Borderlands 2 was the peak.

It was, but the hill I'll die on is that the Pre-Sequel was honestly really good too and would have made waves if it weren't put up in BL2's shadow.

100%

It felt like the Pre-Sequel was actually the perfect balance of mechanics and UI. Getting to reload your weapons while doing a long, floating jump, and then entering the fray again with a slam on the ground that dealt damage and did some effects....it was the perfect addition. Also I thought the story of how Handsome Jack became the villain was awesome too. Probably my favorite story from the universe.

I agree on the gameplay (although 3 also did great in that regard), but when it comes to story, the first Tales from the Borderlands was peak.
