So im enjoying the game, back in the day i p;ayed thru 1 and 2 with friends it was fun but 1 thing that bothered…me
When they said they were gonna p;ay thru the game 3 more times to lvl up their characters and myself im like i dont have time like that because the story gets redundant , but the pay off was that your main character had badass tokens that would transfer over to your other play throughs
but by the you get to your 3rd play thru it gets redundant because the PoV of the story does not change have any other effects pn the universe from any vault hunter you choose
and now its a little worse here because here your BAT is locked till you finish the whole story so now for your second playthru if im right (because i havent finished yet) is that your second playthru had no rewards to pass on to your next character (except the loot youve gotten for the next class as a byproduct of your playthru youd like to play)
Things seem to be faster but they are major time sinks that dont give any reward i mean if i did a play thru and on my next character all the slots were open id be fine with it but i have to most likely open everything again thru story progression and thats just a lot of time i dont have id like to start a gunner be able to have my slots open on my next play thru with BAT from my main character
i dunno maybe im ranting over nothing but those time sinks they put in there doesnt give any feel of progression or success, its like i play the first time then dread the next play thrus because nothing is gonna change yes i have knowledge of what to do or where to go but…eh

Your other characters should have your Guardian ranks unlocked w/ out beating the story, you just have to go imto the menu and let it play out it’s unlocking animation. If not, your game is glitched.
But yeah, an option to boost your other characters, or even speed the story would be nice. Even just making cutscenes skippable would make a huge difference. Also, the story quests really need streamlined. Havingto hand in an item, THEN manually take it back after a few minutes of dialogue takes up a lot of time. Esp since there’s no objective and you cant even get a head start on traveling ( since you might have to talk again or take/hand in an item). Just leads to a lot of standing around. Following NPC’s is also really, really slow. They just stop if you get too far and it becomes tedious.
I’d try powerleveling now, or even just rush the story and boost offline w/ the increased XP. If you only do main story misisons it takes around 10 hours or so. There was also some way to get everything to scale to Lvl 1, letting you just breeze through.
