I've never understood the massive success of this game franchise. I understand the appeal and that many people find it fun, but it's just never been all that great, IMO. There are so many much better titles out there. I'm guessing it's early success plus huge advertising budget and/or paid-for reviews.
I like them, personally, and there's absolutely nothing else that scratches the "I want to play Borderlands" itch. The quality varies a lot by the game, though.
I'm in the same boat. And borderlands is way better than destiny 2 in my opinion. I really love the gameplay of 3 and 4. I can see myself easily getting my money's worth out of it.
I've never really understood the comparisons between Destiny 2 and Borderlands, honestly. I like both but my brain puts them in very different boxes. Same thing with Warframe.
