I’m in this boat. I didn’t hate BL3. The story was meh, the antagonists were unlikeable, but they were supposed to be, so good job there.
Overall, I enjoyed my time with it.
I tried to go back to BL1/2 and was hit in the face by all the usability issues, since it seems like they added mouse and keyboard support as an afterthought. BL3 is one of few borderlands games I can stand the UI enough to actually play.
My expectations from BL4 were/are small. Better mouse/kB support (or at least on par with BL3), and more story. I could give a fuck about the graphics, and most of the “loot” is randomly generated vendor trash. Unless it has a name and a gold title, most people couldn’t give any fewer shits about it. So all they literally had to do was mix up the gold tier weapons, and work on the plot line.
I see they fucked with the engine, otherwise it wouldn’t be so bloody unstable.
Oh well. I’ll wait for the goty/master collection/turbo Max ultra digital edition or whatever, that has the game and includes all the nickel and dime bullshit they’re going to try to get people to buy… Then wait for it to go on sale.
They’re not special. They’re going to end up enshittifying the game. It’s happening. I’m just going to stand on the side lines and watch.
