Buy this game if you want a legit laugh

Not really a 'bad' game though it says a lot that I started this many times before finally sitting down to play the base game through to the end; I also didn't want to continue after I'd done the main story, partly due to the jarring nature of the DLC and the fact it didn't really make sense in context. I tried, but quickly realised that I wasn't having fun, so stopped. There are definitely issues with the game, if you're playing Nisha as a sniper (which I was) then her ultimate is basically pointless in the latter half of the game, due to an old bug which stops the tracking from working properly. Enemies also clip through the floors and ceilings frequently, and they can shoot through walls; at one point I got stuck at a resurrection point because it was spawning me into a room in which an enemy was shooting me through the floor. One of the bosses got stuck in a glitch state that I couldn't recover from, which meant the fight went from being insanely tough to trivially easy. Pacing is all over the place, sometimes it really feels like a grindfest and if you're playing this solo, it suffers from the Borderlands problem of everything being relatively easy except for the bosses, at which point you have to stop and grind out a couple of levels (listen to an audio book or something) before you can continue. The last two bosses were also weirdly easy compared to the two before it, which confused me immensely but contributed to the feeling of pacing being *off*. Space is... annoying? I understand that the developers wanted the game to feel like a new experience compared to Borderlands 2, but in reality the O2 elements just felt like a gimmick for the sake of a gimmick, and it would have been better as an expansion pack or DLC for Borderlands 2, rather than being a standalone game. On the whole, the Pre-Sequel isn't bad, but it does feel like a fan-fiction attempt to write more humour in the style of Borderlands 2, which doesn't do it credit as it comes across as shallow and 'so random' in the worst way. It bridges a gap and answers some questions, but I'd wager most gamers would get a better experience watching a speed run on YouTube, or skipping to the movies. Still, in hindsight it's better than Borderlands 3, and I haven't even bothered with 4; so I suppose time has looked more kindly on the forgotten step-child of the Borderlands series. It would have been better if the developers hadn't just dropped support for it when it became clear it wasn't going to be as popular as the second instalment though.
