I played through BL3 on a 2016 PC and it was OK. Not perfect, but perfectly playable. Looking at that PC Gamer article, I don't even understand the complaint of being unable to run the game at 120 FPS. Seems like an unreasonably high bar. I'd take 60.

Its initial launch on Epic was a mess for multiplayer, and there was plenty of documented issues for PC.

The story was probably also a sign to come for the movie that would release after....

If you asked me to recall the story of any of the games, I'd not be able to. I don't think people play the games for the story. It's just a fun looter shooter, especially in co-op, which is how I played BL3 around its Epic launch. Revisiting my technical review of the game from then, yeah, you're right, and I documented various reports of issues, though there were quick fixes deployed or workarounds available for the biggest issues. That seems commonplace in the industry though.

The game is running at less than 40fps, they’re using the 3X Frame Gen mode

Granted, that’s at 4K and seems to alse be with most of the settings cranked to “Badass”
