Borderlands 2 could have been a great game.
Instead, it was one of the worst I've ever played. It is the most overrated thing ever sold outside of a Starbucks. I invite you to also realize that this game is hot stinking garbage.
Absolute shit AI. Instead of AI, they made 99% of the mobs bullet sponges and the weapons were underwhelming unless you followed them on Twitter. An entire minute to kill some giant asshole, but wait, that's a trash mob! You're gonna see him several hundred thousand times more! Reptitive does not begin to describe Borderlands 2 combat. This wouldn't be so bad if the enemies had decent AI at least to make it interesting...
AI was so terrible they had to spawn mobs behind and under, or send insane amounts of them from all directions - ESPECIALLY BEHIND YOU - to compensate. That's not challenging or creative, that's lazy and stupid. Core gameplay should not be a laborious task. You telling me that I can, after an hour of pounding it with shit weapons, down mega-armored vehicles and bad dudes, but this one fucking hut - where I know some asshole is going to pop out of as soon as I step 10 feet past it - is fucking invulnerable to destruction? I can't throw a grenade in that door where I know in exactly two seconds like four hundred dudes are going to pop out?
AND THE WRITING! FUCK! Hey, let's tell two variations of the same joke for like 20 GODDAMNED HOURS!
Joke 1: "X thing can't possibly happen! That would be bad! I'm so random!" <faggot robot that isn't funny more explodes> X thing proceeds to happen.
Joke 2: "Y thing that we need to happen has got to happen or else we're fucked!" <faggot robot explodes while somehow breaking the fourth wall> Y thing doesn't happen. Cue "zany" consequence.
OH FUCK! MY SIDES! Borderlands 1 was pretty great. Borderlands 2 was one of the biggest missed gaming opportunities ever. As it is, it is one of the worst games ever. Game of the Year, my dick.
What's your most overrated game?
You can blame Anthony Burch for the monumental drop in quality for the writing in Borderlands 2 compared to 1.

Yeah, that guy ought to never work again. What a fucking hack. Borderlands 1 at least was somewhat amusing and the guns were actually fun. That was a really good game. How the fuck do you screw up the basic formula that much? Why did ANYONE think this was a good game?

I actually liked that game a lot. Some things like the bullet sponges ennemies did bother me a bit though but in the end, it was still a good experience. Might be because I did it all in its entirety in like one week with a friend who was staying in my home in local coop so that helps.
Didn't realize the writing was worst than in the first game, might be because the french dubs are absolutely top notch.

Get over yourself you fuck, game had funny moments too.
I will never forgive those fucks forkilling Bloodwing

Bloodwing was a bitch. There was nothing special about it except some character loved the shit out of it. It was awful.

Tiny Tina was the only funny thing in the entire game. It was the only point where they broke away from the one of two jokes formula that was so awful and predictable. I'm sorry that you have bad taste.
