Meet Krieg, Borderlands 2's Brand New Bandit Vault Hunter

Honestly? Kind of disappointed he's not a dwarf. That's not just me, right? Because then I'd feel weird.

Me too Alex. But maybe I should just go ahead and buy Borderlands 2 already.

@alex That's because there is already a kickass dwarf vault hunter. Salvador the gunzerker :P

Two awesome dwarf protagonists would be too awesome for any game to handle. It would be like eating too much candy.

Weird to see a BL trailer that isn't trying to mercilessly cram in your face how unbelievably hilarious and full of character the game is.

More interested in the level cap raise. It's great they add more characters though. I will try this one out.

I don't really feel any motivation to play as a new character. I've invested a lot of time in the ones I've got. But that guy does look kind of nifty.

I was reading about this on the Gearbox forums and it sounds like this is not included in the Season Pass, it will cost $9.99.

It won't be part of the season pass. The level cap was too hard to implement, but it's fully possible right after the season pass is over, so pay up morons.

Sort of like a badass psycho right? No pun intended.

Honestly though, I'm more excited about that new DLC they teased, I don't know if I can play through the single player ONE MORE TIME to level up to 61.

@alex Why would you want another dwarf when you already have the Gunzerker?

(Yes I know the reason for him being short is using steroids.)

This is incorrect.

Level cap and 3rd play through are included in the season pass. ($5 if you don't have season pass)

Only the new class is separate from the season pass and is $10

I stand corrected. Thanks for the information.

No way I'm buying Brick 2.0 for $10 though.

The blandest trailer that was ever bland.

Honestly, I'd rather play as a regular Psycho Bandit or Midget.

I'm not going to pay 9.99 for a level one character to go through everything again when I already have 4 other characters I need to play through all the content with. If this was included with season pass, that would be alright, but I see why it wasn't. Not for me.

I've already played Borderlands 2 three times now. I'm pretty much done with it and if I do go back it will be to finish up my Mechromancer's 2nd playthough. No reason to buy this.

Only way I would ever get this guy is if there was an option to start on the second playthrough on level 30.

20 vermis killed........not a single legendary drop or drop of any worth. Nope, game has way bigger issues than level cap or lack of characters. A loot game with worse loot drops than a racing game. Besides Im not gonna waste my time going through the game 2 more times, pointless padding just to get to the real game.

Don't like how he looks, too generic. Also this didn't show me anything about him to be excited about....

I'm wondering if they are releasing a playable claptrap as well? Special ability: really annoying.

Say Gearbox, who's your favorite character class in Borderlands 2?

Gearbox: Oh it's not in the game yet.

Nope, not paying ten bucks for a new character when I already bought a season pass.

Well that was the least funny Borderlands trailer I've ever seen.
