A very accurate retelling of Borderlands the Pre-Sequel

I know your coms are closed atm but would you ever do coms of beast versions of the other sirens? ;0;

Can’t promise it’ll be fast but I AM hopefully gonna do one for every Siren (except Steele most likely because we saw her for maybe 5 minutes and don’t even know wtf her powers were so I... don’t have much inspiration to go on), no payment necessary

Next up (eventually) will be Amara

Is that office were Jack sits for most of the pre-sequel his or Tassiter?

This... is a very good question, I wonder about it myself.

I think the probable answer is that it really is his office and he just lied about his status as a low-rung programmer to give the people he hired something to back that would sound more noble, like in a Robin Hood kind of way. Again with how he seems fond of making up his own narrative to fit his perpetually-growing ego.

Aside from that, though, they make it a point to show you how he kills Tassiter there, which is still... odd.

He literally has a secret compartment built behind the library that he would only know about if he owned the office--so?

It's rather ambiguous, even to me.

Why Tassiter and engineer Dockett(from Fragtrap echo) are calling Jack 'John'?

I've read a few threads about this before, and most seem to think that "Jack" is just the nickname he prefers and that John is his real name. Jack is a common nickname for someone named John.

Personally, I think that makes the most sense considering Tassiter is a blatant asshole to him due to his social status, and would probably be calling him John just to spite his identity preference.

I should probably also mention how he clearly tries to separate himself further from his past self after killing Tassiter, adding the "Handsome" part to match his new, masked appearance. He's taken on a whole new persona, and proceeds to rewrite the events he'd experienced in order to better fit his personal narrative (as seen when exploring Opportunity in BL2.)

I'm pretty sure I heard a line of dialogue where he's pitched a fit over someone calling him "Jack" and not "Handsome Jack," so when I write him in with Timothy, I have him refer to Tim as the one who's just "Jack," the shadow of his past self. It's really the mask that separates the two versions of himself, what makes him "Handsome."
