YES YES YES YES YES

Hope it's more like 2016 than Eternal to be honest

Eternal didn't grab me like '16. I loved it when I felt "I" was optimising the combat to be most effective by frantically switching weapons but Eternal making that basically a necessity and the core gameplay loop was just exhausting to be honest

I loved it when panic mode set in and I could just whip out the super shotty and widdle enemies down with good movement, as opposed to having to use the most optimal weapons at all times or you're basically shooting spit balls at demons
