In recent days, we’ve witnessed a lot of backlash online regarding Borderlands 4 performance. According to Randy Pitchford, a day one patch “does a lot” to resolve many of the game’s issues, but he wants “everyone to have realistic expectations for performance.” Yeah, but we’re paying $70+ for the game, so it’d better run.
