Just recently got this thanks to the current PSN Sale.

I'm in the middle of Promethea now. I'm hitting the same problem that bothered me in the previous games: inventory management. It sucks. I keep worrying that I'm missing out on guns, or that I have to pick up as many things as possible so I could sell them off. The SDU upgrades help, but not by much, and they're quite expensive.

Just getting to this with the sale.
Tell me there is a character with a turret. Where's my turret?

Edit: I actually get a prompt to level/skill up at the beginning when I hit level 2.
I go in and it says I have no skill points. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Flak and Moze can have a mobile turret if you look at their pets a certain way. I would say Zane's digiclone is basically a turret though.

You don't need to assign skill points for level 2 as it just unlocks the different action skills.

I keep coming back to the game, getting a level up every time I tiuch it.

Then I don't play it for a while, rinse and repeat. It just hasn't been very exciting for me so far. I'm level 14.

I don't think I really started having fun with most of the characters until like the mid 20s. Once you hit that first capstone skill, it gets better.

Elsewhere for 8 minutes
Thread might be dead but I've recently returned to the game to play the DLC and is there a trick to getting takedowns to pop when queuing? Can get the trials to pop but nothing at all for the takedowns. Tried multiple servers/times and still nought.

Last time I played this my save got corrupted during one of the DLCs and I had to revert to an old save that was basically just freshly into the postgame. The last I knew the mods to skip the story and dialog were kind of scattershot in how they worked, the animations had to play out even without the speech. Have those things been improved or has the game added the option to skip that stuff?

I really love the gameplay in this but holy shit I just cannot sit there and listen to this same shit again.

I'm having fun with multiple simultaneous playthroughs. They've stopped improving the game. Still plenty of bugs floating around including ones introduced by the last few releases.

Hopefully next year. I think we got garbage DLC for Wonderlands because of BL4 work.

I think it was either
They weren't expecting it to be success and threw something together
They took planned free updates and turned them into DLC.

Really just want a double jump and dash. And for snipers and rocket launchers to not suck.

I'm excited that BL3 is getting a Switch port, but I'm really wary of it. It seems like something that the Switch just doesn't have the processing capacity to handle. I hope I'm proven wrong.

Currently working on a new character in BL3 and having this portable would be sick. Very curious how the Switch version will shake out. Remote play with the new Playstation thing might be good too.

Honestly, the game works fine on the Steam Deck. Maybe I'm worrying about things a bit more than I need to. If all it is is a matter of tuning, then it should be fine. Maybe that it works fine on the Deck is what prompted them to see if they could port it to Switch.
