Lol, no. 1. Better weapon mechanics - by far. 2. PvP. 3. Raids that are interesting and don't consist of only one lazily designed boss and don't require broken combos or glitching. 4. Beautiful armor. 5. Fair leveling up. You can get advance in level without making 99% of your weapons useless. 6. End game content. You heard right. Borderlands devolved into farming bosses and chests very quickly. 7. Freedom of choice. Destiny doesn't force you into one single weapon combo and skill build. 8. Support. Yup, Bungie actually DO LISTEN and try to IMPROVE the game. Gearbox stated they didn't have the money for that and instead presented us some unnecessary micro-DLCs and BL1.5. Lieing at its best! 9. More weapons. The game with the "87 bazillion weapons" actually lacks proper scout rifles. Lmao. Aaand 10. (this one's for the fans) - despite a lot of hostility, the Destiny community is SO. MUCH. BETTER! than that of BL2. BL2 was separated into casuals who enjoyed the basic concept of Borderlands (who got a nice F*CK YOU! from Gearbox with the OP levels) and "elitists" who thought themselves superior, ignoring the fact how they have never touched a competitive shooter and are just exploiting BL2's broken mechanics. BONUS: 11. Speaking of which, do you realize how easy and rewarding teaming up in Destiny is? See that golden 30 Warlock in the Tower with Mythoclast on back >BOOOM!< - fireteam invite. Borderlands only knows some strange matchmaking. And can you see your stats on Borderlands anywhere on the internet? Do Gearbox talk to the community? No. And don't get me started on the pathetic forum moderation at the GBX forums. This all draws the very clear picture that GBX don't care for the community and the game, but rather just want to milk you as much as possible. BONUS 2: 12. Forgot maybe THE most important one: NO cheaters! You can't play BL1 or 2 with four legit players in MM. Ever. You can't even play with OP8 in MM, by the way (number 13?). Bungie are known and feared among the modding community for their "zero tolerance policy" against cheaters. Gearbox are a pathetic joke in this regard. You literally spend hours just searching for a legit lobby in BL. That enough for you? I got a suggestion, if you want to play Borderlands, then go ahead. I've got VERY good reasons to not like it anymore. And this is coming from someone who has spent more than five hundreds of hours on both BL games.

  • Well said! I loved BL2, but couldn't agree more with most of your points.

  • I disagree with almost every single one of your points. I think 4 was the only one that didn't make me roll my eyes. But hey that's your opinion and you're welcome to it.

    Most of your reasons aren't even in the game. They may be related but not in the game and others were downright wrong. Seriously "Freedom of Choice" are you kidding me? Also community really? Most of these are just a facepalm along with a rant. I could nitpick all of the ones that I said were garbage. I enjoy both games but I stand by Borderlands[spoiler]if I were in denial I would've said all of your reasons are dumb[/spoiler][spoiler]vanilla BL2 is better[/spoiler]

  • Couldn't agree more. I find the unstoppable stream of guns in BL quite annoying as it's just fodder. Nothing really of any worth or excitement for that matter. The moment you DO get something great, you find after using it that your Purple / orange whatever bloody colour it is legendary fancy pants gun couldn't hit the side of a barn at 20 paces. Drove me nuts.

  • Hehe, you're just in denial. For whatever reasons. But I got a last one for you: This is VANILLA Destiny. Imagine BL2 without its DLCs. Still so spectacular? Doubt it.
