Anyone else getting a Borderlands vibe from the new Odyssey skins?

I am still not completely sure about it but I feel like the odyssey skins resemble borderlands and its characters.

Jinx - Gaige the Mechomancer Malphite - Salvador the Gunzerker Yasuo - Zer0 the Assassin Sona - Maya the Siren

Even the worlds in the trailer kinda resemble Pandora in a way. Of course, they are not the same exactly but if you have played borderlands you would see the resemblance

Even the way the trailer strikes a similarity to Pandora with them with guns and weapons fighting monsters.

Anyone else agrees with me?

Borderlands, wild star, yeah it would be in that ballpark.

RIP Wildstar, some devs commented on how it was doomed from the start due to really poor leadership

Now it's shutting down for good, they just announced https://forums.wildstar-online.com/topic/157432-carbine-studios-and-the-status-of-wildstar/

Yeah, I heard about that and it is sad. I thought it was interesting how they tried to have something for all 4 mmo playstyles of SAKE, but I just couldn't get into it.

It feels super Borderlandsy. I just want to know the lore for Kayn's legendary skin, can't find that shit anywhere

it's just generic "post/semi-apocalyptic" themed.. borderlands, guardians of the galaxy, the fifth element, etc.. its the 'Used already outdated future space technology" theme..

I'm talking about the characters themselves and how they have an uncanny similarity to the characters from Borderlands.
