When you complete a game marketed mainly as a co-op game in solo, three times, DLCs included, you know that game did something right. For me, the good thing was the hilariousness.
Borderlands 2 plays as few First-person shooter did in my life, because it tried to give its world and campaign the huge plot of a modern AAA video game but while retaining all the weird self-irony of retro shooters like Quake and Doom: the bad guy is planning to use an ancient power to conquer the world and make a huge profit out of it and, to prove how evil he is, he calls you over the phone and starts calling you names. Your reward for a quest is a, predictable but underwhelming, gun? Ok, sorry, how about we make it a gun which shoots swords? Still not enough? Fine, then a gun that shoots swords exploding on impact, and then split in multiple swords that again explode on impact. Are you not entertained yet?
When I started to die because my hands were trembling too much from laughter, Borderlands 2 became a great video game.
The plot and the characters are cliché and stupid, but they make fun of their own clichés and stupidity. They make jokes on the silent protagonist trope, which is you by the way, seemingly there is not a single thing important enough that the game won’t find some way to make fun of itself, and it never ceases even in the expansions, which might have even more quality content than the main game regarding the script writing.
Whilst, regarding the gameplay, you have an endless arsenal of colourful, powerful weapons to choose from. Shoots from the distance, shoots from decent range, shoots from point-blank for maximum blood and comedic effect, just remember to shoot and everything else will take care of itself, probably by cracking a joke after the fight. Enjoy yourself as you are obliterated by super Bosses that drop the ultimate loot, invincible guns with hilariously broken effects, and have fun getting nothing useful because the drop rates are atrocious. MMO-like loot systems are fun, aren’t they?
The game gets tiring after playing the same scenarios and killing the same monsters time and time again, yet for the time it will take you to reach that stage the ride is going to be absolutely worthy the ticket price.

This game is a true Co-op Multiplayer Game! This is awesome with friends, but can also be enjoyed solo if you wish. Awesome game that i love
dw anthony burch I thought your joke was aight 😁
Borderlands 2 is a fantastic video game that has yet to be beaten in its genre. The world of Pandora introduced in BL1 has been expanded to extreme heights, and the characters living within the world have also been given an overhaul. The writing and story in this game are impeccable, allowing for a truly emotional experience in a game filled with fart jokes and surreal stupidity creating a perfect mix of humor and drama.
The guns found across the world are all creative, and the builds available for the player to create are all masterfully crafted to allow anyone to pick up a character and create a legend. While the game-play isn't as refined as it once was, the character builds and an infinite amount of replayability keeps you coming back and wanting more.
Playing this game with friends is an amazing experience on its own. Playing this game co-op has made me and my friends permanent fans of the franchise and has given us some of our favorite gaming memories.
Borderlands 2 is truly a gaming classic and cements itself as the reigning King of the Looter Shooter genre.

I really liked how this game has different characters with different builds. Very fun guns, very satisfying to get the loot that you want. What I don't like though is uvhm. Feels very unbalanced and it forces you to use the slag mechanic 90% of the time and it makes it so that you can't be as flexible with your loadouts
I've played through this game so many times it's hard to count. Story is always good, loot system is always great, and end game is so chaotic it's fantastic.
borderlands é uma fraquia extremamente massante
Rejogando depois de uns anos... Ja tinha zerado umas 2 vezes, joguei um bom tempo em co op tbm. Agora me dediquei a fazer todas as side quests possiveis, tem algumas muito boas, umas massantes, fracas. No geral o jogo envelheceu bem, o estilo gráfico é unico, a variação gigante de armas também eu gosto muito, os dialogos são muito bons, são engraçados, é gostoso atirar nesse jogo, o vilão é bom, a história é boa. Tanto sozinho e em co op, as vezes o jogo fica massante, principalmente se vc vai atras das side quests(pelo menos algumas vai ter que fazer se não o personagem fica fraco). Eu tive preguiça todas as vezes de jogar o modo caçador de sepultura e provavelmente nem vou, mas sei que ainda tem muito pra fazer no jogo ali. Ainda tenho que jogar a DLC tiny tina, provavelmente daqui um tempo, ai darei minhas impressões da DLC la na PAG dela.

