I don't understand why so many people like this game.
My impression of it was that it was a sloppy, broken, mess.
It had the wackiest balance I have ever seen in any RPG-like game, where spending points on stats was basically a trap and instead you had to invest everything in equipment upgrades. The fact that it's possible to finish the game with a level 1 character and rely SOLELY on upgraded equipment is proof of that the balance is WAAAY out of wack.
You aren't supposed to, but you can. That kind of demonstrates the problem with the balancing. Stats should have been much more relevant rather than being completely dwarfed in power by the equipment. I remember the resist stat was actually just completely useless and if you spent too many points on it without realizing what you were doing, you might as well just start a new character.
Borderlands 2 is okay, but it has it's share of problems as well. It is reasonably balanced though. The disappointment is that multiplayer is kind of a cluster**** with people just going off and firing wildly at anything that moves. It's not all that satisfying.
which is your favourite type of video game?

Yeah Borderlands is kind of childish, and cartoonish, But there's not that many good online multiplayer games.
