A thorough playthrough could stretch from 6 to 8 hours, so the 880 MS point asking price is reasonable, even though awkward scripting makes the ending oddly anticlimactic. Pirate's Booty scales well to wherever you are on your first or second playthrough of the game (new characters be warned: enemies start at level 15) and even packs in two high-level raid bosses for those seeking a serious challenge. This psychotic demon pirate is about to turn on his buddies, thanks to the Siren's ability. These fresh tactics make things feel lively and a bit different, spurring you onward and making it easy to relish the challenge of combat. At first they seem like little more than desert bandits, but then they start disappearing temporarily, drawing health from you, or dragging you into melee range with huge anchors that they throw through the air. The new pirate enemies, on the other hand, have a few interesting tricks up their billowy sleeves. From a creature standpoint, the mealy worms and sauced-up stalkers don't provide much excitement. Of course, all of these places are filled with things that want to kill you. Sparkling streams and colorful pools are a welcome sight for your weary eyes, and a few other places have a similarly novel appeal. Then later, you journey underground to a lush, glittering cavern, and the vibrant color palette is almost palpably refreshing. You can shake off this sense of deja vu by skimming around the dry seabed on a new hover-vehicle, squishing angry worms, and getting ridiculously floaty air off of jumps. The dried-up resort town of Oasis (the spot you must fast-travel to in order to start the DLC) is saturated with the dusty brown tones that grew tiresome during the first hours of the original Borderlands. Conversely, the environments don't start off strong, but they get better as you go on.
