TALES FROM THE BORDERLANDS THE TRAVELER TV

Fiona and Rhys have to bring a crew together for one final job, made up from many potential characters, each returning from the previous episodes. Telltale's games thrive on showing how player's choices and actions matter and Tales from the Borderlands delivers that in this episode. It's not just Loader Bot, who shines in this episode, as all of the main cast, along with the supporting cast get some memorable lines and moments with a breakout performance from all involved.

The droids really shine again in this episode - Loader Bot is clearly the undisputed best character of the series and hearing him lament how he 'Gives more than he gets in these relationships' after saving the crew yet again or responding to Rhys' 'I owe you one' with a deadpan 'You owe me more than one' again goes to show why. Considering a certain big film is getting its seventh episode this year, it's fitting that arguably the best romance is between a tall Golden Droid and a Knee High Droid that rolls around. As with all Telltale titles, the series has been built on its characters, their development, and their relationships - the friendships, the hated enemies, the awkward allies, and the romances. This episode is filled with all of the best aspects that made the series special, truly funny moments, moments packed with real emotion, some smart writing and, of course, great characters. The cliffhanger left Fiona and crew captured by security and Rhys stuck strapped to a chair, about to lose both his life and his body, becoming the new vessel Handsome Jack. Giving Rhys some time wearing Vasquez's face and using his voice gave Warburton another chance to shine, delivering a scenario that set up for some killer lines.īy the episode's end, the plan had finally all come together, but sadly not Rhys and Fiona's plan, however, Handsome Jack's instead. Some smart writing even managed to bring back the incredible talents of Patrick Warburton the death of Vasquez was quite a disappointment considering the superb vocal work Warburton produced.

The actual heist on Hyperion was a real joy for fans of one of the best British TV shows of all time, Spaced, with a scene that combined one of the most memorable moments of the show with John Wick in an accountant slaughtering, finger gun shootout. Even with cracks beginning, however, the team managed to put their differences to one side and even join forces with some enemies for an inspiring '80s-style montage / fabulous opening credits sequence to make it off world and to Hyperion. At the same time, other relationships became strained as everyone found out the truth about Rhys and Jack.

The whole gang managed to develop further as a group, with friendships and romances budding between human and bot alike. Scooter's death was fantastically done and anyone who didn't choose Step 3 is a heartless monster. The penultimate episode brought with it some of the best moments in the series thus far.
