So no on the giving myself the most uber parts and weapons. there are many more things in this game that are worth my time than going and farming another pitchfork, black hole, ect.ect. I would much rather spend my time working on missions, badass challenges, builds, raid boss strategies, easter egg hunts, dlc content and exploration. I will even change it to invite only if need be.Īs stated I agree quite a lot with your viewpoints but I personally hate having to refarm something I already have for me that takes away from my enjoyment of the game. once it does there is a kick option and I have no issue using it. Which is fine by me as long as it does not hurt my game or take away from my fun. Most are friends of friends that join their friend. Frankly I have had some people in my games that were cheating and using lots of modded and/or gibbed items. (from some of the comments here I think a lot of people are using the editor in a method that allows us to keep the weapons we have already farmed.)Ģ) Does the individual interfere with your gameplay. I think there are a few key points that need to asked and investigatedġ) does the individual actually just give themselves the best loot and run through sham-fleeting or bee-hawking. I generally take to heart a lot of opinions here but in a thread like this there is a lot of judgements without questions going on I am sure this is unintentional. While I agree with alot of the points there is also a lot of assumption going on here. As somone who played the same MMO for 10 years and spent sometimes months working toward a single achievement or item I can say that for some of us, time is better spent on other things. He didnt spend $59 to do something he hates all day long. He's tired of farming the same item over and over. In the end, they both have the same norfleet launcher, except Tom did something probably more enjoyable in the game he already put in his time on Verm, he already had that experience 6-8 times. Tom just opens gibbed and upgrades the one he has. John spends all day spawning Verm before finally getting a drop, selling off his old norfleet, and upgrading to the new one. You could look at it this way: John wants a higher level Norfleet. Just use gibbed, skip the monotony, and enjoy the game you bought.
Of course you can farm it if you really want to. Thanks.įarming loot you already have is very depressing and monotonous. Is using Gibbed ruining the fun for everyone? Does it enhance or weaken your gameplay experience? If you use Gibbed, what would your opinion be? Am I an asshole for using Gibbed in the presence of other players?
So I'm conflicted, but that's where you guys come in. I was also told that, to a player who earned all their gear in-game, using Gibbed would be rather insulting, as all gear in Gibbed isn't earned at all, its just handed to you. Now my friends made the point that using Gibbed can potentially ruin the game for not only myself, but other players, and that I'm taking away from the game if I use this software. I also made the point that in its current state, the game is just too hard if you don't have legendary gear. I only Gibbed in gear that is perfectly possible to obtain in-game.īasically, I made the points that the majority of BL2's community is ok with using Gibbed, and that it can be really helpful when you don't have time to play BL2 as much as you want to (with school and all). Just to note, I do not make or use modded weapons. I've been using Gibbed since the Krieg DLC was released, and it has been extremely useful to me for the past few months, but I had an argument with my friends last night that's making me question using it. r/BorderlandsGuns for trading gear, as opposed to begging for it r/PandoranRedCross accepts powerleveling and duping requests, unlike us Same subject matter as here, different (colorful!) style r/Borderlands2, /r/BorderlandsPreSequel, and /r/Borderlands3 all allow link posts.
