The jokes in BL/BL2 felt like their own unique jokes, contained within the Borderlands universe, because they were. BL3 had a lot of reference humor, which can be fine, but some of the memes they referenced were 3-4 years out of date and the jokes fell flat and made us groan.
The trailer for 4 was promising, and I only realized on a second watch that it contained no jokes, which honestly I appreciated. I think it has potential, as long as Randy Shitford doesn’t do anything to fuck it up.
I mean they made a lot of pop culture jokes in borderlands 1 and 2. But they weren’t about “current” stuff. It was, as I said, evergreen things, like lord of the rings and tmnt.
