New ‘BORDERLANDS 2’ character teased at SXSW. Plays like Brick? Gross, but I’m excited!

Borderlands 2.

There was a new Borderlands 2 character teased at SXSW. My excitement over this new character spells deeply my love for the title. (Maybe my favorite of the generation?) You see, it appears the character is going to be along the lines of Brick. This is a character who is pretty much useless, aside from being really good at getting me to hate his guts for yelling “slab!” over and over and over again. Jesus Christ, you much-muscled fuck face! Stop complaining, or get down here and help! Anyways. Will I play as him? Hell no! Am I excited? Hell yes! It’s Borderlands 2 news, you turkeys!

Kotaku:

At South By Southwest in Austin, Gearbox debuted a teaser trailer that hints at the addition of a new character to Borderlands 2. The character isn’t fully shown, but looks to be some sort of melee-focused badass.

The video above comes via Polygon, who are on the ground at SXSW.

“A new vault hunter is coming,” the teaser video promises. What do you think? Think it’ll be a return of Brick-style brawling? I’d be in, but then again, I’ve barely even managed to mess around with the last downloadable character, the Mechromancer.
