New to the Borderland games

[F4Frenzy]

I just recently bought Borderlands GOTYE and it's pretty good. Could I get some tips n stuff on how to play or get better at the game and also which borderlands game is the best because I'm thinking of buying the rest.

Best in terms of value as a full package - Borderlands 2
Best in terms of gameplay - Borderlands 3 (Although it has some technical issues aswell sometimes - more than other borderlands games from my experience)
Best in terms of story and characters - Presequel (I know that this might be a controversial opinion, but i stick to it).

I also liked the Presequel characters and story and i agree with you.

Best as far as gameplay goes is indeed Borderlands 3

Longevity and value is borderlands 2

Buuuut...one thing that i notice everytime i do a playthrough of all borderlands games(going through all difficulties) is that Borderlands 1 has the best weapons as far as balance goes.What i mean is that,if you find a good weapon in borderlands 1 you'll treasure it like the one ring.If you find a good weapon in Borderlands 2 you'll keep it for a few levels unless it's a build-opener and in borderlands 3 if you find a high rarity weapon...you'll change it in a few minutes because weapons drop like candies.

Best in terms of story and characters has got to be the Tiny Tina DnD dlc, surely?

While tiny tina's dlc has pretty good writing and an incredibly touching story moment, i would still say that overall - Presequel has the best story period. The decent of that certain character, and the way playable characters are written makes it extremely enjoyable, even if the mid game with a certain character can get on your nerves (I hate pickles).

And not to mention. Tina's dlc has Lair of Infinite agony.... which is imo one of the worst zones in any bl game. Ever.

Borderlands 1, while the shortest.... idk. I just love it the most tbh. It is the only game in the series with this gritty, desolate atmosphere, darker themes, and yea, the guns and how their parts work in 1 is just so freaking enjoyable.
