Bruh, the article your commenting on is an explanation of what's going on since the PSN fiasco, you could just read it, since you opened the post anyways.
However, with that being said, new patch hit and added a bunch of content and balance changes. Discussion of the new content has largely been sidelined by people complaining about the balance changes. Players are frustrated that a meta develops, and then the devs nerf that meta into oblivion because they are trying to prevent "one-size-fits-all" solutions. Another complaint is that it takes far too long to kill enemies unless you are using the exact tool the devs intend you to use. Devs publicly agree that time to kill is excessive at the moment, but don't believe the solution is just to buff all weapons. They promise to continue working on the balancing to find a happy medium.
That's the gist of it based on OPs post at any rate.
Right? Like I see folks in this thread and elsewhere echoing some of the typical things you hear when Hollywood botches an adaptation. Things like "it would be better if it was faithful to the source material" and other sentiments like that.
However, in this case, the one aspect of the games that is easily translateable to film (the writing) seems to have aged the absolute worst. Self-referential Internet humor was a bold, unique aesthetic in 2009, but it's been largely played out the 15 years since the og game released, or at least Borderlands' take on that style of humor has gotten stale. Maybe the writing was better outside of 2 and Tiny Tina's (the entries I played the most), but I sort of doubt it.
I would not want to be tasked with adapting Borderlands. Stick close to the source material, get flamed for writing something juvenile. Diverge from the source material, get accused of not capturing the spirit of the franchise. It's an impossible situation.
