You know, there is something to Battleborn but BOY there sure are a ton of little usability issues and questionable design choices that keep pushing me away.
All of the games modes are way too long, there's no way to simply test out a character outside of loading into a mission, matchmaking is awful (eg: going into story matchmaking, hoping I can choose a mission I haven't done only to be matched with NOBODY and sitting through a load before I can quit), having tiny tidbits about the characters as unlockables for doing grindy "challenges" (some of which are reliant on hoping another player picks a specific character), none of the story missions are good and some are downright bad (the last mission is a timed sequence, followed by three bulletsponge bosses from other missions, and then the final boss, which takes place on a platform over a chasm you WILL be knocked into and killed by multiple times), getting killed right as you trigger your ult, but before it actually happens still causing it to go into cool down... I could go on.
I like the incursion mode a lot, but even that has its issues. And of the two maps in that mode, one of them isn't particularly well designed and has serious framerate issues on PS4.
I really want to like this game but it sure is going out of its way to make me not want to keep playing it.
