The only way that Borderlands 2 was a real improvement over the first one was the auto money picku to-up. I know many or most will disagree with me, but I don't care. I have beaten both games more than once and I always go back to the first one. I find it much funnier than the second, and the second went overboard with the variety of weapons to the extent that everything was basically garbage. I did enjoy using keys to get mystery loot, though.

Also, Bloodwing for life.
