PC Gamer&#8217;s Tyler Wilde spent a few hours <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/borderlands-4-hands-on-preview\/\">playing a pre-release build<\/a> in May and found it not transformative, but solidly consistent\u2014which I think is what a lot of Borderlands fans want.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, while it&#8217;s probably too much to describe Pitchford&#8217;s message as a gently implied threat, there&#8217;s a lot of residual sensitivity over Borderlands 4 pricing out there courtesy of Pitchford&#8217;s prior social media hoedown, in which he needlessly floated the spectre of a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/gearbox-ceo-randy-pitchford-tells-anyone-worried-about-an-usd80-borderlands-4-pricetag-that-if-youre-a-real-fan-youll-make-it-happen-reminding-us-all-of-the-value-in-choosing-not-to-tweet\/\">potential $80 cost<\/a> for the game. That ultimately came to nothing, but not before a week of <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/the-absolute-sincere-truth-is-that-i-dont-want-anyone-to-pay-any-more-than-they-should-or-are-comfortable-with-randy-pitchfords-latest-post-on-the-borderlands-pricing-controversy-is-a-whole-dang-essay\/\">throwing hands with randos<\/a> over it.<\/p>\n<p>So I suspect some of that was reflected in some of the responses to Pitchford&#8217;s more recent message\u2014sparked not by the likelihood that Borderlands 4 won&#8217;t see any sort of deep discount for years to come, but because Randy just will not stop picking at the scab.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You and your team make some of my favorite games, but you make it really hard to like you when you spit crap out like this.

Those claims no doubt also helped prompt some of the negativity in the reactions to Pitchford&#8217;s message.<\/p>\n<p>To Pitchford&#8217;s credit and detriment in equal measure, he&#8217;s posting through it, cheerfully responding to messages good and bad\u2014in some cases clarifying his position, and in others just messing with people a bit. I know that urge, and I respect his commitment to it, but his willingness to wade into the fray (and apparent inability to avoid stepping on rakes) is what leads to this sort of thing.<\/p>\n<p>Will it have any sort of material impact on the success of Borderlands 4? Probably not.
