It is just so frustratingly hard. I haven’t clicked with the combat yet,

Took a while for me too.
At first I was at disbelieve "this certianly cant be more difficult than x, so why am I so bad?", and then "ah ok, I am trying to much to avoid being hit when instead all I need to do is what I always do: kill before being hit!"

The permanent weapon upgrades at first probably seem like only a small upgrade, but unlocking new weapon skills and weapons really makes a difference.
The first gun I really enjoyed was the "shotgun" with solid shell instead of spread, and the "ooze lobber" seemed too strong.
