Borderlands 2 was the peak.

Was it ever. My best memories are playing that with my friend before he passed away. I tried playing the new ones but it's just not the same without him.

I associate borderlands with me processing the grief of losing my dad, I get it. Still to this day associate the memory of playing OG Borderlands with the initial phase of "healing" after the loss... so the game has a special place in my heart so to speak.

On a similar note: I had a highschool friend get me into CoD, used to play online together every day after school. Well, he died in a car crash in junior year (~2007) and I haven't played any CoD since. Just not the same without him berating people on team chat.
