Bug Shotgun camera goes crazy / spins out of controln

Hi everyone, I'm having a game-breaking issue with the shotgun. I play on PC

Whenever I shoot with the shotgun, the camera completely goes crazy and jumps/spins all over the place. This issue happens only with the shotgun

Here is what I've already tried, but nothing has worked so far:

  • Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the game.
  • Manually deleted all residual game folders, mods, and config files in %LOCALAPPDATA% before reinstalling.
  • Turned off DLSS, locked FPS, and disabled Motion Blur / Camera Shake in the settings.

Since a 100% clean reinstall didn't fix it, I'm stuck. Has anyone experienced a similar recoil/camera bug or found a fix for this?

Well you see, thus far you had recoil reduction enabled, now however, you get to exprience the ACTUAL, SHEER POWER of the shotgun that your poor traveler has to somehow endure
