BL2 was a bigger BL1, which is exactly what people wanted. It wasn't a 'step back' by any stretch of the imagination.

I dunno. I felt the revolvers were too weak. I mis the mashers of BL1.

I have to disagree, loot sucks imo. In BL1 I was finding new guns that I wanted to use all the time, not so in BL2. It really feels like there is only a handful of different guns and most suck. They did just about 0 optimization of the game engine. The difficulty of the game isn't a good difficult it is cheap difficult. And WOW did I just spend $60 on a game that is so bug ridden it makes termite colonies jealous? From badass token glitches, to raid bosses not dropping loot or crashing your game system when they do, to items falling through the floor or often landing in giant pools of lava so you can't pick them up, to items disappearing, to getting hung up on objects in the environment all the time -- even flat surface vertical walls?! I had to wonder if the game was play-tested at all. Not at all what I was hoping for, it ended up being BL1 with crappier loot, more bugs, and bigger areas.

Edit: And also BL1 had natural character to it, BL2 tries to force it down your throat like "I SAID BALLS, FUNNY RIGHT?, LAUGH NOW!"

I was kind of wondering why the discussion was about gearbox.. the best part was when more people went off about it.

Since I was linked to this topic, I've got to say there are very few games that l lost the interest to play in less than 5 hours, and PoE is one of them.

I actually love Borderlands 2 and have played it much more than Borderlands 1. I also love Path of Exile. I love D2. I also love Corgis and fried squash.

Squash is awesome with a little parmesan cheese.
