#BORDERLANDS 2 SIR HAMMERLOCK DLC BOSS FIGHT SERIES#
His "end" was also one of the funnier moments in the series and so fitting. The fact he's outclassed in-universe is a nice contrast to all the various enemies who think you're going to be a pushover. He's so ridiculously earnest and determined to be your archenemy, he completely overestimates how powerful his forces are compared to the Vault Hunter.

Professor Nakayama is a villain I enjoyed because he's more or less a Venture Brothers character. I also liked the Catch-A-Boat enemies as well as the giant spiders who provide yet more contrast from the vanilla game. When you see them, it's advisable to kill them quickly. They can put curses on you, heal themselves, and even mutate their fellows into stronger enemy types. The tribals are definitely different from your regular bandit and the Witch Doctors' magic is surprising until you become used to it. The final Boss is, sadly, a "trick" boss.

There's marshes, jungles, and even a series of cliff-side villages I enjoyed exploring. It's not as imaginative as Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep but that's a high bar to set. The continent of Aegrus is a beautiful and well-developed contrast to the majority of Pandora we explore in Borderlands 2 or other DLC.

Fair warning for purchasers who might feel the same-and that's the last I'll speak of it. It didn't get any better with the bestowing of their Witch Doctors and Medicine Men with magical powers. I won't lie, even with the ridiculousness of being a bunch of white guys doing this, I was uncomfortable with the imagery. The natives are trying to kill the Vault Hunter but, otherwise, are just featureless masked enemies in grass-skirts chucking spears.

The Vault Hunter is hired to kill a bunch of exotic animals for sport, film a nature documentary, collect stool samples, and stop Nakayama's plan to avenge Handsome Jack. Ironically, for a game series which has extensive subtext about riches being strip-mined from planets for corrupt foreign interests, Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt has no subtext about imperialism. While they, they find themselves ambushed by Handsome Jack-worshiping "natives" (later revealed to be just another gang of bandits) who are controlled by a surviving Hyperion scientist out to avenge Handsome Jack. The premise of Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt is the titular English cyborg invites our player character on a hunting expedition on the Pandoran continent of Aegrus.
