Based on something that has nothing to do with the actual gameplay?

Yes, and that's exactly my point. It had nothing to do with the gameplay or anything at all for that matter. This only strengthens my suspicion that Borderlands with it's bazillion guns and slick TF2-like graphics presentation is all hype with no substance.
I may be wrong and Borderlands may be the best thing since sliced bread but I tend to follow my hunches. It's when I ignore my hunches that I get 'burned'.

That's nowhere near TF2 graphics. Look up again.
This game is going to be awesome, too bad for those who will be skipping.

I seem to have a bad habit of assuming that people understand the meaning I'm trying to convey. Perhaps I would have made a good lawyer.
When I say TF2-like graphics, I'm mainly referring to the cel shading and that the player characters are very obviously & visually class based. I do concede that the art STYLE is different than TF2.
If you're a fan of cel shading or the style sells it for you, great but it doesn't impress me much.
It's a wait and see if it lives up to the hype game imo. How many games have you bought or played that didn't live up to it's surrounding hype?
Sorry, but it smells like 'Vista' to me.

But this isn't cell shading. Putting a black border around things doesn't make it cell shading. In fact, cell shading can also be done without black borders (although it often becomes confusing).
TF2 didn't have cell shading either, it just as cartoon like character designs with almost pastel like colors.
