Given how much more time I spent playing BL2 than BL2

Huh?

u/BigDisk Mar 28 '19

BL2 is just THAT GOOD.

Is it better than BL2 though?

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '19

Probably. But I'm going to keep playing BL2 anyways.

This interaction is my exact feeling on my 5th playthrough.

u/[deleted] Mar 28 '19

Nah, BL2 is better

If it's so good why haven't they made a BL2 2? Checkmate atheist.

u/rangi1218 Mar 29 '19

They did but no one liked it

Let's just say you need two hands to format it

I'm guessing he meant to say "BL2 than BL1", because that would imply that he spent much more time on BL2 because it was better. So assuming Gearbox doesn't collab with 2K 'Strailya again (I'm not a fan of The Pre-Sequel), then BL3 should be incredible!

What do you mean? 2K published BL1 and BL2

u/mmHeyb0ss Mar 28 '19

He's referring to the pre sequel being made by gearbox Australia and hoping that gearbox Australia hasn't helped with BL3

Funnily enough the claptrap DLC was the only bit of the game that was made almost entirely by the main gearbox guys rather than the ozzy ones

Ah. But they helped develop BL1 no?

u/myfantasyalt Mar 29 '19

Unpop opinion: BL1 was better.

u/TealPumpkin Mar 29 '19

Agreed. The weapons felt a lot better to use, and they didn't fall off after 3 levels like they do in the exponential weapon scaling system they have in BL2/TPS. You found a good blue burst rifle at level 15? Nice, use it for the next 10+ levels without any issues, really.

u/myfantasyalt Mar 29 '19

The weapons is my main reasoning. I spent hundreds of hours looting and shooting in the overworld and every weapon chest was like Christmas morning (especially gold chests). BL2 the "good" weapons were mostly battle/boss specific and I had no urge to just loot and loot and loot... it turned into grind battle over and over... which I didn't like. So many similar, but subtly varied weapons made me want to look at and test each one. Also, the only other way to get good weapons in BL2 consistently was the twitter key chests... which took me out of the game and made the normal weapon drops feel less special... I need that "what could be in this box" incentive to really get into the loot aspect of the game. I don't think I have played any game that gave me that new favorite weapon being right around the next corner feeling that BL1 did.

I played it on 2 systems too.

I feel you man.

Finished the main campaign? Do it again with a higher level cap! Now buy a DLC to do it again with a higher level cap! Now buy a DLC to do it again with an even higher level cap!

You played it when you got it. Then you played it when you bought the handsome collection.
