Turns out Stella Montis is full of quests.

It's also full of PvPers.

ARC Raiders

EDIT: I don't know if late evening's a bad time or if the game's got a hidden PvPers-only list that I've been dropped into for daring to return fire and kill people or what, but everyone, literally everyone, I've come across has immediately fired on me.

Dunno what I'm supposed to do here, die I guess? It's basically me playing battle royale which is a significantly different genre to the looter-shooter I'm after.

EDIT2: Tried going after a rocketeer. I was winning, but a second one showed itself which along with its hornet/wasp patrol. If I had more time? Sure, I'd have killed it easily enough. Would've been a slog but y'know.
Instead I had 5 minutes. Which was by far not enough time to solo two rocketeers.

EDIT3: The game's doing it again, it's dropping me in purely PvP rounds.

I should have won this one. One guy attacked me and I juked him. A second guy teamed up, but as soon as we encountered a third PvPer he betrayed me. I executed both. A fourth guy came after me in the metro, very obviously looking for someone to kill because they were guns out sneaking around. A fifth comes down, gets some shots on me. I land one on them, and I land a second but the bullet literally phased straight through them. I had an Anvil IV, it two taps people with light shields regardless of where you hit. Except apparently when they turn fucking ethereal or something. I'm beyond pissed, I had a *lot* of good loot from that run on top of my amazing gun that I've now lost because of that horseshit. They wouldn't have had a shot if they hadn't dropped in on me with half health, no shield, and one shot in the cylinder too.

I don't think I've been pissed off this much by a boss fight, even if it's just a minigame at that. The Cubos Jr. fight is a painful combination of Bomberman with the controls being a straight rip from Crypt of the Necrodancer. The boss seems like it doesn't move to the same beat, and just like CotN, if you get off-beat, you're cooked(which is why I never got very far in CotN). Plus there's too much in the way of fireworks to actually see your position.
