It’s simple for me … there is no end game framework to work on that isn’t repetative boss-killing. Even a randomised dungeon with a random boss encounter at the end would be better than nothing, and would certainly be better than the unrewarding Guardian Takedowns (possibly BL3’s biggest dropped ball imo).
But hey … who knows … they might eventually address it one day … but yeah … it’s dull as hell at the moment.
After beating all content, bar guardian takedown as I truly hate it, I saw only farming in my future to fully optimise my build tho since I got through with sub par gear I really didn’t see a point in farming for hours for no reason what so ever. Could spend all that time playing other things til new content arrives.
i only play it for 10 mins or less now a day if i even feel like playing it (as mostly play now when people do certain kind of drop lobby’s if you get my drift) as legit farming isnt worth it anymore i feel due to issues game still has and should been fixed awhile ago, though i find is more appealing to replay games like ff15 myself as dungeons are done right on ff15 compared to say takedown and more of challenge and rewards in ff15 dungeons seem more worth it.
1 - Modifiers
2 - Matchmaking is broken
3 - Online/Offline Co op is broken
4 - Loading times
5 - No raid bosses
6 - Character/Gear Scaling
7 - Unnecessary nerfs in the name of “balance”
8 - Most of my friends stopped playing because all of the above
Yes to all (but I would’ve listed #7 first.)
The Emperor Ming:
Klytus, I’m bored. What plaything can you offer me today?
Klytus:
An obscure body in the S-K system, Your Majesty. The inhabitants refer to it as the FPS RPG… Borderlands 3.
The Emperor Ming:
How peaceful it looks.
[He activates a console, and watches as Mayhem 2.0, Nerfs, Jumping Puzzles, Rebalancing, etc., start to occur. They both get a good laugh out of it.]
Klytus:
Most effective, Your Majesty. Will you destroy this, uh, Borderlands 3?
The Emperor Ming:
Later. I like to play with things a while… before annihilation. [laughs evilly]
pretty much it
but i would just also say things why my friends left me, and in the end i left too
-too many little lvl increases AFTER events not right before
-events are timed
-mayhem 2.0 doesnt add anything, all it rly does is give lvl increases with no skillpoints and more health for enemies / actionskill damage, delte that and the game is suddenly not (as) broken
-dlcs are a HEAVILY mixed bag, wher content wise dlc 1-2 are okay, but offer not much for longlivity
dlc 3-4 are rly short and only worth it if you REALY REALY REALY like the game
yeah all the things you named basically did alot too, the mayhem mods alone made 3 of my 6 friends who did play leave, JUST THE MODS 1 more left due to the insane scaling problems of m2.0
2 remained and those left due to how stuff scales, and no meaningfull content
i mean i was able to run the maliwan takedown with friends no issue, they dont have the dlcs so they can not rly play zane already, and alot of gear for endgame is hard locked behind the dlc, making the balancing issues even worse
and with mayhem2.0 it became again even worse
the death kicker was guardian takedown the last guy that played with me just was so extremely frustrated with this that he said
this game is a waste of time, if you want to play borderlands then i might play 2, this sucks dont ask me again.
he cant even clear most of the mobs, cant play zane, cant play fl4k, heavily dislikes moze.
<.< its like by design the game cant rly be played to full enjoyment in its current form at highest difficulty if you dont have any dlc
but i mean i have to see a real change before i re-install this game
that or i play on ps5 since my pc cant handle the game at anything higher then low / low medium
oh i forgot
the game crashes every now and then, making it 100% legit unplayable for 2 of my friends from the getgo
my game keeps freezing and so on,
