Path of Exile Pro's and cons

Pros:

Fantastic step up in quality. Graphics, music, animations and general gameplay.
All good shit GGG!

Combat & skills
Old PoE was kinda dull where you most of the time just used one skill over and over. I like that there are some synergies now to combine abilites.

Gameplay speed and difficulty
It might be a tad extreme slow/difficult atm, but think with some fine tuning it will be great.
Overall im all for less zoom, zoom gameplay. Here we can actually see whats happening and I can play with a friend.
And people that really, really want those 1 click to blow up whole screen - PoE 1 still exist.

Boss battles. So many of them! Yes its hard but overall it feels like I have more control over my character. In PoE it all felt just more messy and more one shot mechanics.



Cons
1.Talent tree feels a bit boring now. Don't get me wrong PoE 1 has alot of broken shit, like how easy you can stack insane life regen.
But idk PoE feels a bit less fun, due to alot of nodes feeling the same.

The loot is a bit too shitty. Once again don't want PoE 1s loot explosions, but this is a bit too cheap. Especially when fighting bosses only to receive like one or two blue items.

Classes at start don't feel balanced.
Atleast to me it felt waaay easier being ranged then for example playing monk. Maybe melee shines later on, but it gives a bit of a odd first impression when melee stuggles much more.

Whats your Pros and Cons?

Con: I came for an ARPG and got a isometric dark souls clone that isn't remotely better than Dark Souls/Elden Ring
