Borderlands 2: The Video Gaming Experience is a slightly acquired taste - but there is an undeniable flow here once you figure it out. With the Diablo influence finally finding its feet, the game walks the line between Zany and Serious in both its combat and narrative in a way thats riveting and compelling. The sad truth is: Gearbox will probably never write a character as good as Handsome Jack (or most of the cast) ever again.
In fact (hot take) it was probably essential that Borderlands 2 was written with a largely comedic lean, because the unserious attitude helps you feel less seriously about the games cheap feeling gameplay. The games looter-churn means youll be obligated to use guns that suck in a game where the shooting already kind of sucks, the artstyle is pretty but also very poorly assembled and buggy - it all feels less irritating (key word being “less”) when the world is already absurd and illogical.

Finsihed the main campaign but struggling to finish the DLC.
This is apparently the best one in the franchise but i feel like its kinda overrated.
The claim it has "17.75 million" different weapon's in the game is complete BS maybe in stat's but it will not take long before you start to see gun models repeating. The gameplay becomes super repetitive sadly but the characters hold this game up.
