Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep proved that Gearbox knew exactly what players loved about Borderlands, the characters they wanted to see more of, and on a bit of a sad note, the closure that our favourites and ourselves sorely needed. Not only that but it added a new setting, an engaging twist that kept everything fresh, and managed to tell a heart-touching story. The DLC was an absolute treat for fans who wanted more time in the bombastic game world riddled with laugh-out-loud moments and ripe with things to point a gun at. The story centres on fan favourite Tina running a game of Bunkers and Badasses, essentially Dungeons and Dragons, but it has a deeper meaning as Tina gradually comes to terms with Roland’s death throughout the quest.
Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep is the fourth campaign DLC for Borderlands 2 and was such a hit with fans that as of November 2021 it was released as a standalone game. Oh yes, if we’re rounding up a list of the most beloved DLC packs that gave gamers exactly what they wanted, there’s no better place to start than with this one.
Borderlands 2 - Tiny Tina’s Assault On Dragon Keep 2K Games Whether these entries sat right in line with the experience so far or wildly left of field, players were stoked. These are the additional content packs that made it clear the developers of these games not only listen to what fans wanted, they cared enough to make it happen. For this list we’re highlighting the games that really hit the nail on the head with that second one and ensured that dedicated fans got what they were after. Scarlett (Fairly decent narrative for a Borderlands 2 DLC, good weapons like the Pimpernel and Sandhawk, cool environments, and Scarlett is a cool character for the most part).įor the Headhunter packs, I don't remember a whole lot, as the last times I've played through the entirety of them were years ago, but from what I do remember:Īpologies for the very long post, I'm curious to hear what you guys think.The value of DLC has been a hotly debated topic for years, hinging largely on its cost, content, and length. If youve already purchased Borderlands 2, The Pre-Sequel and all their DLC on a last-gen console, The Handsome Collection wont offer you much beyond a prettier face and enhanced local co-op. Torgue, on the other hand is just so charming and fun to play through, I just enjoy how bright and cheery (bright and cheery for Borderlands standards) it is, there's not a whole lot for me to say about this expansion pack, it's pretty straightforward).ģ. Torgue/Tina (I really can't decide between these two, while the Tiny Tina DLC is probably the best in Borderlands 2 (despite her overrated, god-awful humor), it's not as appealing to me narrative and aesthetically wise as the Torgue DLC, that being said, it's still essential for every player of the game, introducing many cool environments and weapons+gemstones and probably the closest thing to a full-on story from any DLC. This DLC, somewhat similarly to the Torgue one, feels like a bit of a narrative power-trip, I also think that, while not extremely fleshed out, Nakyama wasn't that terrible of a villain, his pathetic nature helps empower the player the whole way through).Ģ.
Hammerlock (I'm really not sure about my top 3, but I admire the very dark and hostile, yet very quiet atmosphere and aesthetic of this DLC, plus it has some great weapons and shields like the Rough Rider, Interfacer, and probably other stuff I'm forgetting.
For me it'd PROBABLY be (order might change):ġ.
