In Borderlands 3, many new changes are coming. Two small things have been directly taken from fan wishes and are now a source of joy.
This has been announced by Borderlands 3: In the Borderlands show on Tuesday, the developers did not hold back with announcements. Among other things, a new live event and an increase of the level cap were announced.
However, while the increase of the level cap is partly debated as being too small, two other new features brought good mood to the community. These are actually just small things – but both noticeably make the gameplay more enjoyable.
Borderlands 3 fulfills two fan wishes
This will also be changed: First, the developers explained that soon event content would be toggleable. This also applies to the new one-week Heartbreak event, in which there will be various hearts to shoot. However, if players do not want that and prefer to play standard Borderlands, they can do so.
With this, the developers are responding to a problem from Bloody Harvest. The ghosts flew around until December, long after Halloween had passed – too long, some players thought. Now each player can decide for themselves how extensively they want to use a running event.
Cutscenes can be skipped: The second new feature will allow players to skip all cutscenes in the game. This function has been requested by fans since the release.
This is mainly because many players play through the story more than once. There are four classes, all of which want to be leveled up. The long cutscenes and especially the long intro take up a lot of time that many players would like to save. This is now possible – to the joy of the community, for example on Reddit.
One post with over 3,800 upvotes says “We did it: Cutscenes are history,” in which many players express their happiness about this small change. However, there is also the question of why it took so long: “It’s incredibly strange that we didn’t have this from the start,” user ArthadEG finds.
Overall, players hope that Gearbox will continue to listen to player wishes in the future. Recently, Borderlands 3 has shown itself to be quite accessible in this regard – for example with the loot event:
