I feel like Jack has always been a double-crosser. He mentions punching his mom...I wouldn't trust him

He is not a nice man.

Also notable that you find strong evidence in that quest and another in the Pre-sequel that his grandmother badly abused him. Oh, and Jack doesn't realize he was abused. He claims he had a normal childhood in the same breath that he mentions his grandmother killing his cat when he didn't make his bed one day.

Jack was married at one point but the topic of his wife does not come up. Jack strangled* a colleague specifically for bringing up his wife. * Strangulation is not choking, and Jack thinks this distinction is important enough to remark upon. As he is strangling a dude.

Okay so Kaubocks and I were actually discussing this the other day, like a third of the quests in BL2 have an optional objective of finding porno mags. Everyone in Pandora wants loving porno mags constantly. It doesn't matter what you're actually doing for a quest but you gotta keep an eye out for them titty mags

look I love titty as much as the next person but you have to stop hearing only what you want to hear -- it's just Scooter's quests where the optional objective is always "oh bee tee dubs if you happen to find any porno feel free to send it my way" Marcus has moxxi's photos but that's something else entirely

Don't trust Jack So far is almost every Boderlands game he walks on those beneath him to get what he wants. This is also a Jack AI who knows what evil plans he has.

gently caress THAT AI LOBOTOMIZING rear end in a top hat (DO NOT TRUST JACK! if that wasn't clear enough) We really need a way to strip his AI of all personality so it just does just what we want it to. YES! Kaubocks posted:Marcus has moxxi's photos but that's something else entirely

Ah Episode 3 As you all might recall I mentioned how Episode 1 reeled me in, but it took Episode 2 to sell me on this being a solid series from Telltale rather than having just 1 good episode (again I was coming off GOT being meh). Episode 3 though is what made me realize that this was a something really special. Like others have said, Gortys was a wonderful introduction to the cast, a kind of innocence we really don't see in Borderlands, but coming across with that rare combination of cuteness and naivety that doesn't bug players. Athena joining the group and her interaction with everyone was well handled by Telltale in this game (again, as opposed to GoT and its canon characters). Finally this title card is my favorite. true it doesn't quite have the "action" oomph of the previous ones and while the later ones are also fantastic, this one to me really did two things well. A. It establishes character building moments in an efficient 2 minute package that feels organic to the story and 2. It reinforces that with Telltale games, its really the characters that are most important. They bring the life to the story and well made characters can say a lot without speaking at all. anyways, enough rambling Work with Jack!

We don't trust Jack because he's a psychopath and giving part of our brain functions over to someone else is a bad idea. Especially if that person is nuts.

It seems a lot of people don't understand what this choice actually is. The choice isn't between trusting and not trusting Jack, the choice is Agree to work with Jack until we decide we don't want to anymore or Tell Jack to gently caress off and never work with him ever. These are two very different sets of choices, and I feel some people are voting based on the wrong set.

The choice isn't between trusting and not trusting Jack, the choice is Agree to work with Jack until we decide we don't want to anymore or Tell Jack to gently caress off and never work with him ever. I disagree. I just went through to count up the votes and I feel a fair amount of people who are voting to be partners are doing so with the stipulation of "...for now." Just a lot of them are using the word "trust" instead of "partner", probably since the option to turn him down uses the word "trust". I will admit that I didn't really vocalize any reasons we might want to tell him to gently caress off during the video and maybe unwittingly pushed for people to trust Jack by shitposting in my own thread. It's something I'll have to learn to live with. I hope someday you can all forgive me. That being said I'm closing the votes a couple hours earlier than I mentioned because I'm getting impatient and excited and want to record and I don't think the result is going to change in two hours. Let's take a look at what came of the votes! Partner up! - 42 Turn him down! - 23 Not bad, not bad. Agreeing to be (at least) temporary partners took an early lead and it was hard for turning him down to really put much of a dent in that... but it's honestly a bit closer than I imagined? Expect the next video in a few days while I gather the footage I need and begin editing.

We got a pretty slow video this time around. Are you guys ready to see where Gortys is taking us? Yada yada yada, VOTE TO MAKE!! Seems this Atlas dome has a conveniently placed Quick Change station. Want to buy some new duds? Please vote for either two, one, or no items. If you want to vote for none or just one, please specify this in your vote so I can tally that accordingly. I hope you're all proud of your Scooter Special paint job because now we can't bling out Loader Bot. Voting closes on Friday at 6PM Eastern.

(Scrambles into the thread out of breath) Steampunk Princess and Cyberpunk'd!!!!!!!!!!! I care a lot about how our characters look and I want them to match and be cool !!!! ALSO NEW HAT FOR FIONA PLEASE!!! WE CAN UNDO OUR MISTAKES VVV Edit: gently caress thank you for ur post bc that's the one I meant to pick and I mistyped!!!

Steampunk Princess is a no brainer because it's a yes hatter. However, I prefer Cyberpunk'd for Rhys because it goes with his outfit so much better and black is always in style.

The nicer Jack is to Rhys the less I trust him, he's definitely got an angle going on but I don't know whether it's just that he wants to keep Rhys alive or something more sinister. Also, Loaderbot and Gortys keep becoming more precious and I hope nothing bad ever happens to them. And we should totally buy Steampunk Princess and CyberPunk'd because one gives us back our hat and the other makes Rhys' robo arm look cooler.

Ah drat, M8R-D was the only cool outfit. Like a true monster, I like Fiona better sans hat. Change nothing.
