Bought it on console when it came out -- found the writing unfunny and horribly irritating, the voice acting and visual design merely abrasive when it didn't slide all the way into being directly unpleasant, the reward mechanics unengaging, and the gunplay mildly diverting but not particularly special. Bought it on PC years later at a huge discount, and discovered to my astonishment that I liked the gunplay a little better on PC.
The gameplay is excellent, the worldbuilding/art style is spectacular but everything about this game is too nihilistic for me to truly enjoy it. I think there's a lot to appreciate from a technical and stylistic perspective, but personally I despise the grungy atmosphere and disgusting implications of Pandora and its denizens.
A falta de amigos pra jogar esse jogo é o grande motivo de eu nunca ter zerado ele, desde que zerei L4D2 cheguei a essa conclusão, impossível jogar um jogo desse sozinho, não é a mesma coisa, são jogos diferentes e esse jogo quando é jogado sozinho não é o mesmo jogo de jogar com amigos, nenhum jogo do gênero é a mesma coisa quando jogo Single e Multi.
we played until we got to see the bartender's panties. that is my true ending. everything else about this game is boring as shit. an rpg fps should be way more fun than bullet sponge boss fights and pointless side quests. the panties were more than enough reward for putting up with the boredom though. i will remember forever. #cumstyle
- Builds on the first game, feels more up-to-date
- Tighter controls, more to do & more zany characters and locations
- All the DLC was great, no DLC as bad as the Moxxi DLC in Borderlands
- So many guns & variations, it encouraged me to test & try different types
- Has a bitter feel somewhat as I played it on PC back in the day, and lost a day or two of progress which made me very much lose interest
- Went back to it years later, started from scratch and finally completed it
