I am so excited to be making predictions videos again and the potential Borderlands 4 has gives me so many fun ideas. As always please leave a comment if you have any ideas you want me to include in a future video. Also I am streaming every Wednesday at 7pm EST so feel free to stop by and talk about Borderlands with me.
Interesting video idea. An Eridian Guardian becoming a playable character sounds so cool to me because it'll be the first time an alien would be a vault hunter. Most of the Vault hunters are either human or robotic, with the exception being Zer0 since we have no idea what he is. But an alien would be such a great idea.
Originally I was just thinking about a new alien species they could introduce but then I realized we already had cool aliens that we don't know a whole lot about and playing as them would be such a fun way to give us more lore about them.
It would be cool if you could play as tiny tina
keep up the videos man, would love to see your channel grow especially as we get closer to bl4
Thank you, I can't wait until we at least hear an announcement
I've always thought a loader bot style VH would be awesome. Always wanted to see a capstone being you become a ultimate badass loader. They could also add the Claptrap mechanic of being super weak to corrosive but then you could resist fire. Would add another really cool dimension to the game
Exactly, just another little thing to think about. Plus there are so many variations to make like the bull loader, flame loader, exp loader, all that could have tons of fun with. But yeah, ultimately becoming a super badass variation is the end goal that would be so fun.
I'd like to see missions where you can pick and play as former characters. You don't have to worry about leveling up or worry about skill trees but you just get to grab them and go complete some stuff. I'd like to play as hammer lock or Marcus, or moxxi just for a little bit. They don't have to be a focal point of the game but just a fun little breath of fresh air.
That is a fantastic idea. Even just a couple of side missions to mix it up and give us a new perspective of what's going on in the world would be interesting to explore. I really like the potential of that.
I would like to see an alchemist type of character. Some sort of potion mechanic where you could apply different effects and elemental damage stuff to your enemies or using the potion on yourself for different buffs like the candies from halloween dlc in bl2, would be pretty cool i think.
I like the idea, but an alchemist more seems like something they could add to wonderlands or if they ever made a sequel. But I like the idea of an elemental focused vault hunter that could be more fusing elements with technology like grenades or have an ability to add additional elements to guns.
Hey man great video, didn’t even know there was hints at bo4 till you inspired me to check. If I may make a slight suggestion earlier in the video the gameplay was as loud as your voice so it was alittle hard to hear. All in all I think your idea about a guardian would be really cool, i really really loved zains whole teleporting between double really felt like I was dancing circles around enemies. Id love to see something like that in 4 but I won’t hold my breath lol.
Thanks for the tips. I did see they were testing Zane having some kind of teleport ability but was scrapped so hopefully they could bring something like that back for a character in 4.
Nice ideas, but I can't wait to play as tales from the Borderlands newest characters.
Hey! I think this is a very cool idea, and I haven't really seen anybody cover predictions like this. Cool Vid!
Thank you. I just think it's fun to come up with ideas of what it could be like and hear what cool ideas other people come up with.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 For sure! I’m a new Borderlands enjoyer, started with tps in 2019, then 3, then 2, then 1, which i’m playing now. these games have always intrigued me, and am really excited to see what bl4 will be like
Glad you found this channel then. The more people joining in o. The conversation the better
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 Yea! Would be cool to see the bl3 predictions to see what u got right and wrong lol
Haha yeah, I've been watching them before I make these to see what ideas I had back then and see what I got wrong.
Not having a playable siren makes sense, there are only ever 6 at one time, and we have played as 3 of them, and seen 2 others in close detail. the last one we haven't seen in game has the ability to control animals, like Fl4k so if we were to have a playable siren it would be the same gameplay loop as the previous games for those characters. So adding in a guardian or other enemy type that you can play as makes sense. Although, all six different siren powers appearing in Bl4 wouldn't surprise me as they would claim it as something like 'All the sirens need to come together in order to do this one niche thing in the war', even though it would be boring and cliche.
I'll cover it more in my story predictions video but I wouldn't be surprised if finding the next siren to bring them all together was part of the plot.
I love the concept of the guardian vh but I gotta disagree on the siren bit, I think every numbered game needs a siren as a core identity feature, I personally wanna see a gloomy vampire inspired siren who inherits Tyreen’s power, or Lilith’s successor or even a new more violent siren based on radiation and explosive elements
I like all of those idea for the potential next siren, but I think it would be better that we are seeking out that siren as part of the campaign rather than playing as that siren. But some kind of explosive elemental siren is a fantastic idea.
I would love to see some kind of mix between Aurelia and Timothy character like idk Placeholder As the Turbillionaire a character with the ability to turn enemies against their allies by paying them money with his ability as higher level and stronger the enemy is it would cost more and with some skills that gives him the ability to avoid death by paying once per resurrection or something like that it would be very funny having to playing managing your money as a real resource and not just a number that increase without a real use
I like that idea. Making money more if a mechanic that is something to watch would be such an interesting way to interact with something that has been in the game since the start. After I get enough SDUs I have no use for anymore cash other than watching the number go up so tying it to an ability would be very interesting.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 And i would love an skill that increase how much money you gain from missions and killing enemies with some red text that says "The poors are poors because they want to" XD
That would be nice too. Having a character tied to getting more money and using that money in different ways for gameplay would be so much fun.
