Replayability is everything. I had my 300+ hours of fun on the game, but the burnout has hit me harder than any other Borderlands game. Right now we have no NG+ and pushing through the story is a slog with the mountains of dialogue and pacing. 80% of a playthrough is required mobbing to proceed forward. Take that required mobbing out and you have a very short game. Right now maps are empty, DLCs lacks content, and there isn't much to do in the game. Sure there are dedicated farms, but most of them are horribly bad and I feel as that is their way of pushing players into the chaos chamber. When you limit farming to the chaos chamber and barf bunny loot farming, it gets stale fast. It's the TPS grinder problem all over again. Also, I don't find that there is many synergies to be had in the multiclass system. It feels like most builds rely heavily on one character/interaction and the other character is just there for the ride. The game has potential, but I think history is just repeating itself. The damage seems done and I don't know if many people will be coming back to the game anytime soon. It makes me sad to see the current state of the Borderlands franchise. At this rate I think I'm just gonna wait for Borderlands 4 and hope the game is done right.

- no slaughter domes
- no raid bosses
- no hunt missions
- no ng+
- no resetting story missions
- no endgame (literally only chaos chamber)
- very little farmable bosses, doesn't matter anyway because farming is horrible outside CC 👍
- no expanded story from dlc


Feel free to list anything else I'm missing

"Hunting gear" is such a massive thing in Borderlands. I want to be able to go to a specific area or boss and kill it 100 times for the one item with the correct rolls. Being able to know that "this boss WILL drop my item with enought time" is so important for keeping me in the game.

[mpoTCHY]

Wonderlands has the opportunity to give us LITERALLY anything the devs want to create due to no lore restraints yet we get the lamest content of ANY of the Borderlands series. Absolutely sad.

[Moxsy]

You said it perfectly. This game has so much potential, so much creativity went into making this game, the classes and more. Yet, the DLC feels like some of the shallowest content offerings we have received, especially when compared with the DLC content prior games have had. I feel like there is a miscommunication in what Gearbox intended for the post launch plans of this game vs what the community thought it would be and people are pissed. The lack of good dedicated farms + the frequent nerfs are hurting players motivation to play because what’s the point of going out and farming something for hours if it is going to get nerfed next week. Bl3 had tons of nerfs but came out the other side an amazing game and I trust gearbox’s balancing decisions, but with a more challenging game, enemy damage scaling with each chaos level, good items being hard to come by, the nerfs hurt even more and the guns just don’t feel very good without interactions behind them.

Another thing wrong. 98% of the weapons do no damage. You have to be specd into a certain build to do any damage. Takes the fun out knowing you're limited to 3 weapons

[bahencio]

This game(and bl3) really need a dialogue skip option. The reason bl2 didnt was because almost all dialogue happened WHILE the gameplay. Now a fourth of the gameplay is sitting listening to dialogue, which is fine the first time, but hurts replayability so much

2 Problems
1, I hate the lot luck system, having it for world drops is fine, but leave dedicated drops alone,
2, I bought the season pass under the assumption that we would be getting at least a couple campaign dlcs and not just things similar to the chaos trial.
Obviously their is still time for them to deliver on this but at the moment I'm disappointed

[bobvagana]

It pains me to see a developer with such a loving and dedicated audience completely miss what that audience wants from their games

[SoulshadeVr]

It's lack of replayability in my opinion lack of New game Plus is what did it for me that's pretty much what made borderlands so replayable it's just being able to start story over with all your gear and get better gear and then do it again and improve upon that gear and ect and wonderland has a pretty good story it'd be fun to play through story again without having to start from scratch every time

[michaelknox]

I think it's the dlcs. Gearbox should have done typical Borderlands dlcs not these small bite sized content drops.

[Paycheckfan]

When this game came out, I actually declared it my favorite borderlands. As I progressed, I realized how incredibly flawed it was, and I'm just completely burned out and super disappointed

[faresfares-ultra]

Where to start :
Every patch they release it fix one thing and break two or more
The DLC's or the PLC are the worst in borderlands series and they are not worth for the season pass
The endgame is nice but it getting boring need more enemies appears in the chamber they low
The UI and split screen are broken

[johnwrath]

I have definitely “dipped out”. I had fun my first time through the campaign and for a couple hours in the chaos chambers but it wore off real fast. The fact that I can just multiclass to see every class in action makes it hard to justify another playthrough. No ng+. The base campaign is extremely short and the story is really forgettable. There are way too few legendaries and a lot of the dnd theme seems to involve duct taping a crossbow to a normal gun and making it harder to aim. The dlc is a joke. I’m done. I regret buying this game. It had so much potential to move borderlands forward but instead it feels like BL 3.5. It probably should have been a dlc expansion to borderlands 3 rather than a full priced title. If I paid 40$ for this, I’d be happy with my purchase. I paid 100$ for the game and season pass and feel extremely ripped off.

[Esty]

The most infuriating feeling is that they could make so many crazy, good story DLCs for this game and there is just silence.
I love Wonderlands. I couldn’t stop until i played through it. I don’t like chaos chambers. I did them once or twice, then done. Created a new character.
I really want decent story DLCs. 😥

[jinnitachi]

if we don’t get a second play through of the story and at least one good story DLC i’ll be genuinely sad. this is my favorite game in the series gameplay wise. it just deserves the love and the content. i feel like a second play through is just needed in these games, id like to have another shot at getting chaos enhanced quest rewards

[CrimsonFIame]

Honestly after ripping me off and alot of other gamers with this season pass I'm not paying for Season pass #2 after this. If others want to purchase it that's their decision but I'm not rewarding this ill treatment.

[IntotheGrey]

For me, I always felt lost when it came to the Skill Tree system. I never knew what I could or wanted to plan towards. Being limited to one skill tree for half the game and then only seeing another skill tree after you've chosen your second class meant I always felt like I was shooting in the dark. I finished the game a few weeks back and I couldn't tell you what any of the skill trees do, including the two I picked.

[thatuchiha]

The season pass for this game is what pissed me off the most. We are getting what they promised but I don't think they mentioned how criminally short the mirrors were going to be. Feels like a cash grab
