Overall a great game that still holds up today. More interesting to play than a lot of modern looter shooters and is great for co-op. Below is mainly how I felt going through the base game.

Gameplay
+ Brilliant story (especially compared to 3) with enjoyable main and side quests.
+ Good Perk tree and easy to respec.
- The gunplay can be frustrating at times as some sights can have horrible reticles.
- Guns just feel very 'flat' and impactless in general. Felt like there was a lack of variety as well where only a handful of weapons felt viable.
- No mantling (minor issue as this was added in BL3)

Graphics
+ Good artstyle and still holds up well today.

Technical
+ Game ran perfectly fine on max settings with an RTX 3070 (160+ fps).
- Mouse sensitivity was way too high even on the lowest settings. Had to use a 3rd party tool to get it lower.
- When setting the game to offline, it doesn't save on that setting when rebooting the game.