Just had a thought, but what if borderlands 4 starts with the crimson raiders having been disbanded, and you going around the universe meeting the ex members, slowly mends the group back together. In that way we could meet all vault hunters and other members, establish a reletionship with them. and then end on a note with ready for war with the new and improved crimson raiders. that could be a cool concept for a story maybe.
I like that idea for most franchises but it feels like we've done that a lot in Borderlands. Most of 2 and 3 feels like that's what we are doing. It makes sense to introduce only a few characters at a time for new players but it's starting to feel like a pattern, so there is a good chance they will do something like that.
I understand why you would not want a siren but in the siren lore all sirens tend to be drawn to a wanderlust so it would make sense that they would then hunt vaults. I may be misremembering but I believe sirens have a special drawn to vaults.
I just think we've seen enough playable sirens. I'll get into it more when I make the video about what I think the story will be, but new sirens play a bigger role in that.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 oh yeah I totally get where you are coming from and sirens tend to be the most op characters
To play into the guardian idea, the vault hunter could be like a rogue guardian because he doesn’t agree with the war and wants to fight against it actually and just hunt vaults for fun
That's a good angle to take it. It seems like there is a division among the guardians and some are with us for the war so I was thinking more that route but I like the idea of having some rebel guardian that joins us just because that's what they want to do. That definitely fits well.
Honestly the only two Characters I Would like. Is Either a Siren with Tyreens powers. Or a Goliath type character. Kinda of Like the Spies we help on the dinosaur planet. Where the character transforms into a Goliath. Possible that can be changed into different enemy types.
Both are good ideas. I really like the potential of a spy that can have their action skill turn them into different bandits. Like have the option to be a variant of Goliath, or nomad, or some other bandit / enemy type. Something like that would be fun to play as.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687ever since they announced the psycho I always imagined playing as a nomad. Like you mentioned in the video the nomad can rush just like a bull loader, but also imagine going down a skill tree to be a bad ass nomad with 3 midgets connected to your shield. BUT you can either release them OR if you’re damaged a certain way the enemy can break them free for them to get a 3x attack and 2x speed buff but each one released has like a 30% of attacking the vault hunters. Of course we can have a flame thrower(or specking into a new element like slag if it returns) like fire nomads in BL2.
I like the idea of being able to spawn a shield with midgets attached that have a chance of attacking the player if detached or maybe having the ability to let them loose and attack enemies. This is overall a really cool idea I hope they find a way to implement because I see the potential in them having a character like this.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 I always got excited by that idea and if you can make one of them a badass with a class mod to add another, so 2/3 being bad ass. God I hope they pull something like this off. I honestly wouldn't care about the story if they implemented this
Unlockable vault hunters with a different story than the main cast
my only counter to there not being another playable siren (which i somewhat agree with anyway) Nyriad does say that the sirens are drawn to each other, and i'd imagine that they include that in order to draw forth the assumption that maybe that "great war" the watcher speaks of at the end of tps has something to do with the free will sirens have?? idk
I feel like they need a lot more setup for something like that war to take place so I'm assuming we have at least one more game until that happens. Maybe searching for more sirens would be part of the story. It's not that I'm against another playable siren, I just think we've had that enough.
I always thought a vault hunter with a flying ability would be cool, but I'm sure the level design would never allow for that.
There would be a lot they would have to do in the levels to accommodate something like that but I like the idea of some kind of hovering ability a vault hunter could have. Or some kind of floating jump would also be fun.
I kinda want mr torgue dlc or be part of the story where they need to take his company back.
I really like the idea of a company takeover dlc and I think you're right in that torgue is the perfect company / guy to do that with.
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 its get eaven better when you know that he sold his company for 20 bucks and a highfive.
Perfect setup for a funny adventure with lots of explosions.
Custom skill trees as an idea or start with 4 skill trees and more elements
I could see them making some kind of customizable skill tree work. Like have all the skills for a character under one tree so you can move around as much as you want kind of thing?
I think if we are able to play as a siren then we shouldn’t know they are one
Like we play as a siren but she doesn't even know she's a siren? Or is she hiding it from the rest if the team? It's an interesting idea either way, I'm just curious which way you were taking it.
Pre watching vid: zero back as a playable?
That would be cool to be able to play as past vault hunters but it seems unlikely something they would do. But if they started krieg and zero are my top two requests (Maya would be too but that would be hard to justify).
@@wrightchoicegaming6687 i get that, I really liked ur gaurdian idea, especially if they actually address the war thing from prequel but didn’t have like NO mention in 3? Would be weird for Lilith or tannis to just not say anything
Exactly, and the way Randy Pitchford talks in interviews and in that podcast series they released he talks like they have huge plans so I assume that war is part of the plans. It's so crazy how they didn't start to build that up more in 3.
