I find I keep coming back to play BL 1 and find Mord is the most fun to play.
I think it’s his character and I somehow relate to Mord, his comments and remarks. But also the balance as to his skills and use of assorted weapons. And of course there’s also Bloodwing!!
Lilith has always been my favorite. The class mod that boosts her SMG damage is beastly.
Mordecai is cool but I played him the least, believe it or not. Even though I like sniping. But I’ve been revisiting BL1 on my macbook on the metro ride recently. So I might give him another try soon.
Positive reinforcement chain and player agency. To explain more simply, Mordecai uses (comparatively) slow firing highly accurate weapons that rely on you aiming properly, and when you hit, you receive immediate gratification in the form of critical hit animations.
Well, he became my main BL1 character awhile ago. I only need a Assassin COM (I believe it was called) and it’ll be perfect to use the Serpens he found.
Simply put: I love revolvers, both IRL and in games; and Mordecai is perfect with revolvers, although I’m looking for an excuse to main revolvers for Brick. I used to snipe a lot when I had just BL1, but BL2 made me love melee as well, so I’ve been rolling with a melee–gun hybrid build for Mordecai. I will admit, though, that Mordecai tends to get the spotlight a lot, and I haven’t seen people talk enough about Brick.
Edit: I don’t mean to potentially stray off the course of this topic, but has anyone here ever rolled with the Truxican Wrestler mod for Mordecai?
Saaweet! I made it to level like 15 with a legit truxican playthrough. I did another one with the bandit user created buzzaxe and for a while was fun, but the thing does too much damage to make it fun and balanced.
