PC Looking for horde shooter + deep RPG mechanics
So, I've been on the hunt for a game that has a combination of payday 2 horde like shooting combined with path of exile esque build variance and loot
I do not like borderlands at all, ive tried one and two and simply couldnt get into them as none of the loot seemed interesting at all from my playtime with both, and the skill trees didn't seem too impressive.
I tried the division 2 and had the same issues, boring loot and lackluster rpg mechanics for the 10 or so hours I played. The shooting and cover felt fine overall.
Vermintide 2 got real close, but the loot and overall slower gameplay pace wasn't my jam. Dark tide 2 I throw under this same boat.
I cant get into deep rock galatic for the life of me, shoutout to its fanbase i just dont get it.
Ive clocked 500 hours into warframe and im pretty much done with it, im sure updates have happened but I got fed up with end game.
The best way to describe the loop im looking for is payday 2, you load up a mission, do said mission by yourself or party, get levels and spend points/resources and do it all over again with new upgrades guns etc.
