I'm hoping Randy falls hard next year and has to leave the game industry in general. However, Borderlands is one of my favorite AAA IPs and despite how old Borderlands 2 is nothing has remotely come close to recapturing the feel of the Borderlands IP.Randy Pitchford seems like a real piece of work, and I wouldn't mind seeing him fail.
But at the same time it cannot be fun to be working on BL3 at gearbox right now, and I want those devs to do well.
Some games have tried, but they fell so far into loot boxes and cosmetic drops to try to milk people of money that they just weren't enjoyable to play. I played base Destiny 2 (shortly after the first expansion came out) and the story had no meat to it, and after I was done with the story which took like 10 total hours (and got me to max level) all that was left for me was to grind the same few missions over and over again hoping I would get slightly better loot. There was a raid, but my gear wasn't good enough to properly do it and everything else in the game is set up for 3 people and that requires far more.
and there was PVP but I hate PVP so that was useless to me lol.
I won't deny that the melee felt a million times better in Destiny 2, but in general I prefer the gunplay in borderlands 2 over Destiny 2.