Funny silly shooter, a lil grindy but still entertaining.
Only finished Main Campaign and two expansions

A fun sequel that added to the first one in many ways and kept the series interesting.
Günümüze göre fena olmayan co-op, looter-shooter.
One of the best looter shooter games on the market, improving everything over the first game. My favorite character was Zer0.
honestly just a really fun game to play with your friends
i can't give it less than 5, sorry
Ai-je vraiment besoin de préciser que ce second opus est meilleur en tout point que le premier Borderlands ? J’avais des attentes énormes après avoir fini le premier épisode qui était très bon mais qui souffrait de répétitivité autant dans les décors que dans le gameplay. J’ai placé beaucoup d’espoir dans ce second opus en espérant qu’il corrige les défauts majeurs du premier
Eh bah bordel, je dois bien l’avouer: Je ne suis pas déçu, le jeu est allé au delà de mes espérances. Il a corrigé le plus grand reproche que je fais à Borderlands premier du nom, c’est à dire la diversité des zones. Fini les déserts pendant les 9/10 du jeu, place à la diversité avec des zones enneigées, des volcans, des plaines d’eridium, des montagnes verdoyantes avec des panoramas à couper le souffle et aussi quelques déserts qui rappelleront forcément les décors du premier épisode. Mais franchement, je peux pas décrire à quel point j’ai aimé la diversité dans ce jeu. Et le pire dans tout ça c’est qu’il ne se contente pas de régler les problèmes du 1er, il va plus loin. L’ajout de l’éridium en tant que monnaie secondaire est un excellent ajout permettant d’améliorer le nombre de munitions ou d’objets que l’on peut porter sur nous et je dois dire que c’est une manière intelligente de progresser et d’améliorer notre personnage.
Les compétences des différents personnages sont toujours aussi agréables à utiliser et c’est ce qui fait vraiment la force de la série des Borderlands, avec une progression très agréable où on a vraiment l’impression de devenir plus fort à chaque montée de niveau.
En ce qui concerne le scénario, il est dans la continuité du scénario du 1, car il se situe plusieurs années après l’ouverture de l’arche du premier opus, qui a chamboulé pas mal de choses sur Pandore, et nous avons l’arrivée d’un antagoniste plus que charismatique: Le Beau Jack, avec son doublage français de qualité et sa personnalité unique que l’ont entendra tout le long du jeu. Encore une fois, grosse amélioration par rapport au 1 où il n’y avait pas vraiment d’antagoniste à proprement parlé, c’était plus une sorte d’organisation contre laquelle on se battait. Mais dans celui-là c’est complètement différent, on a un réel ennemi, et le scénario est vraiment prenant de bout en bout malgré le côté très second degré du jeu.
Il y a cependant une petite chose qui me chiffonne, c’est l’optimisation sur Switch qui n’est hélas pas aussi bonne que le portage du premier opus. Certes, le jeu est bien + joli et coloré, mais lorsqu’il y a de nombreuses explosions (ce qui arrive souvent si vous possédez un fusil à pompe explosif par exemple) le jeu a des micro freezes qui ne gâche en rien l’expérience mais qui, tout de même, est assez embêtant. Le jeu est aussi bien plus difficile que le premier opus, notamment en ce qui concerne la mission principale où vous allez devoir faire beaucoup de quêtes annexes afin d’atteindre un niveau convenable pour continuer le scénario. Cela peut être très frustrant, mais heureusement les quêtes annexes sont toujours très agréables à faire.
Que faut-il donc retenir de tout ça ? Tout simplement, Borderlands 2 reprend tout ce qui a fait le charme du 1, en poussant toujours plus loin, toujours plus haut et toujours plus fort. Une DA toujours aussi bluffante, une diversité réelle que ce soit dans les décors ou les différentes façons de jouer, une fluidité très bonne malgré les freezes dans certaines situations comme mentionné plus haut. Si il y a bien un jeu que je vous recommande d’essayer, c’est bien celui-là (même si je conseillerais de faire le 1 en premier pour la continuité de l’histoire)
Tout en sachant que tout le jeu peut être fait en coop de A à Z, si vous cherchez un jeu fun en solo, et giga fun avec des amis, foncez.
Sur ce, je retourne sur le jeu pour faire ses DLC. Et dans plusieurs jours, il sera temps de finir cette trilogie Borderlands avec The Pre-Sequel, même si ça sera compliqué de faire mieux que celui-ci.

