Since loot is king in Borderlands, cash can factor into decisions. Meanwhile, Fiona uses her thieving nature to find cash. Rhys has a cybernetic eye implant that allows him to analyze pieces of the scenery to get fun facts and trivia, though it can also be used to advance the story in certain instances. While Rhys and Fiona don't have the big guns that one is accustomed to in Borderlands, they do have abilities that they can utilize throughout the story. My only complaint here is that I only wish these sequences all played out like the first time it's seen, in which the second character would be asked for the real story and have the next scene determined by a dialogue choice. There are several instances where players will make a decision for one character, only to see an over-the-top sequence play out, followed by the other character promptly calling them out on their hogwash. Rhys and Fiona, by their nature as a corporate smooth-talker and a quick-thinking swindler respectively, are born liars. Some of those laughs are had by the very premise. There are some dark moments in the first episode, but there are more laughs to be had than in previous Telltale efforts.
#TALES FROM THE BORDERLANDS ZERO VOICE SERIES#
Many of the dialogue options carry that humorous flare that the Borderlands series has become known for, whether it's through Rhys' quick-witted responses or through some well-timed sight gags. Unlike The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us, Tales From the Borderlands is a decidedly lighter tale. If the signature Borderlands art style wasn't enough to indicate that this is different than the average Telltale game, the overall tone should hammer that point home. Alongside her sister Sasha and her father figure Felix, Fiona tells her own distinct tale that eventually intercepts Rhys' own outing, leading to somewhat of an uneasy alliance. This leads to the other half of the story, which involves a Pandora-born con woman named Fiona, whose story also revolves this Vault Key. The opening suddenly sets the stage for the grand story, which involves Rhys and hacker buddy Vaughn on the hunt to intercept a Vault Key before Vasquez can get his hands on it. Like everyone else at Hyperion, Rhys is looking to plow his way to the top of the company food chain before his path is suddenly stopped by a cutthroat named Vasquez. This is where co-protagonist Rhys comes in. However, Hyperion remains and there's now a huge vacuum of power left in Jack's absence. The events of Borderlands 2 have come and gone, meaning Handsome Jack is dead.
