My son talked about that this week, said a new raid boss is coming. I am convinced now to try. What really put me of is the shit Randy was talking after release.
Eh, hundreds of other people worked on the game, too. Borderlands is not Randy. I'll give you something to look for as you attempt to sink your teeth in: the skills and skill trees are sort of based around a meta game. If you choose to engage with its systems and optimize, you're not just mindlessly shooting stuff. For instance, I played the Gravitar, who gets feedback loops going around "entangling" enemies; by endgame, my ability was basically never on cooldown, and I had incentives to pick weaker guns because they fed into my gameplan better. My friend that I co-oped the game with played the Siren and had a build where he could loop Kill Skills into one another so they're all proc-ing all the time. I hope you like it! (The story's not great though.)
