Hopefully staying up until 4:30 in the morning is worth the Pre-Sequel speedrun.

Why did Elizabeth look like a thalidomide baby, exactly? Was that part of the plot or...?

That's a combination of the Art Direction giving it Real Aesthetics and horribly shaving off every poly they could to fit onto the late-gen PS3/360

also because Ken Levine likes his daughters wives daughters fan service like he likes his stories; impossible and highly fantasized to the point of creepiness

"we have to stop comstock from existing, so we're going to kill you" "wouldn't you just be killing me in this one universe where you show me all these doors, and not the other universes where you don't kill me" "uhhh hmmm"

Like for some reason the story got confused and thought to solve the problem with time travel would be good enough

no, see, all worlds split off from one Real world, therefore you just have to kill people in the Real world before the split and all things that split off also die.

we have quantum physics but come on we're not imbeciles

But they get to that point via booker and elizabeth having door adventures, so there has to also be a universe where they have door adventures and they actually go to Paris instead or whatever

Also maybe there's an alternate universe where booker breaks his leg as a kid and can't fight in a war or something. or a universe where he is an accountant

The DLC even shows that killing Booker did nothing and that there are still Comstocks running around in other universes.

nope, Booker died in the Real World so he no longer exists anywhere after that baptism.

Which means Anna Dewitt doesn't exist either! whoops.

probably would've been good if they'd established their idiot prime reality theory beforehand, huh?

After playing the base game which I thankfully got nominally free via PSN+ I realized I never wanted to play the DLC.

Everything I've heard about it reinforces that decision, and I hadn't even heard the part where they reversed the base precept of their own ending, just the horrible creep stuff.

It's Borderlands so of course it's amazing and fun, but I still prefer 2. Pre-Sequel didn't suck me in like 2 did.

All the NPCs will look up and shout, "Do this quest!"
