People are suspecting they did have a different version of this game but scrapped a bunch of concepts and had to rush this version out in a short amount of time. Such as monowire isn't anything like how it was in the trailers. And you used to be able to jack directly into people. Now all you have to do is just look at them and to make things worse, Legendary ping lets your quickhacks work through walls.
I'm going to start a new game and do perkless run, common guns only, no tech/shotty. Maybe then the game will be hard.
I wouldn't be surprised. It would be so cool have an actual sword fight with the block and counter system but everyone dies in 1 hit so you can't really. Imagine how cool it would be to have a proper duel with someone that has mantis blades while you have a Katana.
High level Sandevistans just completely break the game. You can hit someone so many times before they can even react it's stupid. I had a fight with the Sasquatch boss lady with the hammer in the mall. She went down without being able to even swing her weapon.
