Tbh, I could never really get into borderlands. I play more pvp than PvE, so that could be part of the problem. Also, I dislike how cartoonish borderlands seems. I like it to feel somewhat concrete, somewhat real. Obviously destiny isn't "real" but the gunplay is solid and it feels more like reality. Honestly, it's probly just the borderlands graphics that drove me away. (Yeah, not 5 reasons, but... I don't care :) ...)
