    Personally, I love them both. BL2 was amazing with the story and DLCs and general fantastic dialogue. BL3 had the gameplay mechanics topped, it felt amazing playing Zane and just speeding like a demon in the game and use all action skills. it is Gameplay VS Whole Experience. BL2 wins with the general story but BL3 wins with it´s DLCs and absolutely fantastic gameplay. Love them both. Tho one thing that BL2 wins with is, it has no Ava.

    I came back to BL3 after while of not playing, and tried to get back into endgame, and mayhem levels feel bad. I sped run to 11 as fast as I could cause the clutter was too much. I feel like a lot of your criticism is very valid compared to the general “BL3 bad” sentiment that occupies most all discussion. Annoints especially, getting to mayhem 11 on a new character I had a mayhem 2 monarch with the right annoying that carried my farm all the way will I was geared up to 10.

    Say what you want, its all opinion, not fact. Bl3 is 5 years old and also still gets played/streamed/watched as much or more than Bl2. A lot of influential content creators are stuck on Bl2 out of nostalgia & it became really 'cool' to ride the Bl3 hate train, but the newer game has Bl2 beat on so many things that the argument is kinda silly. You like Bl2 better, ok, it doesn't make it fact. & it certainly doesn't mean Bl3 is a failure. In fact it's a testament to how good Bl3 is that it continues its popularity 5 years on through all the unnecessary negativity from influential 'forever bl2' content creators. You can like both, you can love the whole series, like I do. Having a favorite game in the series doesn't mean you gota hate on the other one(s).

    I think the reason play at different OP levels is because of OP leveled gear. They need a difficulty scaling that doesn't have any mayhem/op leveled gear at all. This is the one redeeming quality of wonderlands, although they fudged it a bit. Voltaic gear, etc. Just only a few higher level pieces of gear unlocked as you progress.

    • @St4rkiller04
      @St4rkiller04  7 месяцев назад

      I think that is a great point that gear needs to scale. Sometimes you need to farm for so much loot inbetween OP levels that it makes it super redundant. I like the idea of OP level progression as it makes you feel like you earned the difficulty, but it definitely needs to be tweaked.

    Modifiers aren’t bad. There’s plenty of them and are there for people who are bored as hell. But I will say they’re a more neutral element in the game because they are not all too great either if you’re trying to re-roll a hundred different times for a max-difficulty combination or a perfect-cheese difficulty. There should’ve been an option to just turn off all the modifiers that help the player and grant even higher rewards as a result, but other than that, that’s really the only thing that should’ve been added to the Positive section. Partial L take by 35%.
    But man… Action Skill scaling with Mayhem is such a love hate relationship. I guess the devs made it that way to be a bridge to the OP10-like structure the most hardcore of the hardcore players love, but it also ends up being a miniature Fight For Your Life in itself if you’re a Moze player like me. I don’t know what they could’ve done to fix this honestly, this seemed like a losing fight since the beginning.

    You did a good job summing up these points. It appears most people can agree the story in 3 doesn't live up to the classics, while really liking the gameplay. As for me, the gameplay in 3 is "decent", but it just feels too "overwhelming". This is how I sum it up: The classics can be much more difficult while feeling much more "laid back" at the same time (if that makes sense) Again, it appears a lot of people prefer the gameplay in 3, but unlike most, the Pre-Sequel is my favorite, followed by 2, 1, and 3 being my least favorite.

      I agree the scenery/level design in 3 is quite good. Many would would probably disagree with my other major complaint, but it involves the skill trees. In 3, (other than the action skill itself) each skill-point doesn't feel quite as straight-forward like in the classics -- pinpointing exactly what each skill point is doing. This is coming from someone who never really got into RPG or skill-tree type games, so my opinion here may not be relevant to a lot of people. Maybe I just haven't played enough of 3, but in the classics, I could "feel" the benefit of each skill point, where as in 3, the skill-points feel too "all over the place" or something like that.

