you're taking the graphics of a borderlands sequel seriously?
did you not play borderlands? they're not supposed to look like HD skyrim textures. ;_;

I'm not talking about the textures, the models and animation are terrible low-par with this decade.
As well as visual effects like lighting and particles.
It almost feels like an xbox-1 game.

Unless it's a totally new type of gameplay, yes.
The only reason minecraft took off with graphics like that is because it's so unique.
Borderlands is just another fps.
Actually, it's just fo3 but more obnoxious and with less depth.
So yeah, graphics are the only thing left to distinguish a game like that.

I would play an 8-bit game with an amazing story line over a game with super flashy graphics and a shitty story line any day of the week.

People enjoyed borderlands because they had adhd and couldn't sit through a decent storyline, otherwise they'd get fo3 which is superior on all levels.

If the same game was available with super flashy graphics you'd choose it right?

Borderlands 1 had a great story imo and it was fun and unique to me. The amount of random weapons kept me looking for good ones and it was always exciting being confronted with thousands of missions/quests.

Ever played fallout 3?
- More serious story, better IMO
- Borderlands had I think 12 weapons, the only thing that was random about them was the coloring and damage amount/type, Fo3 had like 60 weapons, also randomized
- Fo3 has 20x more content plus countless DLC's
- You aren't limited to 4 characters in Fo3, nor certain skill trees
- Fo3 is older but still has better graphics than Borderlands and probably Borderlands 2
Not saying Borderlands is BAD but I'm saying that they aren't anything NEW and therefor should at least keep up with the industry's graphics standard.

FO3 kinda wasn't too exciting for me for some reason. So much traveling although it wasn't bad. The long distance traveling for the exact same stuff over and over was kinda lame. I did enjoy the unique character creation every time you played though.
I really do enjoy games that its cartoony though.

IMO the traveling was neat, I got mad at first but it was a good mad, and there were plenty of cool little spots to find along the way, also there's fast travel so you only have to go by foot once.
Less detail was put into borderlands' environment and landscaping since 99% of the moving around is done in a vehicle.
Yes, the cel-shaded textures are cool and unique, but I'm talking about how everything else is not up to par with new games:
The particles system is laughable because it uses sprites
Pseudophysics, need I say more
Aside from DOF, which rapes CPU and generally isn't worth the framerate drop unless you're on a beast computer, there are no visual effects.
It's just, bland.
