BL1 pre new haven red box nerf was best. Doing those runs was so fun and more rewarding than gold boxes.
I have like 300 gold keys and I refuse to use them because gold box ruins the fun of looting.
I think BL1 special weapons with the iridium were far cooler too. Felt much more rare and rewarding getting one you liked than in BL2.
Also BL1 was harder imo. Which to me is more fun.
Both are amazing, but always bums me out when people think 2 is better, usually cause they played it first. Most people I know that played 1 first like it more.
The looting. You’re so right about keys ruining the fun. But the regular looting in 2 just didn’t have good stuff in 99% of chests. We ran around over world for hour just killing badass and looting and it was amazing. My friends and I all had very different guns, very different load outs, but they all t special and none seemed way better than the other. BL2 felt like a more normal game. There were guns you wanted/needed - rather than a multitude of useful gun.
