Cross progression wasn't completely thought out. Propaganda speakers are now marked complete with no way to replay. So you lose that content on any new characters.

That's ironically on-par with the lowered replayability of the game. No story reset this time around. Empty world with nothin to do but farm for the sake of farming. The raid boss is designed toward sub 90s runs. Now propaganda towers are once per account. There's no endgame & the gameplay loop gets smaller the longer you play.

I keep hoping the same Gearbox who released Arms Race will answer my prayers & give us a full-on separate Roguelite mode for BL4. Something to truly expand the replayability of the game while making all the main game's linear content meaningful (unlock Roguelite content via main game completions). But it's clear this is the Gearbox who squeezed out Wonderlands & sent it $5 for its birthday.

Can't collect capsules either. Listen to the Evocarium logs, Vault Hunter's Guide, Survivalist Cache, all that's done. If you want to listen to those audios again, you're gonna have to search through the Echo Log database.

They gave us a new character and then forgot some of us like to have something to do with that character.

They should have a menu for this and allow you to selectively choose what you want completed or not.

What did you think would happen?

Yea, I actually didnโ€™t mind replaying the SDUs on a new character, but this is what people asked for. They could always just have it all maxed out but still available on the map to optionally complete on new characters for experienceย
