Borderlands 2 was a much anticipated title, and it delivered pretty well. The story continues with new characters and class types. Expect to see the Siren again but the Hunter is gone. If you BUY them you can have the Mechromancer and Psycho.
The graphics were, as unusual, cartoon-like and again I was used to it in about five minutes. The environments were a lot better in most areas, having added more colors. However, as with BL1 they were pretty drab.
You can expect more than one vehicle type in this game including a vehicle that can fit all four players at once, and some interesting vehicle arms (weapons).
Skins: Oh how I loved and hated the skins of this game. I love the idea we can have and find skins. I hated that most of them were really ugly! I mean really ugly. Horrible color combo's! Thank God I couldn't see myself most of the time. As usual in new games, if you pay you can get better costumes. I really would have liked my Siren outfit to have had more styles and not just one style with a bunch of ugly color combinations. You can also get skins for the cars, most of which I think were ugly and drab but a few were neat looking. I really would have rather just been able to choose my own colors for my skins.
As with before, most of the grenades were useless, except sticky, homing, singularity and transfusion. Otherwise they almost always miss the target! Guns in this game were pretty disappointing. I think they needed to have concentrated less on special keys for the big chest from twitter for weapons and more on a decent balance of guns in the game. Most of the guns are garbage. Once again there is almost never any good weapons to buy, even if you have money. Even the specials of the day are mostly crap.
The turtle shield! UGH. almost every single shield in the game is a turtle shield, meaning it will give you more armor but takes away more health. I hated these shields. It was irritating. Especially since in this game you cannot carry any health with you but only buy it and take it at Dr. Zed's machines. This left my character flashing and close to death way too many times.
Missions were pretty good. Of course they made you do a LOT of backtracking to the same areas but that's the way it is I guess. I was not fond of any of the timed missions. Many of the optional missions seemed to have a very low reward for the work required and most of the prizes were junk. One very serious issue I had with this game is the maps being overtly large and windy, cluttered, disorganized etc, to the point where even with diamonds there were some places I just got lost over and over again and couldn't find a way out or to the object of the mission.
Updates: The updates to this game were upsetting, I had to update it 3 times and each was over 500 mb. I thought that was excessive.
Even with it's flaws most of the game was still fun so I enjoy playing it.
