One thing thats great about borderlands is there is so many different ways to play. I heard you can play the main story, or you can say "screw the story" and just explore the planet of Pandora, for different areas or sidequests. my question is when you first start to play borderlands what are you going to do?

Me personality im going to just explore Pandora level up search for hidden areas and of corse get nice gear before i start my missions. So let me know what you plan to do with this epic game.

Same!

 I like your style, i'm not gonna jump straight into the story-line, i'm gonna have an adventure around the awesome world of Pandora, find some neat places, do some looting and level up a bit. I hope this is the kind of game that you can sit back and enjoy your surroundings, you see something cool on the horizon and head over to it, can't wait! :)

Well...

I'll just blitz through the first playthrough, then on New game +, I'll do it all.  (And find all the guns!)

it will be like zelda, you
it will be like zelda, you have to play linear for the first hour or so ( don't they drop you in firestone until you get a vehicle to jump over a wall ? ) so after that 2hr. initial linear portion i'll just drive around a lot, die a lot, shoot a lot. circle the whole map, talk to everyone, then i'll start the early quests when i'm leveled up and it's easy.

I'm going to be doing

the main quest, and side quests, but in between if I see something interesting hiding or out in the open I'll stop by. I dont want to wander around leveling up and go back to do the quests because it'll be too easy and not very challenging. I'd rather have the mobs be a level or more higher than me

well duh

same as leonhart, cuz in every game like this you have to do everything, and if you cant get to the max level on the first playthrough, then you'll have to do it again on a new game +

I'm simply going to do what I

I'm simply going to do what I feel like doing. :-)  I'll be following the story, but when I feel like just farming cash or PvPing or helping friends or exploring, I'll do that.  I'm taking the burn-out lessons I learned from WoW and using on BL to enjoy the game to the fullest. :-)
