Should at least check new drops you get for face and chest slots. Masks can give resists, cyber headsets give quickhack speed, body armor vests give armor, tactical vests can give reload speed, etc. I've hit the weight limit a few times from picking up guns, but that's mostly because I tend to sell white and green drops for the cash since you end up swimming in those mats regardless.
Money is definitely easier now though, like I was saying yesterday. I set my save up for PL by doing almost everything in Watson besides All Foods and the heist, and even after paying off Vik I had well over 200k eddies. I also don't recall being L13 prior to All Foods in any previous playthrough either, and this is basically the same way I did it every other time. Already like 28 in Netrunner and 19 in Headhunter skills too, which is funny since the conversion process on my two endgame saves that had most of the old skills maxed didn't give me over level 40 in anything.
