✔️ Nice iteration over the Borderlands formula in a kinda medieval fantasy setting.
✔️ Cool spell system that replaces the grenades from other Borderlands games, enjoyable alternative gameplay that uses cooldowns instead of ammo.
✔️ Loved the multiclassing system that allows to open up a lot of fun build mix-matching.
✔️ Rich character customization!

💭 The fact player characters don't have any specific personality removes a lot from their charisma. On the other hand it allows the players to be fully in control of what they imagine for those, but it kinda breaks off with part of what tends to make the Borderlands experience impactful.
💭 The overworld feature is a bit of a mediocre addition - in theory the idea seems nice and fun, but it makes movements between areas a bit more tedious in the way it is implemented, while obfuscating a bunch of features in UI behind several layers of menus (we only discovered we could fast travel to non-Brighthoof areas near the end of the game for instance).
💭 The overall narration is... pretty meh. Nothing awful, but where the Dragonkeep DLC for Borderlands 2 explored Tina's way to process her emotions, Wonderlands tries to do the same, but misses the point by not actually engaging with any powerful emotions aside from a few glimpses of abandonment issues. It prefers focusing more on a lighthearted and chill tabletop RPG story rather than poking into more serious subjects, while in my opinion the mix of the fun and the serious is what generally makes Borderlands stories compelling.
💭 The post-game feels a bit poor and repetitive. Not a big issue if you don't plan on lingering after the main story end, but it's just empty procedural content with little to no actual progression or matter to explore.

❌ The random encounters and similar stuff sucks pretty hard. The fact the random encounter arenas are often the same, not very interactive, and don't have any loot or narrative purpose, in addition to not having a minimap, makes them really feel like the dumb fillers they are.

A fun looter-shooter, with nice gameplay mechanics and a fun mood, but not much on the side as compared to the other Borderlands games. Still an enjoyable coop experience!

WOW! This little diamond had been completely off the radar on my end since its launch. But better late than never; TTWL feels so fresh and alive (especially in comparison to Borderlands 3). Only 5h in but it definitely could be that this one might climb its way to my fav 'Borderlands' title - even superior to BL2. The new mechanics are just top notch and I'm truly hoping for a 2nd part of this game to see how they improve on them and react to player feedback. But replacing the nonsense grenades with magic spells (that you can customize, personalise and skill) is such a great decision. Also the fact that you can create your own character is unbelievably cool. Setting and story (You literally play a pen and paper campaign and Tina's the game master) are just amazing. Also the traversal between the wonderlands is such a smart take. You journey through an overworld in iso perspective and it feels somehow like pokemon. But in mature and funny. Encounters are smart, enemie AI is top notch and the hardest difficulty is exactly just right. Until now: 10/10...

SPYWARE

Tos change in favor of spyware is scummy af especially when it even affects gog games

it's not like the core series

Probably one of if not the WORST Borderlands game to release. Only took me 4 hours to realize it's a game made for human bots.

It's fairly ♥♥♥♥.
Trans knights, gay marriages, critical race theory. Everything you don't want in a game, packed into a neat little box of PC politics being shoved down your throat.

Then the game itself: half assed and repetitive. The "dungeons" are all the same dungeon. Multiple times. And I mean multiple.

With other Borderlands games, me and my buddy we'd play alone because we couldn't wait to play together, and we 100% all games except the pre-sequel.
This one, we started this ♥♥♥♥ in March 2025 and we haven't gone past 30 hours; in a couple of weeks we've done more than that on Helldivers.

Do yourself a favour: don't buy. They do not respect your money or your time.

0 équilibrage.

très décevant tout du long, des dialogues à rallonge, personnage peu développé, des troupeaux d'ennemies sans difficulté

Pay full price for half the content of BL3 and double the woke. Not entirely a bad game but just feels like a project they gave their interns to make with BL3 assets and then had employees stitch together. Game should be 20 bucks max it feels like a blood dragon like stand alone expansion to BL3.
