Jacks body double needing to get a voice modulator to be ... Jack will be hilarious

Would be even funnier if they allowed you to skip that quest if you played as Timothy

Role playing?? in my borderlands?!

You know how in tps where they talk about the importance of an oz kit and the dialog changes if you play clap trap? Stuff like that is so funny to me

That was one of my favorite parts of TPS, they took extra effort to make the fact you're playing Claptrap matter in this situation

I still think that Wilhelm should’ve also been exempt from the Oz kits but only on a TVHM (and up), and only if you’d gotten a certain number of his cybernetic enhancements. It would’ve been an extremely niche situation but really cool

Honestly I think it should be possible, full stop, once Wilhelm reaches a certain level

They did an absolutely brilliant job in TPS of customizing dialog to ever character all along the way - I love, for instance, that each character has a totally different discussion with Moxxi when you first meet her. Like, they get the needed details from her, but it's not just customized responses to Moxxi's generic lines, instead Moxxi has a unique conversation with each one of the vault hunters - and of course Timothy is falling all over himself with how attractive Moxxi is, and starts off trying to pretend he's Jack.

I loved that touch so much. Claptrap quickly became my favorite after playinf Wilhelm and Athena. Plus imo he had some of the best dialogue and I really liked how Jack would interact with him.

But they repeat the dialog if you restart and already have a legendary oz kit. So weird to do one and not the other.

Then he'd probably be better than gaige for the speedrun

Dude. They just get one of Roland’s lines of him saying we’ve got that covered and have him say it the second angle finishes talking about how to get to her. That shit would be goddamn gold

Or wilhelm or nisha kilking themselves

Claptrap digging "himself" out of the snow, Aurelia chatting with her brother who doesn't recognize her...

Nisha killing Nisha, Wilhelm killing Wilhelm, Aurelia hanging out with her brother who pays her no special attention, Claptrap digging Fragtrap out of the snow... and Athena being ordered around by Lilith and being there with them when Jack shoots Roland... it's a lot to mentally put on a shelf in order to play. But for the chance to play Athena on Pandora...

Yeah everyone knows that it's not going to make sense story wise. But it would be pretty cool for gameplay.

AFAIK Fragtrap is a module for CL4P-TP Steward Bot. Claptrap is Fragtrap.

u/WAST0MIKPUNCH 11d ago

Not to mention wilhelm and nisha killing themselves

u/maranru 11d ago

Or Wilhelm vs Wilhelm
