I struggled with it as well. My main problem seemed to be that no matter how many side quests I did, I was still underleveled for most enemy encounters. I did read that upgrading gear is worth more than levels, but it was such a grind to go and find all the materials that I eventually got bored. Shame though, because it’s really well made.

But the problem is that these are bad faith actors being engaged with in good faith. They are committing crimes and causing irreversible damage and need to be stopped immediately. The US gov has been taken over by fascists and everyone is acting like it’s business as usual.
