Official site for this project is up: https://blolgame.com/

It could stay up for a while, or it could get served a takedown notice. All up in the air right now. Game is currently in play testing phase and servers might get overloaded but from what I understand there is an offline play mode as well. You might like it and you might not. I have not had a chance to test yet myself.

I dont like that word ngl its unsightly why cant it just be slight πŸ˜‚

2

u/Spare-Bowler-3105 13h ago

because apparently a slight of hand is an insult about how the insulted's hands are small & delicate

u/H0visboh 13h ago

Small and delicate hands you say?

I've downloaded and installed the game, but the launcher is saying it can't find the exe despite it being exactly where it's supposed to be. Any idea what to do?

u/Naive-Database-2888 1d ago

Where do i download the game EXE? I found a download, but the EXE required elevated permission so I'm not super keen on running it

Waited multiple game releases for this...

Okay but is the game actually good?

u/SourDoughBo 18h ago

The YouTuber admitted the game isn’t really good. It was mostly done to preserve lost media

Well, maybe it's content can be ported over to borderlands 2 as a mod.

u/Unlost_maniac 16h ago

It would not make it any better. It's content is not good lol.

No, I played it yesterday and it's neat that it exists but its combat encounters feel like a mobile game. You play through levels, not open areas like normal borderlands. And they are, wander through short area, kill dudes, open chest, leave. Like if you took destiny and made every mission 5 minutes long and took out anything that makes those missions interesting

How large is the final download?

u/thabigpapa 1d ago

The files are zipped at a 1gb size. Uncompressed for me shows about 1.39gb.

u/ezoe 1d ago

But how does it happens? It was never released in the first place.

u/thabigpapa 1d ago

The video covers the details, and the site has an FAQ you can refer to.
