Hello, fellow Domingo fan! Thanks for the add.

So, I finished all of the DLC this week as well. I did enjoy the ClapTrap DLC at the end as it was a nice wrap up for the game and all of the DLC beforehand. I found a way to cheese the final boss, so I was able to beat it by myself, so that was nice. I wish there were more ClapTraps to fight because I did not complete the ClapTrap parts side mission as I would have to grind on them for quite a while and it just wasn't worth it.

I then tried the Mad Moxxi one again and found out that it scaled to my level, so that didn't help. I'd have to go through all these waves slowly and methodically just so that I don't die and do them in three different areas. I also never went after the Ultimate Boss that I needed to be in the 60s to try. I would have needed to go through the entire game a second time to even come close to that level. And since I wasn't going for , I just decided to stop and just move on.

When I beat the original Borderlands, I really wanted to play more of it. I also wanted to be caught up in the story going into the second game. I can safely say that the DLC accomplished both goals as I am up to date going into Borderlands 2 and I do not have a desire to play more Borderlands for quite a while. I probably wait until like 2025 or something.

It had its good points and its bad points, but I think I enjoyed it overall though. Very interesting for my very first DLC. I am glad that we play through it at the same time!

So, I played through the original Borderlands and then picked up the Borderlands 2 GOTY Edition. My friend suggested I go through the Borderlands 1 DLC before I play Borderlands 2 because there are some bits of story in the DLC that affect the series. I didn't want to become rusty on the game, so I decided to just play through the DLC. A little background is that I really enjoyed the first Borderlands. It was quite addicting and an enjoyable play through.

The DLC has been a bit hit and miss. I really enjoyed the first Zombie one. It was self-contained, good story and I like the homages to horror tropes. Getting all the brains at the end was annoying though. I tried Moxxi's twice and died like half-way through it. I think I might skip it, but I also might go back to it at the end when I am over-leveled. That was not fun single player.

General Knoxx almost broke me. It's vehicle based and you are traversing a giant open landscape. It felt like it was a whole new game. Also, you retread many of the same areas and bosses multiple times. It was just too much for me. Claptrap has been fun so far. It's much like the Zombie one as there are no vehicles and it is self contained. It's kind of like an epilogue to everything so far.

When I beat the original game, I liked it so much that I wanted to continue it further. Now that I am close to beating the 4th DLC, I think I have had my fill. I am ready to move onto something else. I still want to continue on in the series, but I think I need a break.

I would almost say give Borderlands 2 a chance before giving up on the series entirely. It still maintains the fundamental wackiness of the first, but marries it to a much better overall gameplay experience. Your mileage may vary, of course, but that was my impression at least. I didn't like 3 at all, and barely tolerated the original but the 2nd hit a sweet spot of sorts for me.

First time Borderlands-ing? It gets even more odd/wacky as you progress through the series!

Agreed, it has potential to be a good game. Matt Furniss did great work with Genesis audio and he's probably my favorite non-Japanese music composer on the Genesis. I wonder what he does nowadays?

It is! Linus Spacehead is on the Quattro Adventure cart alongside three others.

Yah, managed to do a cleanup earlier and made some room.

Anyway, it's neat seeing somebody on here playing something like Fantastic Dizzy. Those Oliver Twins games seem to be either severly overlooked by people who weren't living in the UK in the '80s and '90s or just that much of an acquired taste. I'm playing Super Robin Hood and it seems pretty competent. Not good enough to compete with the action games from major companies, mind you, but I like it enough.

Sorry, couldn't add you back because my list is full, but thanks for the add.

You actually finished Fantastic Dizzy? I'm super jealous! I really wanna get into that one but it's so long! And no continues? Seriously, that's some nice work. I'm hoping to go through that (and Treasure Island Dizzy NES) soon.
