A huge disappointment. I genuinely like the Borderlands series — the first game, the second, and even the third. I deliberately waited before buying Borderlands 4 to give the developers time to fix the launch issues, but even now the loading times on higher graphics settings are painfully slow. And people complain about loading screens in Bethesda games... The open-world design actively hurts the series. Everything feels shallow, weightless, and repetitive, and the game becomes boring surprisingly quickly. Until now, I bought every new Borderlands game without a second thought. After this, if there is another sequel, buying it will no longer be an automatic decision. I rarely write reviews, but this was disappointing enough that I felt I had to.
Lousy performance, nearly €200 in DLC costs, boring—reminds me of EA and Ubisoft. Gearbox and Borderlands are done.
my old ford runs better than this game, could not play because my friend with 5070 got sub 30 fps
Game looks like it WOULD be great, but fails. Game crashes, before it starts. Game has frozen me without a menu to begin the game, Game has a line appearing in the middle of the screen during movement, with or without frame generation. Default settings boil your machine (i9-1400k, RTX 5070Ti, 96Gb Ram), and had to reduce frame rate to prevent overheating. The game is not usable in this form, it causes more frustration than enjoyment.
Si lo tuviera que definir con una palabra seria "DECEPCIÓN"; Estoy intentando completar la campaña por mi FOMO de completar los juegos que empiezo, pero me esta costando horrores. Es considerablemente peor a sus precuelas en casi todos los aspectos, lo único que puedo destacar es que mejora la movilidad del personaje, cosa totalmente necesaria debido a la Innecesaria inmensidad del mapa. No entiendo la obsesión de hacer que todos los juegos ahora sean Mundo abierto o Roguelikes para hacer que de forma "artificial" sean mas extensos/Re jugables; este es un perfecto ejemplo de como hacer que en mundo abierto pierde mas que gana: Largas distancias sin personalidad y totalmente genéricas. Otro punto negativo que me es irrelevante pero detesto para quienes si les gusto el juego, es que una vez compras el juego base no te deja mejorar al Deluxe, edición que incluye los DLC (Pésimos al parecer).
how is this steamdeck verified when it runs at 20fps? what a joke...
This doesn't even feel like a Borderlands game anymore. The character and story are the most boring thing I have ever seen, the humor is completely gone, every character is either annoying or uninteresting, every area looks pretty much the same with so many re-used assets, no more music that fits the area, no iconic soundtrack, DLC's are just another assets dump with a new hat, end-game content is just laughable, empty exploration for chests with useless weapons, weapons are a downgrade from BL3 and worst offence of all, it's just boring to play. R.I.P Borderlands
This game FEELS like it was released in an ALPHA state. There are a ton of bugs, there are so many poorly thought out UI issues, progression is split between characters, poorly optimized, so on and so forth. If you can endure all of that, there are moments of fun, but you truly have to be content with mediocrity.
Unoptimised slop.
a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ disgrace to the borderlands series
