Overview
Matt Armstrong explains how they created the Borderlands universe, however, it was always a first-person shooter. Therefore, they were going to make it the best FPS it can be, however, the universe is so much bigger than that.
As Gearbox Software worked with Telltale Games the idea of creating a narrative-driven story was really exciting. The matter of choice in Tales From The Borderlands is no longer about what gun am I going to equip but what am I going to do in this event and how will it impact the rest of the story.
Randy Pitchford and Anthony Burch drop a BIG tease about Handsome Jack!
