Borderlands Game of the Year Enhanced

I originally played through every Borderlands game back in 2019 and I don't know how to describe how PEAK many of the games in this series are. But lemme talk about this one. Original Borderlands obviously set the pace for every Borderlands to follow. It has crude humor, plenty of gore, and the style of the game is unique. The game itself feels good to play, with the various weapons, the specific character skills, and grenades...it is SO SATISFYING to mow down enemies as you charge through bandit camps, caves full of Monsters, and ancient ruins with strange being protecting an ancient vault. My issues with Borderlands 1 is really just the storytelling. I find that the pacing of the game is pretty bad and then of course, there's the ending which just felt a bit "meh". I have beaten this game twice now and it never really got any better from a storytelling standpoint. But the writing feels a lot better for the DLC. The DLC of this game is so fun. Zombies, Ninja Assassin Robots, and a General bent of seeing the light. It's dark and funny all the way around. I would def play this game again. Also, replay-ability is good only in that you can choose other characters with different skills. Many people say the game is best played with others but I have just as much fun playing these games solo.

This is a complete rewrite of my review after getting to max level, beating the raid boss and doing most of the achievements. The game is decent! Compared to the original non-enhanced it has a few advantages, but a few disadvantages. This wasn't a great remaster at all, it's about 50/50 whether you should buy this or the original. The biggest flaw with this version is a memory leak that a majority of players experience (including myself), after 30 minutes to an hour, your game will start lagging like hell and you'll need to restart the game. There are ways to fix this supposedly but none of the fixes worked for me. The base game is decent, the tutorial section is long as heck though, it's definitely a lot slower than Bl2, which I'd recommend as your first Borderlands game of choice over this one. Most NPC speech happens through quest description text, and your playable character has almost no character as opposed to later games. The biggest selling point of this game IMO is the gun parts system, it seems simplified in future games for better or worse. The DLCs vary, the first one (being the first DLC made for the borderlands franchise) is okay, there's not really any good loot sources, limiting reason to play beyond the first time. The second one introduced pearlescents, as well as some good characters like Knoxx and Athena- BUT while it was okay in the first DLC, theres no fast travel in this one either.. meaning you drive, drive, drive, drive, walk, walk, drive.. there's a lot of travel, it sucks. Final DLC is cool lore-wise, but there's some real bad audio glitches. Overall the game is pretty good, the remaster added some good stuff, but falls short in a lot of ways. Still might be the best way to play BL1. It definitely shows its age and the remaster did little to address this, sadly.

Ta bien, pero me falta más memosidad. Espero que los siguientes sean más cómicos.

Game is absolutely broken. The devs never fixed the memory leak. They don't care, they just care about stealing your data and milking money from you and Randy is a terrible CEO.
