I've played probably 1,000+ hours of the Borderlands series, excluding 3. Borderlands 2 is the best, without a doubt. IMO, 3 isn't bad, it's definitely worth $13. But it often feels like an unoptimized cash grab. Some things are better, like UI and combat. Some things are worse, like characters, map design, and humor. It seems like it belongs in 2010 instead of 2020. I wouldn't say it's a bad game, it's just tremendously uninspired. Like it met the bare minimum for release and not much else. If you're new to the series, start with the Handsome Collection instead.
I picked this up for my wife and I on Black Friday. We didn't get around to installing it until early January. We are both Borderlands 1 and 2 vets but we waited on 3 because of the issues at launch. Ever since we've been playing 3, it's been a ton of fun. Honestly, I've found it to be better than 2, which I though was better than 1 but, again, we didn't start playing until after a bulk of the issues were fixed. For $13 you can't lose. There are way more items in this game than ever before and there are so many viable builds for each character. Plus, and the best part, they keep adding these mini events that last anywhere from 1-3 weeks and they really make adventuring fun. Right now they have an event (free) called Revenge of the Cartels and it's like a mini expansion. They also have an event called loot the universe where there are increased drops on certain planets and that changes every week. We've both just had an absolute blast playing this version. Of note, we normally do Xbox One but my wife has sorta moved over to the PC lately so she wanted to get this on PC, so we are on that platform so I can't answer any questions regarding console performance.

Is this game worth $10 for someone who had never played Borderland games before and someone who love single player campaign only? I know it $10 but I don't wanna waste it mindlessly. I trusted real gamers opinion
I put a ridiculous amount of time into the first borderlands, and a lesser but still embarrassingly large amount of time into Borderlands 2. Nothing I've heard or seen about 3 has me interested. At $13 even if I hate it there's no big loss and I could probably recoup most of it on Craigslist or eBay. Yet still, it just doesn't seem like a good use of my time. Especially now with so few new games coming out and so many games having their development disrupted when I'm FINALLY starting to make a dent in my backlog.