    I'd much rather play BL2, even today. 3 plays a little better and looks a little better, but thats the bare minimum you would expect from a sequel years later. In terms of the creative vision they had, it feels like all the passion left the company. A lot of the game, particularly the story, locations and character work is so phoned in. Its like the higherups at gearbox just sent down the orders to do a numbered BL game and no one had an actual idea for the story and didn't seem to know what they were doing at times with the structure of things when it comes to small details that really ruin the overall game for me like the playthroughs, the difficulty, the drops ect.
    BL3 will not have the same longevity as 2 and its not even close. BL2 was an instant classic for its time. BL3 is mediocre and already forgotten. I don't think I'll boot it up again at this point. Meanwhile I keep the handsome collection on my switch for killing time traveling, and I mainly play 2 on that because it has the best balance of content, mechanics, drops, story and endgame. I'm worried for 4. The series may be lost in the vortex of all the other modern looting and leveling action games, which is sad since it arguably helped start the trend of adding those elements to an established genre.

      Yeah I had that same problem in 2. Not necessarily where characters won’t shut up (even though that’s true no one shuts up in that game) but it’s the fact that before I can reach endgame I have to do chores for the crimson raiders. But that’s not enough is it no I have to turn on tvhm and do it all again. Still not enough I have to turn on uvhm and do it all again. And THEN I can do endgame content. Thank god they made it to where pearls can drop without op levels reducing that shit show to just something you do if you want bragging rights but even without that bl2 is just exhausting. Like dark souls after anor londo or Elden ring after lyendell royal capital. This is why I stop my play throughs at tvhm. It’s why I prefer bl3 unless you want to play all the different characters which isn’t the case for me I only have to listen to the story once and then I can do endgame content. They made bl2 a little more bearable by giving us the option to switch to a level 30 character from the jump meaning you only have to play through two more times but it is still exhausting and by the end of it I was completely numb. I didn’t feel rewarded, I didn’t feel like doing anything above the DLCs I was just glad the uvhm grind was over.

    So I disagree with the scaling of skills being bad for mayhem, weapons also scale. BL2 had OP levels and the weapons scaled. My thing about the skills is they were over scaled. Fire in the skag den didn't need to be scaled, but the other things mentioned were over scaled. They needed scaling else they would have been completely disregarded. Iron bear would have been stomped on so hard, Fl4k wouldn't have been able to do pet build damage (which without purple tree is still difficult to do), Zane would probably have been fine. The Gun Gun was a mistake and I honestly just ignore it. You can run builds without needing a specific anointment, they are not really dependent on it although the anoint system is stupid so this will be the end of my disagreement on this topic. When it comes to the non-unique argument, I can see it but to me it isn't the strongest argument against the loot system in BL3 (Coming from someone who hates the overflow of legos...) for me it's moreso the there are so many it devalues the rarity. Adding another rarity wouldn't really fix it for me, at that point just make legos commons and that new rarity legos and nothing would have been different. It is more so there are so many weapons that don't deserve the title of a legendary that overflows the lego pool. A way they could have fixed the endgame weapon scaling was with Mayhem, just make the mayhem scaling scale weapons that are not competitive against other weapons currently scale higher faster.
    I play BL3 over BL2 because of the endgame and build making to me is better which is more important to me than replay ability, but BL2 is objectively a better game.

    • @St4rkiller04

      The difference between mayhem scaling on skills and having op level weapons is to negate double punishment the enemies being over leveled and the more health they enemies have. Borderlands 3 only has an increase of health which is removed from mayhem weapons and mayhem boosted skills. It’s one good thing vs good hard things in OP levels, and the opposite in borderlands. Borderlands 2 has some over tuned skills a well as a result of OP levels but it isn’t a changing value when increasing OP levels…. If that makes sense. It’s one thing to make things such as the pets builds or iron bear strong and there is another thing of making them the most powerful and easiest builds at the hardest difficulty. Good points for the other arguments and thank you for dropping this insight. 🫡

      @@St4rkiller04 Excluding the loader bot I think Fl4k pet builds were quite balanced until the Guardian Angel shotgun dropped. At least in comparison to everything else in the game. None of the pets had a way to transfer their damage type from pet to grenade or gun, and elemental damage types didn't really affect pets much. It's mostly just the Loader bot that made the difference. I don't use loader bot for several reasons. One of them is the scaling is literally broken and the other is it doesn't fit the character to me.
      Also enemies damage technically scales a bit as their attacks get environmental scaling sometimes, which is the second scariest scaling in the game. It's like 30 something times base value at mayhem 11, but it's not consistent. The only thing higher is pet mayhem scaling which was 51 times base scaling. If you are not running some sort of survivability skill or ability you will get recked doing True Takedown content, which I feel like they should have added the true button as an overall difficulty modifier option as well as an optional buff to the takedowns. Not the trials ones though, complete trash those ones are.
      I think overall pet scaling itself was a good thing and not itself over tuned for the time the scaling dropped, but when purple tree came out it broke the balance like other DLC stuff did, then the Guardian Angel dropped which broke even more balance.
      BL3 would have done so much better if enemies damage scaled with mayhem or they leveled with mayhem instead of just getting more bullet spongey, although based on the skill trees I doubt it actually would have made a difference due to the survivability tools that exist. Thinking about it OP levels would also have not worked in BL3 due to the survivability tools each character had.
      Idk what the solution is, the capabilities of the characters were too strong to be out scaled fairly without insta down attacks.
      (Just about everything else I have not commented on I agree with your statement on)

