This game received a lot of negative attention when it first came out. I had just finished Borderlands 2 for the first time when this came out, and I was excited.
I played through the entire game, enjoyed it a lot, only to see how this game was getting slammed online.
While I do agree Borderlands 2 was better, this is by no means a big downgrade or a bad product.
It takes what Borderlands 2 does, and improves on a lot of aspects, while introducing new guns, ideas, bosses and environments. The story is good, and characters are fun, but Borderlands 2 did this better. There aren't many characters that stick with you for a long time after you complete this, unlike BL2.
That said, the guns are generally more fun, classes are crazier, and this game features my favorite weapon type in any Borderlands game, the Glithced guns from the Claptastic Voyage. The soundtrack is memorable, and it's great to learn more about the backstory of Handsome Jack.
Overall a great addition to the game, and the final good mainline borderlands game.
