:28
actual ability to change like the actual
2:30
garments like from head to toe that you
2:31
wear but they have a bunch of presets of
2:34
it allow you to pick from that you can
2:35
use to uh customize you know just have a
2:38
different feel from everybody else
2:40
that's playing
2:44
it the sound in the game is pretty darn
2:47
good the music is great the monsters
2:49
they have some pretty cool sound effects
2:51
the dialogue is funny and the narrative
2:53
itself is actually pretty good apart you
2:55
know Borderlands one wasn't that great
2:57
but I mean they actually have somewhat
2:59
of a story we're going this time so the
3:02
narrative it's pretty good they still
3:04
have that AI girl but I mean once you
3:07
get past her then you know the narrative
3:09
is pretty good so um they also have you
3:12
know the side quest and all the bounty
3:14
board stuff that you can do so make sure
3:16
you do that when you're playing cuz they
3:18
got they offer some pretty good content
3:20
if you want to get into that some pretty
3:22
funny stuff and of course you get all
3:25
the good loot from the side quest and
3:26
whatnot the loot itself is pretty much
3:29
you know the same has the same concept
3:31
as Borderlands one where you know if you
3:32
kill someone they have a chance of
3:33
dropping something good something bad
3:35
you know what I mean and of course you
3:37
can go around and try to find a treasure
3:39
chest that contain loot Shields and you
3:41
know grenade mods and whatnot all that
3:44
stuff abbing robot tears once you're
3:47
done collecting all the fur why don't
3:49
you bring it to me instead of
3:51
hammerlock I overheard clap asking you
3:54
for the bully Mong fur you're collecting
3:56
as I fear he would do something
3:57
irredeemably stupid with it like make a
3:59
Mohawk out of it or something let me
4:01
sweeten the deal if you bring me the fur
4:04
I shall give you one of my finest sniper
4:08
rifles so there you guys heard some of
4:10
the witty dialogue you know between clap
4:12
trap and the other guy clap trap is
4:14
pretty funny in this game as he was in
4:16
the first game so expect to hear some
4:18
witty things and you know downright
4:21
stupid stuff from him but you know it
4:23
wouldn't be the same game without
4:28
him so heading back to the customization
4:31
and loot topics some of the enemies and
4:34
treasure trcks actually contain actual
4:36
presets that you can pick up which adds
4:39
to your list of presets that you can
4:40
choose for your character so if you pick
4:42
one of these up then you know you unlock
4:44
a different head or something like
4:50
that so here you guys can see I just
4:53
reached level five so I unlocked a skill
4:55
point which I can use to unlock my
4:59
character special ability now zeros is
5:01
he sends out a decoy which you see here
5:03
in a second and you actually go
5:06
invisible which allows you to you know
5:08
either sneak up behind an enemy and
5:10
melee them or it actually adds increased
5:13
bullet damage so basically the longer
5:16
you wait the more powerful your damage
5:23
is so all in all the game itself is
5:26
pretty darn good it's essentially the
5:28
same as Borderland one but with some
5:30
added Nifty new features new narrative
5:32
new characters new weapons stuff like
5:35
that the graphics are great the sound is
5:37
good the gameplay Gunplay everything is
5:39
great I would highly recommend it to
5:42
anyone who was into Borderlands 1 and if
5:44
you haven't checked out Borderlands 1
5:46
the story is different so you don't have
5:48
to worry about that so you can just hop
5:50
right on into it you know play some
5:52
co-op with your friends it supports up
5:54
to four players Co-op all right guys
