Dont take recommendations from the lord of grease, ever.

This is the guy that bold faced lied about Aliens: Colonial marines and released the sad sack of shit that was duke nukem: forever.

No minimap? Ugh.mt husband have played every Borderlands game together multiple times and that minimap is our saving grace. We are constantly splitting up to do different things or grab stuff and the map makes it so much easier to find one another. Will be a bit chaotic going without, maybe they will make it an option in coop or something.

I actually liked not having a minimap in BL1. I missed it at first coming from BL2 but it made me get to know the areas a lot better, which in turn made the game feel more like a connected world.

BL2 felt more like a sequence of levels than an open world.

This could be due to other choices in the game design but I think the minimap plays a big part in it.
