127G file size, still ♥♥♥♥ performance, can't even compile the shaders, it tried 3 times. This is embarrassing and you should be embarrassed with the game you made.
It's just not a borderlands game and its not worth the price.
Not even getting 60 frames with a 5070, the worst-optimized game of all time
started he game for the first time: compiling shaders. oh, ok. after what it felt like an eternity worth of time, the game disappears from my screen and some cmd line like windows appears and the game restarted and i bet you didn't guess this one: compiling shaders. again. tf?! do devs nowadays think gamers have an eternity worth of time? yeah, back to games that actually respect time as it should be. EDIT: i have decided to give it another go and this time it compiled shaders in a matter of just few seconds. ok, lets goooo. after a while i had to go and quit the game but exiting the game rendered my pc unresponsive, not even ctrl+alt+del could help. luckily they've invented computers with on/off switch - i'm smart right? lets check the event viewer: Critical, Kernel-Power, (70368744177664),(2) whatever tf that means. this game is like "either you play me or not"
Randy promised a premium experience. The only thing that was premium was the amount of money he tried to charge.

I've been a Borderlands fan for years. Whenever a new Borderlands game comes out, I know I'm about to lose countless hours because they're usually some of the most fun looter shooters ever made. That's why this is so incredibly disappointing. The performance of Borderlands 4 is, without exaggeration, some of the worst I've ever experienced in a AAA game. Even running it on one of the most powerful gaming rigs money can buy, the game is a technical disaster. Constant stuttering, inconsistent frame pacing, hitching, frame drops—you name the technical issue, it's here. It completely destroys the experience. This isn't a minor inconvenience or a few bugs. This is a game that simply should never have been released in this state. What's even more insulting is the price. Charging a premium price for a game that performs this badly is unacceptable. Then asking players to spend even more money on DLC on top of that just adds insult to injury. Developers and publishers need to be held accountable for releasing unfinished products. There should be real consequences for shipping games in this condition. Consumers shouldn't be expected to pay full price and then wait months while developers finish the game after release. At some point, it stops feeling like customers are paying to beta test a product. The developers should be ashamed of releasing Borderlands 4 in this state. I genuinely cannot believe this was considered acceptable. Unfortunately, I can't even refund the game because I purchased it through another retailer and redeemed it on Steam. If I could, I would. This is such a heartbreaking disappointment because underneath all the technical problems, I can see a fantastic Borderlands game trying to shine through. But the performance is so catastrophically bad that I simply can't recommend it to anyone. Do better. This has become far too common across the games industry, and players deserve better than this.
Almost a full year after release, game still runs like ♥♥♥♥. Horribly optimized
This game is really, really bad. I don't write reviews still. Guys, do not ever, ever touch this nonsense. Played all Borderlands, wow, this one ,,,
Absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Borderlands 1 will forever be the GOAT
