At the beginning of the first Borderlands the angel AI tells you to get off the bus and you will be met by a robot. However, this is impossible. You don't get your HUD until after you meet claptrap and the AI is built into the HUD. I know this because in Borderlands 2 the AI says "there are perks to being built into everything on this planet." Therefore, the AI would have never been able to contact you to get off of the bus.

So there it is my friends. What do you think?

lol nice

but its borderlands, plot isnt exactly its selling point, even though borderlands 2 had a pretty decent plot.

Another one would be the first claptrap you see referring to his experiences in and around fyestone with the bandits, and then later in the dlc he turns out to be an assassin sent to kill you.

But Angel is not an AI, maybe she has the ability to communicate telepathically, since all Sirens have different powers.

The respawn stations are just game mechanic...

The guardian angel is a siren. Magic dude?

Soul of the mind, key to life's ether
Soul of the lost, withdrawn from its vessel
May strength be granted so the world might be mended...
So the world might be mended...

They were given a reason in game though, so they're more than 'just a game mechanic', I'd say.

I was thinking the same thing. Borderlands 2 actually had a pretty good plot, I enjoyed it.
