Gearbox are still trying to convince everyone that Borderlands isn’t just a shooty Diablo. Their latest method is to reveal the in-depth skill trees, which they’ve done through the medium of Flash.
The four characters are all available (no creeping time-release hype-o-system here, no sir-ee!), cunningly through the links supplied below. If you want to impress your friends with your ability to click on buttons (after all, what is a dungeon-crawler if not a click-a-thon?) then the page link can be distributed for kudos.
Roland | Mordecai | Lilith | Brick
I (personally) still haven’t been sold on Borderlands – for all their promotion of the unique graphics, setting, co-op centric gameplay (huzzah!) and humour, they still also insist on driving the ‘It really is just Diablo with Guns’ angle (possibly for fear of the backlash when it turns out they lied to everyone if they say anything else).
Whether that’s a good or bad move will depend as the game is imminent for Xbox360 and PS3 (with the PC trundling along in a few weeks).
