I loved borderlands, but the loot system was garbage. You'd get an OP gun that negated almost all other drops. The weapons in Destiny are much more balanced by comparison, giving a larger variety of gunplay. As far as gameplay, what no one likes to admit is that RPG structured gameplay as seen in borderlands/any Bethesda game is just as repetitive as Destiny. Bungie just doesn't try to hide it. Any side quest in any RPG ever is basically "go to point A and do action B then return to A/go to C" usually while retreading already discovered territory. Destiny's equivalent are patrols and bounties, but you are usually able to choose where and how you complete them, giving the player more options while reaping the same benefits and being able to complete more faster through multitasking. The mission structure of destiny is way more socially oriented, allowing you to hop in, help and move on. Other games that relied solely on a level system over the course of an extended campaign left you feeling stuck having to replay old content with no rewards just to play with friends if they weren't as far along as you were. Destiny's compact campaign helps to resolve that, providing players an easy route to enjoy endgame content with friends where everyone has a chance at rewards. Also consider the economy. While it may be flawed, Destiny's economy and vendors far outlive the lifespan of any other RPG's vendors, where almost all gear you can buy is always a little subpar to what you've already acquired leaving you to accumulate an absurd amount of currency with absolutely nothing beneficial to spend it on. And the raids. Holy sh!t. The raids. Nothing compares to the raid experience of Destiny. All of that said, I do hope that Bungie follows borderlands lead and craft some new character classes for next year. [b]TL;DR[/b] The major difference is really just in structure of content that's more socially accessible with better weapon balance/variety. That social emphasis along the carrot on the stick loot system gives more replayability than the more "traditional" long, drawn out campaign that becomes repetitive and boring in its own way.

Please tell me this is #satire

I hated boarderlands

Video games are a failed attempt at movies See i can make absolutely zero sense too.

Both are fun. But something bout borderlands got really dull... Guess it was all the shamfleeting gunzerkers and hackers who'd crash the game by dropping oceans op8 guns... I stopped playing at 2, never got TPS

Bruh tiny tina, Brick, butt stallion, and claptrap, and mr torge (hopefully I spelled his name right) Are amazing characters with way more in depth story then the destinys storyline its self plus they are all -blam!-ing funny as hell

...borderlands was a failed attempt at a shooter that's actually fun to play. I can do this too.

I hate Borderlands. Love Destiny. Sooooo there's that...

Borderlands, in my honest opinion, doesn't have much more pull and draw as Destiny, or as much replay value. Sure, it's a fun game, but once you do everything in the game (which I have), it gets very boring. Eh, that's just me though. To each their own. I'll keep playing Destiny because it just draws me in more.

Your cute today. No they are very different on just story and play style. Even dialogue.

You are a failed attempti

My God... Spell check man!

Borderlands 2 is a great game, but I think all developers steals ideas from other games. Maybe not steal but more like they were inspired by a game and they want to make out better. Borderlands seems like a rip off of Diablo series except with guns. Both games you describe are great.

I never really got into borderlands like I did with destiny. The only things I truly liked about borderlands was the sick humor and the variety of enemies

How are these people so stupid? I'm just gonna leave this here autismspeaks.org Gr8 b8 OP

Sure, if failure is selling a lot more copies.
