and second, it's like you guys played a totally different game to me. Borderlands SUCKED.
Yeah, I can agree there, it's Halo 2 ending bad. You could do a satisfying ending AND cue up a sequel without having to abruptly end, and then do some arbitrary random thing like make Claptrap evil for some reason. But I got my loot on in the game, and if the DLC is pumped out on a consistent basis, I may still hold on to my copy for awhile.
No, everyone else went into it without some ass-backwards vendetta against Gearbox, without already deciding it sucked before playing it.
The game wasn't perfect, there was a decent amount of moderate flaws and a good amount of minor flaws. But it was a good game. It took something RELATIVELY unfamiliar - role-playing shooters - and really did both halves well.
