Disclaimer, this is not directed at the OP or the majority of people in this thread, regardless of their view of the game, good or bad. It needs to be said to the others though.
I'm anxious to see if BL4 will overtake FF16 as the biggest, most trolling, most overblown thread activity on Gaf ever…there are so many people replying to the threads that clearly haven't even played it at all, and a lot of the negative activity has absolutely no relevant context. We know there are performance issues, we know Randy is an idiot, we know the game is getting review bombed, but why is it so hard to not flood the threads with irrelevant bullshit so much? I'm not referring to the OP's (at least this time), I'm talking about the people blatantly just bashing for fun, and it's the same bunch of people every thread. I used to love coming here when even if you didn't like a game, or something was wrong with a game, the majority of folks would have civilized conversations about it..now, wtf are we even doing here? It has seriously gotten so heavy with nonsense that most times it's not even enjoyable to discuss your opinions with another user because by the time you jump on to read the reply, notifications and replies are just filled with trash. I feel bad for the mods, they probably got to a point where they said screw it because they can't keep up with the warnings. I just wish we could go back where the community wasn't like this…it's sad really. I try to keep up with ignoring people, but I just can't anymore.
Anyway, my two cents. I hate that people are having performance issues, but happy they are trying to fix it quickly, because it truly is a very good game. Perfect? Not at all, but a very fun game solo or coop. I haven't personally had any issues on ps5. My little cousin plays on PC and is having some frame rate problems and has had a few crashes in his 30+ hours or so. If you are on PC I would probably wait until they iron out some of the issues, but if you are on console, the game is absolutely in a good place and a complete game. Some people might have experienced performance issues, or they might not like some of the changes like losing the mini map, there are also some that reported the frames dipping after long sessions (no one in my circle, including myself have experienced this on base ps5) but if anyone tells you the game is broken or not complete on console, they are flat out lying. Be your own judge, don't let the people I mentioned above convince you not to play a game that you want to play.
