Not far into Borderlands 2, Handsome Jack makes a point to tell you just how rich and well-off he is by letting you know of his pony made of diamonds - which he hilariously names "Butt 13 "I Just Bought A Pony Made Of Diamonds Because I'm Rich." This quote from early on in Borderlands 2 might be a bit on the nose, but there's something enduring about how upfront he is with his sense of righteousness. Though one of the aspects that makes him such a rich and realistic villain - despite being in a post-apocalyptic game with monsters and mages - is his strong belief that he's the hero.

He spends much of Borderlands 2 reminding you just how full of himself he is, in addition to just how psychotic he can be. One of Jack's most accurate - and interesting - descriptors is that he's a villain who fancies himself a savior of Pandora. 14 "It's Cute That You All Think You're The Heroes Of This Little Adventure, But, You're Not." When you can't learn a man's ticks, however, you learn not to trust him. He is capable of threatening, charming, lying and panhandling all in the same breath, and so it's no surprise that even the best of us can get carried away listening to him. Jack has a very iconic voice that won him a lot of fans in his first appearance in the game. As such, a lot of what we know about his personality we have to learn without any facial or body cues which is fine, because he's more than capable of selling himself with his voice. 15 "This Is Handsome Jack, And I'm Signing Off On The Hyperion! What Do You Guys Think? Accent Too Much?"Ī lot of Handsome Jack's dialogue comes to us through the radio in a manner that writers considered "similar to GLaDOS" from the Portal franchise. So without further ado, let's go Vault hunting and examine some of Handsome Jack's very best quotes. If we're especially lucky, there might even be something about everyone's favorite villain.

Updated January 17th, 2021 by Lee Juckiewicz: 2020 was chockful of Borderlands goodies and surprises there's even a movie coming!

Much of the strength of his character stems from his memorable quotes, which range from funny to disturbing to nonsensical - and everything in between. And while you'd think these attributes would clash - with Jack, it just. He has a perplexing dual nature of being both charming and sadistic hilarious and sinister. Borderlands 2's resident sociopathic villain, Handsome Jack, just might be one of the most interesting, enduring characters in modern gaming.
