Twas pretty fun for the first time but can get boring at some points

I could zen-veg out and play this game for hours. Almost felt MMO-like at points. An enjoyable game, pretty different from its sequels but not in a bad way.

Mi error fue que conocí la saga con la segunda entrega, quede tan fascinado que quise jugar todos los títulos. Lamentablemente me di cuenta que al ser la primera entrega, flaquea en mucho aspectos, los controles no son responsivos, el combate es aburrido y lento. Batalle mucho para terminarlo, fue por compromiso más que nada.

a decently fun looter shooter. lacks the variety of the other entries.

My friend and I used to refer to this as Rubberbandalands because we kept lagging all over the place.


This game has about as much story as One Piece has good pacing: none.

I'm not usually a fan of FPS but a unique gimmick or mechanic can catch my eye. The use of an RPG leveling system combined with the story and humor definitely makes Borderlands different from the rest of the genre. The series is famous for its humor, look, and gameplay all of which combine to create a great experience. This isn't the best installment in the series but it's certainly worth playing if you're looking for a different kind of FPS or RPG.

The perfect phrase to describe it is mindless shooting and looting. It does the job and the art style for sure is unique however it doesn't really offer that much.

meh, its the first game in one of my favorite franchises, but its definitely not my favorite (i put it on shelved because i still need to beat some of the dlc)

You walk about shooting things and that's fine by me.

Definitivamente marcó un antes y un despues en el mundillo de los jueguillos del mismo palo, se saca la pollica en todo lo q falla el bl2

this game aged horribly. unresponsive and boring compared to sequels. back in the day this was probably like a 4 tho

Me gusta mucho, pero que sea un juego cooperativo no es excusa para diseñar mapas tan aburridos.

I strongly dislike shooters that tie damage to weapon stats and then just drown you in mediocre options until you get one weapon with better stats that feels worse to use, but you use it anyway because otherwise the enemies will take an extra 30 minutes to kill.

El principio es aburridísimo, clase maestra de cómo NO hacer un onboarding

Go to point A and shoot, rinse and repeat. It's boring. Never saw the appeal of these games

Feels really empty, somehow.

wish i played it on my ps3 but it was amazing getting to play this on my ps4, claptrap i still hate you but also love you.

While Im charitable to the fact that this game has First Draft Syndrome, its impossible to ignore how the ugly Brown Aesthetic of late 2000s video games merged with this austere desert looter shooter to form the most rancid vibes known to man. It is so mind-numbingly bare that it almost feels like a surrealist project, some David Lynch psyop where theres just an uncomfortable amount of dead air.

And in some ways thats interesting, its like Borderlands 1 is a peek into an alternate reality. Its a much more dismal, less successful reality to be clear, and this is something that can only be appreciated retrospectively; its difficult to regard Borderlands as the “starting point” of the series when its such a distant relative to what the series is at this point (and really its estranged relationship with the series is the only worthwhile thing about it worth talking about)
