I wasn't sure what he was talking about until around level 5/6 when you have a full arsenal and you no longer have the freedom to wiggle and make mistakes (on Ultraviolence, at least). Once you enter Hell, there's absolutely no reason you shouldn't just be slamming out rockets to kill everything as quickly as possible. You don't have the time or a reason to conserve ammo or worry about running close enough to do glory kills, since usually the effort of running towards a glowing enemy and NOT shooting everything else will balance out whatever bits of health they drop.

I do disagree that the grenades are totally useless, as the hologram one essentially makes you invisible for 5 seconds, but the others definitely fit in with he heavy assault rifle as half measures to check all the console boxes. I also find it weird how barren the armor upgrade pathing is, to the point where any sane person would look at it and just mash it up with the bloated rune system.

Still a fun game though! I got it when it was $60 an almost immediately got a refund, but it's definitely worth $30 to me. I usually only have an hour or so of free time these days, so I've been choosing this over Factorio or Rimworld.
