Finished up the story on Borderlands 3 today. Played most of it solo.
Enjoyed it a lot. Will definitely continue to play through True Vault hunter mode, farm bosses for loot, try mayhem modes, etc. I have to say that the story and boss fights from Bl2 were a lot more fun and memorable for me. Much better story, FAR better antagonist. I thought the different planets were kind of a gimmick, as they just kinda replicated a bunch of the different areas from Bl2.
The game was really hard in the beginning when i didn't have elemental weapons or the necessary backpack space i needed to carry ammo. But that stopped being a problem later in the game. Honestly, the the last couple hours of the game (including the final 3 bosses) were a bit too easy IMO. I had a set of weapons that just mowed through pretty much everything, so unless an enemy was just super fast, I could just thump pretty much anyone. I think my build had something to do this though. Basically, I used a combination of skills that transferred all but 1 point of health to my shield and then gave me constant bonus damage based on how low my healthy was. so instead of like 4000 shield and 3000 health, i had 7000 shield and 1 health (and got +80% damage as a result). Plus there were other skills that stacked more damage. You would think that with this sort of build, I'd be susceptible to a lot of quick damage, but that just wasn't the case. Other than 2 or 3 tough early boss battles, i probably died less than 10 times over the course of the entire game. (obviously 2nd wind plays a big part in this)
I'm hoping its a bit more balanced in the end game (especially since they're starting to nerf some of the uber-builds that a lot of people have discovered). We'll see.
Definitely recommended if you liked the previous games or just looter-shooters in general (the guns really are a lot of fun). If you're just looking for a good story, you may not enjoy it quite as much.

No way that's possible, right? 6 years until the next GTA game seems impossible. I mean we could have the PlayStation 6 by then.
