What else? XP unlocks new abilities, but your own FPS prowess is absolutely vital. Pitchford talks about a level 4 player taking down level 10 mobs, simply due to his expert way with a targeting reticule.
| Rock, Paper, Shotgun has a hands-on preview of Borderlands, and through it you get a good feel for this RPG-FPS. I stress FPS (see the small quote from the article above), as there are a couple people here at StrafeRight who get their panties in a bunch whenever someone mentions a mix between the two.

| | | I'm with you Joe. This one is looking pretty damn cool.
I avoided Fallout 3 because of the RPG/FPS thing (ya, ya... so shoot me) but this might be the mix i'm looking for |

| | | what's the scoop on this, is this online MP? that would be drastically different than FO3. if not in look and feel, then in ambiance

| | | I would love a fallout-esq type game that concentrated more on the FPS aspect of the game. I'm sorry, but when I'm less than a foot away from you, I shouldn't be missing with my gun.
