What youāre not used to a developer going back on their word?
What a disapointment. Gearbox made plenty of money to justify a remaster.
I bought a couple of copies of the Handsome Jack collection for my sons.
Was thinking of getting Battle born, not now though.
Pretty much. I donāt feel like I want to get battleborn or borderlands 3 anymore. I donāt enjoy the whole bait and switch method used by corps.

What a bummer! BL1 is such a nice game. 
back to MGSthePP 
maybe extra characters will be added ? if not I hope for improved customization with skins and heads
Iād definetly buy the remastered version, for the game have so many things that can be improved.
Ability to reset story progress on main and dlcs, adding chance to get pearlescents outside of Knoxx dlc, making King Wee Wee, Ajax and Typhoon into respawnable bosses, fixing titles and rarities for Draco, Peneterator and Plague. All that alone would be enough for me, even without any other additions and improvements. But I know that the game would have to receive updated graphics, which would be even better. Borderlands Remastered Edition might as well turn out into my favourite SP game.

if it comes with a minimap, iāll buy it first day
I have at a minimum six people sayin, port the thing. These are all folks jumping to ps4 from xbox or ps3. Just a thought.
Iāve been checking religiously for any kind of update for a remaster, I was beyond angry to find out I couldnāt use my already paid for PS store games on my PS4 and not playing Borderlands 1 is simply not an option. I even traded my ps4 to my bro for his ps3 for a bit so I could enjoy a fun game again. Pitchford has really bummed me out on that comment. While itās not a difinitive announcement, itās enough to break my sad little heart.
Hereās to waiting for the FF7 remasterā¦hopefully that doesnāt get ruinedā¦
Same here.
The no fov bug, the scaling bug, the kb/mouse rebinding, and a graphics overhaul, with NO messing with the gameplay at all. I would buy that in a heartbeat. If they ADDED stuff to the gameplay, like BL2 and TPS features, NOPE, I wouldnt even touch it. I wouldnt even play it if someone GAVE it to me for free.
BL2 was in-between BL1 and TPS in terms of good/bad game play.
BL2 included much more of what I DIDNT like about BL1, but was still a fun game, despite it.
TPS was just SO bad. They made MORE bad decisions after other bad decisions after more bad decisions! They did what BL2 did, but x 1 billion !
I would insta-buy another BL1.
Maybe remastering BL1 would be a small useful step for Gearbox to get back to basics of BL franchize before starting to work on BL3. But of course that might be just my delusional wishful thinking.
Why wonāt gearbox say one way or another if bl 1will be remastered and released?
I guess just an idea and possibility which havenāt come down to a decision yet.
There are probably some people against the idea inside GBX. They have BL3 in the works, probably new Duke Nukem and Brothers in Arms. If they will somehow need more money and/or Borderlands 3 will take longer to polish, they can always release it to make fanbase happy.
Btw since the next BL is going to feature many planets and Vaults, doesnāt it mean that it wouldnāt take that much effort to include quests for the old Vaults weāve already visited? I mean if the game will be optimized for this kind of setting then it might as well be that weāll get that.
That aside, the reason why I want BL1 remastered is loot and weapons, not story and quests. Itās mainly because BL2 loot system is gimmick based, which cripples variety, while pearls as the ultimate equipment to play game for were so damn underwhelming that they appearently canāt be fixed.

I donāt blame them for keeping their options open on this, but Iām honestly not expecting it to happen.
Iām fairly certain the XB1 backwards compatibility option made them rethink the idea a bit from the first vague mention that it was being considered. Doing BL2/TPS made a lot of sense because of the popularity of one and the release of the other so close to XB1/PS4 launch, plus both games use the same internal engine. BL1 would be a lot more work from the get-go, so itās a very different calculation.
Hopefully they will add a Planet Called āBorderlands 1 the original remasteredā XD (kinda like the mini games in wolfenstein)
All BL games use unreal engine 3. I donāt see this being a huge issue to bring BL to current gen consoles like they did with 2 and TPS.
