How are you considering the playabillity of the game? I just purchased it on sale. Any tips on how to best play it?
Well... Did you played the first one before on the home consoles/pc? I assume not.
First of all, do not go straight to the end of the mainquest. It's filled with sidequests and they give you sweet sweet loot. Enjoy the humour and the characters, each one is unique (even the NPC). If you have the dlc's you have 6 playable characters instead of the vanilla 4.
Try them, each one is versatile but specialized in one category (ex. Zer0 is your stealth guy), also they are customizable in their appereance and skills.
The loot: Each weapon/shield/class mod it's different. They are generated randomly (most of them, not the ''Unique (blue) and Legendaries (orange), they usually drop from bosses or at the end of a quest and they have fixed effects/stats)
And, the last advice is: @Chrisssj2 enjoy the game spoiler free! You will learn everything by just playing. Also, it has a very good story! :'(

Thanks for the explaination i played only 30 min of borderlands 1 lol. My question was mostly as to, game fluidity and bugs since i read there were some @ game release.. but with these updates im wondering how it runs now. I dont like the idea of reloading missions because of a crash if u cant save anywhere..

How do you actually save manually in this game? or atleast know it's being saved...?

With the updates it's a lot better. Just some minor framedrops and bugs (like characters with missing audio sometimes in cutscenes). I didnt' have to reset one time.

I see so it will save the exact spot and not revert to checkpoints when you manually quit?
Err. no. If you quit>save>restart you will respawn at the start of the map or at the last valid Fast Travel station. Not at the same point you quitted, so it's kind of an ''escape button'' to the last FT. I suggest you to play a little more before saving so if you find a FT station near trigger it and you don't have to walk again/kill enemies when you load your game.

    Got eye insurance? Some do custom laser cutting engraving same day in office
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I do but the optometrist I got my glasses at last year was expensive as fuck even WITH my insurance, so I'm gonna order on Zenni and see if my insurance will reimburse it. And if they won't, then, oh well, still will be cheaper anyway
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    $90 for the safety glasses on Zenni, vs my daily wear glasses were >$200 after insurance
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Haven't been to the eye doc in like 3 years but was pretty surprised they cut the glass in office had the in like an hour ready
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    That's pretty sweet, I had to wait like a week or so for mine to be ready
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Lookin at buying another pair of regular glasses too. And maybe prescription sunglasses
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah most just ship off to a lab could always call around to see if new ones have in office glass cutters
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    too much effort + im shy and social anxiety :( lmao
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I just wear them when I drive cause I'd like to actually read signs
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Think they said I'm far sighted or some bs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My eyes aren't that bad, I need mine for driving but ever since I got my latest pair I wear them all the time when I'm home now, I never used to before
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm near sighted though
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I feel like docs just say you're this and that for the insurance claims half the time
    +1
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But even my computer monitors, that are like 3ft away when I'm leaning back in my chair, so much easier to see now with my glasses than without
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Doc was cool though, he measured my old glasses and I wanted to try different contacts than I had had previously and he's like "hmmm I bet you're this strength and that strength" and damn dude was dead on the money
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    lmao that clip
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Know a guy who did laser surgery for like 2g but argued you'd never need glasses again
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    laser eye surgery scares me
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    The thought of any kind of surgery shit being done on my eyes gives me unbelievable amounts of dread and anxiety, and with the potential risks or side effects that laser eye surgery has, I don't think my eyes are bad enough to warrant it. I can see without my glasses - not great, but not bad either.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah I feel that if it gets to the point where all I see is blurry then I might consider if
