I originally played through every Borderlands game back in 2019 and I don't know how to describe how PEAK many of the games in this series are. But lemme talk about this one. Original Borderlands obviously set the pace for every Borderlands to follow. It has crude humor, plenty of gore, and the style of the game is unique. The game itself feels good to play, with the various weapons, the specific character skills, and grenades...it is SO SATISFYING to mow down enemies as you charge through bandit camps, caves full of Monsters, and ancient ruins with strange being protecting an ancient vault. My issues with Borderlands 1 is really just the storytelling. I find that the pacing of the game is pretty bad and then of course, there's the ending which just felt a bit "meh". I have beaten this game twice now and it never really got any better from a storytelling standpoint. But the writing feels a lot better for the DLC. The DLC of this game is so fun. Zombies, Ninja Assassin Robots, and a General bent of seeing the light. It's dark and funny all the way around. I would def play this game again. Also, replay-ability is good only in that you can choose other characters with different skills. Many people say the game is best played with others but I have just as much fun playing these games solo.
Fix the game Randy. Between FPS drops and bugs its embarrassing for an "enhanced" edition.
Better than the others, this gem has a somber original voice you wont find anywhere else.
Mi è piaciuta sicuramente la storia ben scritta e la difficolta media del gioco rispetto al secondo capitolo. consigliato per un neofita.
Borderlands highkey killed my aunt but that highkey alright
Ein ganz entspannter Loot-Shooter. Kann man sich auf jeden Fall geben, obwohl Borderlands 1 ein etwas älteres Game ist. Man merkt, dass die Steuerung sich ein wenig clunky anfühlt, aber alles andere ist top. Im Co-op wird man definitiv noch viel mehr Spaß haben!
By far and away the best title in the series.
The game with endless fun. Even if you played the game before when you play it again it seems like you always discover something new and can play it differently. Not a lot of games are like that and that is why I recommend it. I think I have received the enhanced edition for free as I have already owned the original GOTY edition and purchased the Pandora Box edition before this was released.
Coop didn't work well. Voice Chat causes lag/rubberbanding. Weapon slots got locked to nothing while making their guns disappear. Minimap disappears between zones. Played and finished the non-enhanced version instead.
Game is absolutely broken. The devs never fixed the memory leak. They don't care, they just care about stealing your data and milking money from you and Randy is a terrible CEO.