Gameplay is not aged well but the rest is awesome.
One of my favorites ever.
A FPS with a diablo-like loot system, you shoot bad guys in the face with randomly generated weapons until they die so they drop shinier loot to kill bad guys faster. Simple enough but if we also get 6 playable characters with different builds to choose from that affect your playstyle make the game feel varied enough for a lot of playthroughs (I'm already at 16 and still counting). The only downside is that the guns often feel like airsoft guns, as in lacking impact and power, but that can be easily overlooked.
The world is also great, the sidequests span from challenging semibosses to random errands to stuff like "Shoot this guy in the face" which offers a lot of variety. You can also explore the areas and find something in almost every corner, most likely a hidden special enemy that can drop a legendary weapon. Speaking of legendary weapons, the loot system and the drop ratio make the perfect combination to make that finding that orange stick among all the other junk that a boss can drop oh, SO satisfying.
The humor is right on point, the references are great and the characters are charismatic as fuck, specially the main villain, one of the best of the generation.
The game overall overflows with personality to make it feel truly a unique experience. Lastly, the stoy surprised me a lot, it's not gonna blow your mind or anything but it's a lot better than most shooters, actually good.
Also this version includes all the DLCs and expansions that add a lot of layers to deepen even more the endgame, you can sink maybe 100h until you max out and optimize a character's build.

After doing 2 playthroughs, I can say that this is a fantastic game. Great game play, interesting story, and hilarious characters, including one of my favorite fictional villains ever. I recommend playing it
Es increíble, la historia es increíble, los personajes son buenos, el Gameplay es atrapante y las misiones son una maravilla. Y eso claro sin hablar del maravilloso villano que es Jack el Guapo.
considered full of outdated memes and bad jokes even by contemporary critics. Any joke is a hit or miss, mostly very painful misses, with chuckle worthy jokes spread thinly. Playing feels like a blurry mindless mess despite having somewhat strong rpg building options for a game that is not billed as an rpg shooter and a numerous collection of randomly generated firearms.
Extra half star for the character Kreig being an actually very good example of a melee focused character in a shooter done well.

Amazing gameplay with lots to do for an insane amount of time, one of the best action RPGs ever.
Huge step up from the original, nice as hell
- Can't track more than one quest at a time.
- The map, and especially the inventory system, are horrible on PC. Might be better with a controller.
- You drive vehicles a lot. The vehicles are very floaty, and light. You turn by moving the camera where you want to go, which sucks, but it's also on a delay. You'll get stuck and drive off into walls and off ledges a lot.
- Lots of backtracking and spending ages just running back and forth across levels with enemies way below you.
- Terrible writing and annoying characters. Even if you like it and the cringe humour, you won't get to experience it. It's barely audible over the shooting, and is constantly interrupted.

Dumb fun
I love this game. Aside from the very clear 2012 era juvenile humor, it holds up in every way. One of my favorite games, great looter-shooter. Please play it.
Bland. Doesn't do anything for me.
Sobrevalorado al 1000%
Never thought someone saying they want to eat my babies would make a game so much fun. The game is hilarious and the art-style is cool, with a story and gameplay like this, it's become one of my all-time favorites.
the best borderlands game
