It is an improved version of Borderlands 2. Most aspects were improved in this game. Questing, writing, boss fights, lootdrops over original Borderlands 2. While original is a mess of a game, this one is a lot better. Though, it does retain a lot of flaws of the original. Cheesy dialog meant for kids, non-functional drop system which often does not drop better, more interesting guns. Mobs sometimes are unbalanced hp/damage wise. Co-op is also a mess with its scalling. While classes are more interesting, it still has many questionable skill trees.
In conclusion, since it had made significant leaps in game quality from its original, I would recommend this version of a Borderlands. However, it is strictly inferior to Borderlands 3 in most aspects and it is only good if you like childish humour and writing of the originals OR you simply want to play more of the Borderlands.
