Comment on Borderlands 4 for Nintendo Switch 2 likely axed, as Take-Two says it’s ‘paused’ development | VGC

Borderlands was in essence an open world game. Two was so connected you could walk from the very beginning to the very end without any use of vehicles if you do chose. Borderlands 3 was the equivalent of Final Fantasy X.

If you say so. I can tell you I’ve been tracking my times pretty judiciously in the past year. For each of those Borderlands games, my times were:
Borderlands 1: 23h17m Borderlands 2: 35h15m Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel: 22h21m Borderlands 3: 35h25m Borderlands 4: 28h26m
So I guess Borderlands 2 wasn’t longer, like I may have remembered it. In each case for the above, I basically just did enough side missions to keep pace with the recommended level of the next main story mission, which amounted to a few hours per game. All of those times include the DLC, and the DLC is also very similarly sized and paced across games.
