Vault Hunters, what do you think of Borderlands 4 so far?

So, Vault Hunter, tell me a story.

Borderlands 4 is now out in the wild on PC and console, and gamers everywhere are clocking in for duty on Kairos to hunt vaults, shoot, loot, and help out the locals on a planet that's been imprisoned by a devious enemy named the Timekeeper.

BL4 is an absolute blast to play, especially with friends. I think that the new movement tech, including sliding, dashing, gliding, and double-jumping, pairs up with a billion different guns and character builds to create some truly fun gaming moments.

The main issue, though, is that a lot of gamers on PC haven't been able to get the game to run properly for them, or run at all. Performance issues plagued yesterday's PC launch, but the game is now out on console, too.

I struggled with getting the game to run properly in the pre-release build for the review period, but I was finally able to get it to play at a somewhat stable 60 FPS on the lowest settings. My rig is admittedly a bit older, but even players with above-recommended specs are reporting a myriad of issues, and many others are experiencing crashing issues and other bugs, so I'm curious what the temperature is among the players.

And so I turn to you, dear reader, to ask what your thoughts are on Borderlands 4 thus far. It's only day one, so things will likely change with updates and stability patches, but how are you feeling about it right now? Let us know in the poll and comments below.
