Unit sales are half what BL3 did in its first week. Budget of game $280M. They have a long way to go just to recoup costs.
BL3 was such a piece of shit that I'm not falling for it again, despite what anyone may say about how good this one is.

This wasn't even on my radar and I had wrote it off a while ago. I saw some reviews and noticed the positive hype for it after release and decided to purchase it. Now, I'm at around 100 hours played on this and it's been great. Im just taking my time exploring trying to 100% everything. There are some bugs and UI issues, but it has still been worth my investment. They are releasing weekly patches which keeps improving the game. They also avoided throwing the nerf bat at some broken builds/interactions right away which helps. They were also kind enough to let the community know there are some nerfs coming. I probably missed out on some fun due choosing to play a non broken build. My understanding is that's how they killed Wonderlands. I did not play BL3 but I did recently play Wonderlands and it felt like a slog to get through compared to this. Saying it's better the BL2 is a bit much but definitely one of the better ones, 2nd best maybe? I haven't played 1 in a long time.

My biggest cons are the cash grab dlc bundles. I think that's what really sinks this game from gaining higher praise for me. Also, the endgame needs improvement right now.

Yeah that's the thing, I already heard all these same comments from people trying to convince me BL3 was a good/fun game back when that released. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice and shame on me. That seems to be the case with just about any long running franchise that's clearly been declining lately, there's always going to be those people who still rush out to buy the latest entry and try to convince everyone it's fun talking about how much they have been playing it. True that could be genuine, or it could just be sunken cost fallacy, but I just know I am not happy with the studio or their last entry so that's enough for me to steer clear until it's at least heavily discounted.

Can't understand or relate to the mentality of needing to buy every big new release game and having the time to play them throughly right away anyways. That's just something I could never keep up with, I have a ton of games I find far more appealing in my backlog.

Will there be tits and nazi voice overs? Will Lillith have an even shorter neck? I can't wait.
