Why Gearbox created a Borderlands 2 boss so tough it's nearly Invincible

There is a boss in Borderlands 2 so tough you probably won't be able to kill it. But there's a quest to kill it anyway. It's called 'You.Will. Die. (Seriously.)' The boss is called Terramorphous the Invincible, and he earns his name.

Borderlands 2: Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep review

Everything's different but nothing's changed: that's the reassuring message Borderlands 2 is sending with Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep.
