Borderlands 2 is still the best one.

Even Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a better and more competent looter shooter than this lol.

It's okay, it's not particularly great - but it's not terrible either.
The loot system is annoying, all the extra parts - reactor etc.
It's all too much, doesn't need to be like this.

I agree, a lot can be improved and with how the communication has been so far between the devs and players, I think we will see major improvements over time.

My man's playing Warframe on one screen and browsing TFD Steam discussions on second, trying to farm as many clown awards as he can.

I love Division 2. But I am always playing alone. And I can never find a good guide on what needs to be done for solo to work. Every now and then someone points me at an apparent guide. Which I try to follow, then get lost. then frustrated. Then find out the guide is 2 or 3 years old and no longer relevant.

Then I give up and play something else. It's like a yearly challenge for me to try to figure the game out

Its the only one that's currently live that has an ascetic I don't hate, isn't made by ubisoft and has a player base large enough to make it interesting.

I wouldn't say so ... not looking at monetization , just pure gameplay loop it could stand to put more work. missions are too long and tedious for what it offer there are map variety yes but they lack substance , outpost 80% chance to get nothing and have to wait 5 minutes. (which i heard is getting reduced time while actively removing the ability to just hop from map to reset first). Void Fragments have to be grinded atleast 4 times before you can take your resources to the Void Reactor for 70%-97% to not get what you're looking for. Requiring Elements for Void Fragments specifically from skills rather than weapon element or anything. The character balance is a mess. I don't mind bunny nuking or valby aquariums but other characters are just left behind and that isn't right. One of the more expensive characters Yujin? Absolute horse dung of a kit. The mission "enjoyment" is gone after normal mode ... having to go back to maps with bad mission rotations to grind materials is miserable , like Hagios , Agna Desert these maps are barren because the missions are so miserable. Actually someone gave a perfect example of what missions we have:
Guide this robot for 4 minutes then wait for 2 while spawn camping enemies for your 20% drop.

Jump enemy spawns for 5 minutes until the Yellow Man shows up for your 2% drop.

Run through a gauntlet for 15 minutes until the Ball Man shows up for your 20% drop.

Shakedown the Void Fragment for an hour and slot the reactor to fight Ball and Yellow men for your 2% drop. Find the patterns for your 3% and 6% drops. Do you have a golden stick? 6% and 10% now.

On top of the constant inventory management because slots are ridiculously low.
Moving on to the characters capacity of what they can can do besides shooting. crouch , prone , dive could be some good added elements. better mantle-ing (only works 30% of the time)... get something more mil-sim going and- yeah it's just alot... alot needs improvement before they can even think about an award let alone game of the year.

Of 2024?? sure
Of all time ?? nope , it would still be Borderlands 2

I mean its kind of hard to compete with games that have been running for near a decade.

FF14 2.0 was a serviceable but flawed mess on release. And look at it now, despite WoW existing in unison.

Division 2 is fantastic.

Hard Disagree.

There are a lot of systems they could've implemented or copied when they released the game but didn't. Instead, we get this generic shooter that basically boils down to "shoot boss till dead" except for The Hanged Man. Right now, this game is "generic shooter #69" on the list of other shooters in the market.

A lot of guns also don't have any uniqueness to it and only a chosen few are worth the investment. I wanna mow down a group of mobs up close, oh wait I can't coz shotguns are heavy weapons and its ammo are scarce.

Laser guns in a sci-fi setting? Forget about it, can't even reach enemies.

Semi-auto weapons? It has a weird lag in between shots that you have to time your clicks correctly otherwise your shot won't come out.

Burst-fire weapons? Same problem as above.

Not to mention firing from the hip has this delay everytime you shoot and that goes for every weapon.

When it comes to weapon uniqueness, I think that's why we have Ultimate Weapons like Enduring Legacy and Piercing Light.
