@matrix I think that was my biggest issue with the game. It's trying to be one of those loot and shoot gear shooters like Borderlands, without anywhere near as much weapon variety or mechanical depth to its gameplay to carry it; instead of finding new guns with notable differences, it just feels like "Oh this new gun does 1.2% more damage" without any other difference, and instead of leveling up unlocking new skills or perks that significantly change gameplay, the majority of them are Fallout 4 style things like "Do 10% more damage with this weapon type". At least they finally replaced that utterly worthless skill that makes you invisible while swimming - which was somehow even more useless in 2077 than it was in Fallout.

I always describe 2077's gameplay as being like the worst of Borderlands mixed with the worst of Fallout 4.
