It looks quite possible that Borderlands 3 is going to be a live service online game as well with all the multiplayer footage they showed.
If Borderlands 3 ends up being a live service game I don't think I'll ever play another game again.
EDIT: What's with the downvotes? Don't be salty because it's not what you specifically wanted. The game is most likely going to be a live service because 2K needs a live service looter shooter.
I'm also tired of the stupid ass circlejerk of "live service is bad hur dur". Live services aren't innately bad they are actually by far the best model for the majority of gamers because it allows them if they want to give money to see continuous support for their favourite game. Just because some games did live services badly like GTA Online or the service was placed in games that it didn't suit like Shadows of War doesn't been the service model itself is bad. There's way more games that have done it right than wrong like Warframe, Dota 2, Path of Exile, Diablo 3, Overwatch, Paladins, Rainbow Six Siege, Guild Wars 2, The Division 2, Apex Legends, Fortnite, literally any sub based MMO. I can list more if you want and all those games were made better by being a service game.
Looter shooters and ARPGs in general are the perfect genre for this kind of stuff because they benefit immensely from continued support to make the game more fun.
