Borderlands 3 isn’t being made

I really like this statement from Randy, shows that they are committed to building games and building the popular titles the way they should be. 

We love Borderlands, and we know customers do too. So we will be doing more in Borderlands. But the thing that, when you think of what Borderlands 3 should be... No. We are not developing that right now. We don't know what that is yet. We can imagine what it must achieve, but we don't know what it is yet. I'm not going to fuck around with you like Valve does with Half-Life 3. Look. We know we want it and we know it should exist, but we don't know what it is yet. But we are doing things in Borderlands that we'll announce soon, that are good, and that I think people will be really excited about if you love the franchise.

If you read thru the corporate speak it would appear that Gearbox knows that Borderands 3 needs to be made and maybe put it on a projection calendar at some point but isn’t actively developing the title. 

For that I applaud them since there is nothing worse than a cookie cutter COD style franchise that somehow makes a ton of money with each release and yet fails to release a new game.  It is hard to say what Borderlands 3 will be however, if they screw it up that might be the end of Gearbox Software as we know it.  Until then I’ll be waiting for the eventual BL3 game announcement and may even be first in line when it goes gold.
