Excellent news on the UI improvements. LOL at beer bottles for scopes. Thank heaven they will be making a better ending (first was a good game, but ending kind of meh).
Can't wait for my next installment of "Diablo as a FPS". And, extremely glad they're sticking with the cel-shaded art style. Lots of people seem to want it to be more realistic looking like other shooters, but a lot of what drew me into the game was their different art style and direction that made me enjoy the game a lot more even though the environs were fairly repetitive.
Borderlands was my 2009 GOTY and I have no doubt that Borderlands 2 will be in the running for my 2012 GOTY. I just popped in Borderlands a couple of weeks ago after a year off and cannot believe how much fun I'm having...again!
You can tell that the changing of the art style really made them rush at the end, I love the new UI. The one in the first game is functional and that's about it.
Having played the first game on the 360 the UI problems were only noticeable in Split-Screen, but being that I am buying Borderlands 2 on the PC this time around I am glad they are paying particular attention to that aspect. Great to have Dev's ACTUALLY listen to and implement feedback like they are.

It really sounds like they are making the right improvements this time around but not changing the things that worked the last time.
I'm really looking forward to this game!
Great interview, Cat.
