Borderlands 2

Each of them are very unique, not only visually but in personality and gameplay.

I mean don't expect Disco Elysium levels of story and writing here no, but for a silly game about shooting a lot of things, this game has no right to have such an interesting story with a cast of characters this engaging.

First up is the combat, the enemy varietly and AI behaviors have been improved significantly compared to the first game.

If you want to avoid that, I’d strongly recommend sticking to solo play or pre-formed co-op groups rather than jumping in with randoms.

The game is older and it is supposed to be a "graphical" game in the first place, but despite that the world is still full of great quality visuals, and I personally love the cell shaded comic book look to the world.

In conclusion Borderlands 2 is the staple looter shooter and is an amazing game that has a good story, good characters, a great villain, good playable characters, worth while DLC, good loot, great level design and visuals, and fun gameplay, and a great modding community that can give the game new life for players who have been playing for a long time.
