Gameplay

With every quest you complete (which are randomly generated but ultimately share the same 3-5 picks of ~15 unique goals) you get money and skill points, and you get a generous serving of them, which makes completing quests and getting 70 points to spend really saitisfying.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.

5089 has a richer and more developed story which ties into the other games in the series -- you don't need to have played them to understand 5089, but there are cool easter eggs for people who have.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
59 of 290 sampled reviews raised it
It has some limited (but useful and sometimes necessary) stealth mechanics, including suppressors for some weapon types, which combined with the system for stripping parts from found weapons and armor, reminds me somewhat of Fallout 4.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

It's really worth its money and quite enjoing once you've accepted the graphics ;)

quests I was able to get better weapons and gear and the game's difficulty seemed to be lifted off my shoulders.

16 of 290 sampled reviews raised it
This game also offers 2 player co-op mode, so you can do all of the above with a friend.