      @@stereolotus77 I have been saying the same thing about having a true difficulty for the game over all. That would have been an amazing fix. For Fl4k’s pet build after the release of the loader pet, all the other pets were good, but the loader had the piss missiles that did crazy damage at range. That’s why most people used it. The endgame difficulty is so screwed in the game it will take multiple huge changes to fix it but it’s too late for that unfortunately.

      @@St4rkiller04 The benefit of there being overpowered stuff and decent scaled stuff is you can choose to not use the over powered stuff and use the decent stuff, in comparison to everything is over scaled difficulty wise so now you have extreme difficulty using stuff out of the norm or meta. I enjoy making items that people say cannot be used and make them look good or do stupid builds that shouldn't make sense work. I can do that without bugs or glitches in BL3, in BL2 the current build making scene is based upon glitches and stuff to make things viable. I don't find that as fun.

      I completely understand, BUT I would still recommend playing bl2. Although the gameplay is less advance compared to bl3, it is still pretty up to par and has some crazy builds and endgame content with their raid bosses. I would also recommend the pre sequel because I think those are some of the best designed vault hunters in the franchise. The story and lack of endgame content may be an issue though. BL3s gameplay is pretty well done though, but the things with loot, and play through replay ability just hinder the gameplay aspect so much for me

    the tink of cunning grows in size and launches nukes at you, the hog of fervor launches you up in the air with an aoe attack, the true trials skag becomes immune to one of any element per phase, hell in one of the trials there’s a huge T. rex with rocket launchers strapped to its head, Joey ultraviolet has three phases where you kill mobs, fight him with two underbosses, and finally where he throws away his shield exchanges it for a mini gun, occasionally grows in size becoming resistant to all damage and meanwhile you have to juggle him and psychos that pop up while keeping an eye on the traps that pop up, and captain haunt spawns three orbs that make him immune that you have to destroy before you do any damage. I’m sorry if these guys aren’t unique I guess terramorphis isn’t a raid boss after all either cause in the end all he is is a big thresher with unique mechanics.

    • @St4rkiller04
      @St4rkiller04  9 месяцев назад +1

      The difference is that the regular version and the “true trials” version are only differentiated by health and damage. They do not classify as unique bosses due to this. It’s the same as giving warrior a “true trials” update. He is the same boss just with more health. That’s why I’m the video I made the distinction that the invincible sentinel wasn’t a raid boss because it is the same as the story kill but it has more health and does more damage. Joey ultra violent is literally a worse version of killivolt so it is not considered a “unique enemy” and the hollowed truant is just truant with boosted up heath and totums. Doesn’t change the strategy. I know this might not make complete sense with how I defined raid bosses, but I am coming out with a video soon explaining why each bosses is a raid boss or not. Spoilers: bosses liked verminous and son of craw aren’t really considered raid bosses by the definition I go by. It’s not a BL3 hate thing, it’s how I define raid bosses.

    An often understated aspect of gameplay is also the unforseen consequences of new additions. For example, I like having a slide. But this then adds a new balancing aspect to the game. There aren't that many sprint enhancing abilities, but one Snowdrift is so ridiculously fast, it's faster to slide to your next objective than sprint. This unintentionally makes maps feel smaller and less memorable. Combined with new skill tech and weapon modifiers, the entire game is simply too short. Not necessarily fast, but short. It's the same problem Halo has. If you add sprinting, the entire map and game dynamic need to shift to fit around it, or else you run the risk of maps feeling too large or too small.

    • @St4rkiller04

      There is some truth to this but this I don’t think the map balance changes just because of one or two items. People would complain the maps are too big if they made them significantly bigger.
