Cutting Off the Branches: The game puts next to no attempt into incorporating choosing to kill Bivington Bradwick, as regardless of choice he's mentioned as being alive in most of the endings and Octavio having never killed anyone can be a literal plot point later on.

Guide Dang It!: Most of the Vaultlanders can be found with some exploration or as rewards. However, other have... quirky collection methods: Axton requires you to retweet @GearboxOfficial. Salvador requires you to connect a SHiFT account to a Borderlands or Wonderlands game. Zer0 requires you to finish Episode 5 with 80% or more Skateboard score.
