That game has probably the worst difficulty progression of all games I've played. The first 5-10 hours are brutal. Can't even fight a chicken without getting torn to shreds. Then it levels off rather abruptly and balance is quite good for a long time and towards the end you get really OP.
IIRC bows were the strongest weapons, which is weird when you have laser guns and stuff like that. Because of the armor vs damage system the higher the damage per hit the better.
Only reason I kept going was because the world is really well built and interesting and once you get through the initial shitshow it's really fun. But damn those first hours are a mess.
Elex has been on my to-play list for a long time. I don't mind the progression, from what you describe seems the same as their Gothic games and I love those.
