I loved the first one, and it felt like they really hit their stride by the time they finished up all the dlc… And then the second one came out, and while some aspects (bosses, story) were overall better, nearly every other metric I cared about either stagnated for declined. It served as an alert that the devs weren’t interested in the same things I am and got me to boycott gearbox for a decent chunk of time. I eventually decided to try them out again once they had a massive bundle and discount on most of their borderlands games, as well as the tell tale games.
After playing through 3 and some of the dlcs, it feels like they’re just going through the motions at this point. It might as well be a more cartoony call of duty.
I will continue to wait for deep sales on the full products if I feel like they’re worth my time.
I really hate how they destroyed the loot system from 2 onwards. The core fun of anything being able to drop something awesome was a big part of the fun.
