Mine is the Army Men series. Objectively mediocre games at best but the concept of toy soldiers fighting over our yards and rooms has always been cool to me

    I feel like I’m guilty of this within the Borderlands series – I love all the things about 2 that OG fans seemed to dislike, namely Anthony Burch’s writing and the weapons spread, and I actually think 3 is pretty respectable as a shooter; it’s a lot of fun to play, it’s just a weak sequel to 2. The things that fans seem to love about The Pre-Sequel (the ice and the butt slams and the new player characters) left me cold, and I think the first game pales in comparison to the second.

      That’s funny, because I love 1 and Pre-Sequel the most in the entire series. 2 just feels so dated, and I can’t stand listening to the dialogue anymore, but Pre-Sequel has that something about it that I loved about 1.

      Borderlands 2 is an absolute masterpiece. The humor was adorably cheesy, the characters were much more interesting that OG and Pre-Sequel imo (totally in love with zer0).

      I should probably install it and find some friends to play with.
