Borderlands 4 can give players a blast from the past by reintroducing a weapon type that debuted in the series' first game. Alongside the unique abilities of each games' protagonists, the huge variety of weapons that players can collect and loot over the course of the game is a major draw for the series. The more interesting and eye-catching the weapons in the game are, the more incentive the player has to try out more of them over the course of the playthrough. For this reason, Borderlands 4 would benefit from having as many cool weapons as possible.
