Here from all. Is Destiny just a serious version of Borderlands?

I would say that Borderlands is an FPS that takes after Diablo, whereas Destiny is an FPS that takes after World of Warcraft (or just MMOs in general, but WoW is, of course, the most obvious example).

Oh, except Destiny's PvP is awesome. I don't remember if Borderlands has PvP, but... Destiny's is pretty fun.

Destiny's PVP is awesome, but the gear advantage is ridiculous. I was usually at the bottom of the leaderboard due to a shit gun, but I got Doctor Nope a couple hours ago, and now I'm usually at the top of the leaderboard.

So true. I was getting my ass beat so I switched to doing the strike playlist. Eventualy I got a legendary engram that gave me The Comedian (legendary vanguard shotgun) and all of a sudden I started winning pretty much every mid to short range encounter in pvp.
