I've only played a little bit of Borderlands 2, but I really enjoyed this first episode. It reminds me of the tabletop game "Fiasco", where interlocking circles of relationships collide and everything that could go wrong will go wrong.

The first two hours of this series just flew by and I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens next!

So far, I've been playing Rhys as very loyal to his friends, because I figure friends are hard to come by in Hyperion so you want to keep the ones you have. My Fiona is rather impetuous and all about family, which was why I had her shoot Felix. Fifteen years as a family and he leaves his "kids" twisting in the wind the second he makes a score? He deserved the bullet he got.

Something odd I noticed: Rhys' eye is a different color in the current scenes as opposed to the flashbacks. In the past, it's blue and in the present, it's yellow. Could this be related to the influence of cyber-Jack?

The story feels like a great game of "Fiasco" set in the Borderlands universe. I just hope it turns out better than most Fiasco games do.

Is anybody else really jazzed that Fiona apparently has Sherlock Holmes-o-vision now?
