Revelation About the Borderlands 4 Shield: Not Intended to be So Suggestive
A newly released patch for Borderlands 4 clarifies that the Cindershelly shield's suggestive voice lines were unintentional, addressing player concerns over its frequent and explicit comments in combat.
Uncovering the Shield’s Intentions
In a surprising twist with the recent Borderlands 4 patch, players have learned that the notorious Cindershelly shield, known for its suggestive comments, wasn’t actually designed to be that way. Initially seen as a humorous gag item among the multitude of in-game weaponry, it has now been confirmed to be a bug.
Context: Within Borderlands 4, the Cindershelly shield would often bombard players with overly explicit remarks, particularly during moments of combat, leading to player discomfort. The frequency of these lines triggered discomfort as they became too common.
Samples of Disturbing Voice Lines
- “Touch that barrel and scream for me”
- “Did you let go without asking first?”
- “Worship me”
However, according to the patch notes from Gearbox Software, the frequency of these voice lines has been adjusted to be less intrusive, giving players a little breathing room during their gameplay.
Even if it’s a little less frequent, it seems the shield will continue to harbor its suggestive tone. It’s now up to players to decide how they feel about this quirky aspect of their gaming experience.
