The only legendary I found in my first play through was a leaching nade off the final boss =/

Anyone else find the game way too easy? the only challenge was the gauntlet area, and even that didn't take much to finish..

You play through True Vault Hunter mode? It's not uber hard, but you can get gibbed pretty easy if you aren't careful.....

I think they did a great job with the difficulty. You actually need to use the right kind of gun against different enemy types, you have to keep upgrading to do enough damage, and the raid bosses are soloable after a fair amount of farming.
 
If you do TVHM the "right way" not doing quests so you can get level 50 guns out of them later then second playthrough gets pretty hectic, doing "Where Angels Fear to Tread" and everything is 3-4 levels above you. Don't open the fucking hyperion ammo boxes there unless you and an unkillable Mini-Jet Loader following you around the whole way up, one shotting you with rocket fire.

What I want to know is why they didn't implement a way to create guns of your own. The ones in-game are already modular. Make it so you have to salvage the components from guns you find, and then combine them at a slight cost of quality or something. Higher quality weapons coming from higher quality salvage.

Also, the writing is fucking awesome. Anthony Burch needs to write for more games.

They ran out of ACM money and had to ship BL2 as it was.

They're pretty wedded to the idea of RNG. Being able to build your own custom gun negates that, and really there are only a couple BEST gun designs in any category.

Sure, everyone who doesn't remember this isn't an MMO already runs around with a bee/sham and norfleet/infinity/etc anyways, but being able to run around with a custom made would just make that a problem for players with greens and above, rather than for addicts.

How do the playthroughs work? I'm about rescue Roland during playthrough 2 and noticed the side quests were scaling to my level. Should I not grab them until I hit 50 and keep doing story missions or is there another mode after True Vault Hunter?

The joke was that the new DLC would be called 'Tiny Tina's Racist Adventure" which took off like wildfire after the panel discussion and within an hour I heard people talking about it on the expo floor.

The trailer alone there makes me reconsider the season pass.
The new vault hunter looks like it might be fun as well.

They showed the Oprah Winfrey "Bees" .gif as they passed out codes for the new vault hunter to everyone in attendance, was pretty sweet.
