| - (Clip of Borderlands 2) From the developers of the popular Borderlands series...(Clips of Aliens: Colonial Marines and Duke Nukem Forever) and some other games they really hoped you would forget about, comes a game that fuses the frenetic first person shooting of Borderlands with the misanthropic rage of a MOBA: Battleborn. Blast your way in a pastiche of gameplay styles that is Battleborn as you hold off the certain destruction of the universe...by frantically pushing creepways, building towers and ganking enemies...until you lose a 30 minute game because your team is full of gibbering idiots. Oscar Mike: You suck! Ha ha ha ha! Yep. It's a MOBA all right. Welcome to Solus, the last star in the known universe. It's the nexus of a perpetual battleground for the fate of life itself where you will take up arms as one of five sides in the perennial conflict for the fate of the universe. Featuring... Tree huggers (The Eldrid), The 1% (Last Light Consortium), cosplayers (The Rogues), The Empire (The Jennerit Imperium), and 'murica (United Peacekeeping Republics). Then join forces against the ultimate enemy: Rendain. A cross between Count Dracula and a penis who wants to extinguish all light in the universe. Because maybe when it's dark everywhere, he can get laid. Sick burn on the fictional character. (Clips of characters taunting involving Ambra, Boldur, Montana and Rath) Gear up for Battleborn's unique gameplay style that fluctuates between dumbed down and overcomplicated and choose your champion from one of 25 Battleborn...19 of which are locked away at the start in case you have too much fun. Then prepare to be overwhelmed as you master each character's attacks, abilities, helix upgrades and mutations, and adapt to the diverse roles they each play on the battlefield...or if you hate learning, just pick the guy that plays like Call of Duty and go nuts. Oscar Mike: I can do this all day! Test the waters of Battleborn in the campaign missions where you'll challenge waves of same-y looking robots, defend objectives, and fight phase based boss encounters while listening to a paper thin storyline with all of the quirk of Borderlands but none of the charm. ISIC: You're right! Everybody dies! Then when you're done with the story missions in a couple of hours, get ready to play them over and over again to farm that sweet, sweet loot. Once you've gotten the hang of the characters, jump into Battleborn's handful of multiplayer modes like... Capture, the obligatory point holding mode. Meltdown, the robo-assisted suicide mode. And Incursion, the MOBA-lite mode that they barely tutorialize at all where your teammates will pick all damage dealers, run around the map ignoring the objectives and ignore all attempts at communication. (The screen is focused on a chat box requesting heals. Clips of DOTA2 and League of Legends are shown) Basically just like any pickup DOTA or League game you ever played, except in Battleborn, your team won't be able to aim for sh*t either. So pick up that comically oversized gatling gun, grab some friends and jump into a competent FPS MOBA hybrid that's surprisingly fun to play...before it gets completely overshadowed by the juggernaut that is Overwatch. Starring... Anorexia (Ambra), Nacho Libre (El Dragon), Man GLADOS (ISIC), Fungi To Heal With (Miko), Black Ops (Oscar Mike), Death Note (Shayne & Aurox), Professor X (Kleese), 50% Neck (Montana), Falco (Benedict), Mad As Elf (Mellka), Soul Calibur Character (Phoebe), and Prinny Bot (Toby). Borderborn: The MOBAning. (We get a clip of Marquis in action) Team? Hello? They're taking the mid Thrall camp. Anybody? (Marquis gets killed by Benedict) Aw, f*ck this. I'm going back to League.
