That's the entire point of the game! You have to kill all the visionaries in 1 loop to beat the game. The more you die, the more you learn about the world, who Colt is, who the visionaries are, how to defeat them, and the overall lore of the world. That's what I love about it.It's still on PS+ and it was given away for free on Amazon Prime and Epic store I think.
I tried giving it a chance multiple times but it is so boring and trash. I hate the world, the characters, the shooting. You restart from the beginning every time you die and you have to play a certain way to make progress. Hated it. Deleted.
