Gamescom 2024: What was your favorite announcement?
Personally, I’m torn between Borderlands 4 and Civilization VII’s gameplay reveal, though I’ll probably side with the former since it took me most by surprise. (Unbelievable how it managed to avoid leaks!) As a big fan of the series starting with the very first game, it definitely feels like the franchise is in a bit of a lull right now. Let’s be honest, the movie was a disaster, though I don’t think that comes as a surprise to anyone. So, while it was just a short CGI reveal, the prospect of a new Borderlands game gets me quite excited for the series at a time when the franchise really needs a bit of a pick-me-up.
