Some additional thoughts on this game:

-It is easy to dunk on Claptrap in this game, but at least he's appropriately treated as a punching bag here in this game. (Tycho in comparison is too smug and gamer poisoned to be in any way entertaining.)

-Maybe this is the fault of my own strategy but the final one-on-one matches always take up like 75% of games for me. Which is unfortunate because the table talk is what sells this game.

-It feels like before the Greenlight era you had games like this series that almost feel like Valve-published releases. Even beyond the appearances of GLaDOS (and Heavy in the first game) the general vibe feels like what you'd get from the 2008-2012 era of Valve, before fully taking their spot as PC gaming's landlord.

-I joked about this in my first review, but I do think this game could only have been made by a particular company at a particular time. Telltale had the clout and Walking Dead money in 2013 to get these characters, but there's nobody around now that's filling that space; licensed games are either AAA money pits or Fortnite skins at this point. And the media landscape is even more spread out than it was 10 years ago that I don't know who you would get for a Poker Night 3 outside of broad picks like Ricky Morty or Deadpool or whoever; you're probably better off just watching your favorite streamers play a poker game or something.

100% of gamblers quit just before they're about to fuck over claptrap from boderlands' finance

I hope I've become a poker expert after the amount of hours I've spent on this just to see my friends sam and max
