Borderlands 4 's gameplay innovation has brought significant progress to the entire series, and after the experience it may make it difficult to go back to play early works.

Posts may be because of the poor performance of third-party games in the first stage of Switch 2, which leads to weak player interest: Overall, the fact that ** is "portable" alone is not enough to convince players to buy the old Switch 2 ported version**.
