Good game. Excellent story, memorable characters, outstanding voice acting, intelligent and satisfying gameplay, and is deeply respectful to RPG traditions. A bit buggy at times, but generally not too bad. Would recommend it to anyone interested in RPGs.
Presumably it is a game which is about to get a sequel, expansion, refresh, or some kind of DLC.
If it’s included and you don’t already have B2 (or all the expansion stuff), then sure.
I've heard it's not. The most common comments are: it's just more of the same, the story isn't as interesting, it's map design is more Borderlands 1 than 2.
Strictly speaking, the gameplay is pretty much the same. There are a couple of new mechanics regarding Oz kits & atmospheres, & a buttslam. It's more for the lore than anything else. Origin stories of several BL2 characters, Jack, Nisha (Sheriff of Lynchwood), Wilhelm & Athena (BL1 DLC). Plus playing as Claptrap is fairly amusing. It is done by 2K Australia, however, so most of the voice talent is Aussie, if that makes a difference to you.
Seriously, between the different services trying to get eyeballs, I'm never going to play through all the games I get for free. Thinking about buying anything just seems irresponsible.
