My return, and my leave again

I started playing path of exile 1 again after about a 3 year break, mostly because of the implementation of the pause feature. that alone basically allowed me to be able to play the game again.

so i hop in, and im having fun. i've been playing poe2 since beta launch, and i just love how in poe1 i feel like its way more build friendly. i feel like i can pick any skill i want and make it work with enough investment etc. more than that, i can make it work any several dozen different ways, which is awesome.

im quite casual gamer, maybe able to run like 5-10 maps a night, but im having fun and feeling progression. im loving my build (self-cast storm burst elementalist) and im feeling really strong.

starting to get upwards of t15, sometimes t16 maps and starting to enjoy the game less and less. why? mostly because of on-death effects. they're starting to become so frequent it feels like every single rare and every other pack of monsters are just riddled with on-death effects.

i already can hardly see anything in this game, let alone some dark coloured orb coming to me, slamming the ground, and leaving a ground degen that i cannot see etc etc.
it just feels absolutely terrible when 95% of your deaths are after the monsters have died. thats ridiculous.

but i enjoyed my time for what it was, but i won't keep playing. there are too many other games to enjoy, and for now poe2 doesn't have nearly as many on-death effects.....yet

let people play the game....so thats my feedback, take it for what its worth.
