Baldur’s Gate 3 - Amazing story and writing and music. Personally CRPG's are fighting an uphill battle just because I play a lot of TTRPG's and so they have to compete with that mindset. From that point of view the balancing felt really weird at certain points and certain mechanics just made no sense to me. Absolutely worth the play but be ready for a 70+ hour game.
Bastion - Just going to say this about all the Super Giant Games now, they are all works of art in all aspects, visuals, gameplay, music, writing. Bastion is kind of a dark country inspired adventure through a world that has literally gone to pieces. Good action, one of the best choices to ever be presented to me in a game

Bloodborne - My favorite Soulsborne, first one I ever beat. I love the aesthetic and Lovecraftian Horror elements are just *chef's kiss*. The combat is a lot more aggressive than other Soulsborne games, and forces you to interrupt the enemies more.

Borderlands - An absolute classic gem. FPS Looter Shooter. Good music, iconic characters and insanely quotable. Gameplay is perhaps a little repetative but worth the play. Especially with friends.

Borderlands 2 - My personal favorite in the franchise. The characters are all great, the writing phenomenal. Same great design concepts but more quality of life improvements, plus they ditched certain mechanics that just didn't make sense in the previous game.

Borderlands 3 - Not the strongest installment in the franchise but still a fun game to play with friends. There are some moments in the story that generally anger most of the fans I have spoken to. But, there is still a lot of that same Borderlands character. They at least tried to extend the lifespan of the game in the end game and the DLC does have some good story moments. Play it with a good group of friends and you can't go wrong.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel - Often refered to as the black sheep of the franchise. I think it is a decent game that unfortunately was tied to a franchise with a lot of expectations. Overall the story is pretty good and does a decent job of delivering on back story to the villain of BL2. Is it a must play? No. But if you want more Borderlands and don't want a re-run of the other games check it out.
