I know what you mean. That just shows the quality of Gearbox's design in this aspect. The game's still fun no matter what level you're playing. It is to me anyway, as I've started over multiple times (the best indication of a great game) like I've done with HL2, ME1, 2, GoW1, 2 &3 & Deus Ex:HR.Yeah I figured that was going to be the case. Ugh.
Part of me doesn't care enough though and wouldn't mind just making a new character from scratch anyway...
