Walk up to area full of rather boss looking dudes, fuck em all up, take their gear and then spend 30 minutes ooing and aaahing over said gear has been a cornerstone gameplay loop for many games for decades.

It's, dare I say it?

fun?

Fill the area with cool lore, art direction and fold it into a story and hey, maybe it's a little more fun.
