The general consensus among Borderlands fans is that BL2 is the best one, so I don't see how it's overrated.

Which, I also disagree with that consensus. Or at least don't entirely agree.

Weapons were more mundane, but that also made loot feel more impactful. Even just boss weapons in BL1 felt like a major upgrade. The exact opposite of this is Tiny Tina's Wonderlands where everything is roughly leveled the same and every gun is quirky so nothing stands out and I just don't care about looting at all.

The atmosphere is a lot more grounded and gritty in BL1, striking a better balance. Unlike BL2 which just put the entire franchise in a trajectory towards memeshit that is just dated today.

This started even with the PS3/360 and is meant to cut down load times by saving common files on the HDD. Graphic and audio fidelity has greatly surpassed optical drive technology (more specifically read time and disc speed). You're complaining about an ideal solution that's been in effect for 15+ years.

I’ve never played Dead Space (original). Should I just play the remaster and then 2 and 3, or should I play the original and then the remaster?
