Tiny Tina's Wonderlands was Epic exclusive and it didn't seem to make a splash on either release. I wonder if it's because people didn't make the leap to Epic but lost interest by the time it was on Steam? Or maybe Borderlands 3 made people lose interest in the franchise.

The game was not great, at least personally. It wasn't bad, but it was just BL3 in a different dress, with less interesting story, less interesting characters. Also the DLCs were insane cashgrabs, not even close to the value BL3 DLCs had.

Yeah I've never touched any of that series' DLC, always hear that it's overpriced.

Personally, I really enjoyed BL2, Pre-sequel, BL3, and TTWL, but I get that the series has lost popularity. I'm huge into D&D so that added an extra layer. The tabletop jokes were on point.

Borderlands 2 was peak for me, franchise went steadily downhill from there imo. 4 friends battling Vermivorous the Invincible is an unforgettable experience.

Really wanted to like it, it's been a long time seems a good BL game, but the quests were tedious and the melee didn't work.

The whole arpg loop where they give you shitty weapons for the first few hours sucks
