    Episode 5 is a home run for Telltale and the entire Tales from the Borderlands series. Witty, heart-wrenching and so damn well-written. The perfect final episode to a perfect series. Now we'll wait for season 2.

    Most every major unresolved plot point is given a conclusion in The Vault of the Traveler.

    A Telltale Borderlands game sounds very strange on paper, but this series, and the finale in particular, illustrate exactly why this pairing has worked. The finale sets itself up for a second season, and we very much hope that we get one.

    Despite these gripes, Tales from the Borderlands – Episode 5: The Vault of the Traveler gloriously wraps up one of Telltale’s best stories.

    Technically, this isn't a marvel, though as a closing chapter to this wonderful series, it delivers where it counts.

This is more of an interactive choose your own adventure story than a game. The music in it was really good, and it was decently voice acted. Some of the choices you make can be interesting, but at the end of the day I felt it was trying too hard to be humorous. I didn't really care much for the characters and the humor kind of felt like a big inside joke. A couple parts were genuinely good for a laugh, but much of the time my mind was drifting off to playing actual games during my time with this title.… Expand
