Anyone else spending 99% of their gaming time in Borderlands 2? I am.

I'll pick up Spiral Knights every now and again, mostly for mist crafting (CE is so expensive, I have done very little in SK in quite a while), but my primary game will be Borderlands 2 for a long time.

Has anyone seen a hit in the SK community, or has this release been mostly unnoticed?

I've been playing Borderlands

I've been playing Borderlands 2 lots lately, great game, lots of awesome new gear, skills and abilities :D

I've quit SK for now due to massive connection lag issues that honestly only exist in SK. I'd go into details but let's just leave it at this: I need a connection faster than 10 MB/s down and 2 MB/s up to play SK.

I've noticed that the SK community has died a bit in the past few weeks from CE hitting 9k/100 and a few other things. I'm gonna stick to Borderlands 2, Minecraft, and a few other games for a while, since I'm done with trying to fix the absurd amount of lag I have in SK.

Borderlands 2 <333 And no...If I say Borderlands 2 to most people they're like, "Wut's dat?" :v

I'm loving it at the moment, but still find SK addicting.

Same story here. I don't play SK much except for maybe a danger mission or a chat with some guildies and old friends.

This game lost its luster when the focus of improving the gameplay itself shifted too much for my tastes. The danger missions are good, and the guildhall update will hopefully be good, but lets face it- the last real great gameplay patch before September's missions was the Bomber gear buff.

I'm hoping for one of two things. One, they give us a solid ETA on balance/bringing back stuff like the Tortodrone/the guildhall update/etc., or two, the Guildhall update rolls out as the game's most massive patch with most of the aforementioned.

On the topic of BL2, it is one of the most fun games I've played in a very long time. Axton and Zer0 are heaps of fun to play, can't say much about Salvador an Maya since I haven't gotten too far with them. The writing is hilarious at times and brilliantly written. The different ways to play your character according to what you like works great. The music is awesome.

You get the idea.

True, true

Yeah, SK needs some work. It's fun, and I won't be done playing it for quite a while, but there is a lot of focus on things that I am not interested in, like accessories. It also seems like the newbs and the pros are the ones that get new stuff, and the knights in the middle get very little.

BL2 has been tons of fun! I started a Maya character and she is ridiculously lucky! I got an Orange weapon on Knuckledragger... he's the first boss if anyone doesn't know. She get's all sorts of good guns, and they mostly all have scopes, which I love.

If your reading this and have not played Borderlands or Borderlands 2, give it a shot, it's a lot of fun, and there is not really any lag to speak of.

I'm primarily playing BL2

I'm primarily playing BL2 these days, as well. SK needs a shot of content (though my homies in EoS keep me popping in often)
