  1. I can see #TakeTwo heads wary of the #Borderlands4 situation and sales numbers.

    The momeny the numbers get below expectations, I can bet my two yatchs that #RandyPitchford is going to get the boot.

    Remember, Take-Two OWNS #GearboxSoftware. The moment they'll have an excuse to ditch Randy, they will.

  2. "I understand player's frustration with how the game runs on PC.

    We came up short, and that's why we're doubling down on optimization post-launch so more players can play, and those with high-gaming rigs can play it even better."

  3. I wonder how many copies #Borderlands4 will been sold in the next two weeks.

    If they get more than 1M, then guess what: you better save for that RTX 6090 or PS5Pro. You proved you don't care about optimization.

    As Luke Stephens said, they care until "it runs well enough". This is "well enough".

  4. The more tight is the money to spend on #videogames, the more selective the consumer is.

    The higher the price, the easier the consumer will see a game as a failure the moment it looks like one. Critics will be harsh as well.

    It will be fun to see how #Borderlands4 fares out.

  5. I firmly believe that #Borderlands4 is going to be the guinea pig for Take Two to see how the market reacts to $80.

    It's not about selling millions of copies, or "players" numbers, but if the sales are over or below expectations. If it's below, I bet #TakeTwo will try to justify the $100 price tag as hard as they can.

  6. Randy Pitchford has not accounted that it's easier to find a way to NOT make it happen, and make other, cheaper games happen instead.

    Don't tell him that in 1991 there was no Steam or The High Seas, and Arcades were a thing too.
