Gearbox “not going to f*** around with you like Valve does”
Gearbox has had a great deal of success with their Borderlands franchise, and has several other IPs worth looking into as well. They're not going to let you think something like Borderlands 3 is on its way when it isn't though - apparently nothing like a certain other developer...
