Does playing the game on the PS5 really have to be this laggy?

Anyone playing on ps5 right now? How do we check if the poe 2 servers are on life support or burning down? Game is laggy af and it's been sorta laggy in towns since launch but right now even loading into the game is taking absurdly long and if it finally finishes loading into town.. everyone is zooming in and out, time stops then starts a half a sec then on and on. Game's having a stroke atm or idk.

Dude on xbox i can t play corrupted nexus with Abyss tech bc the game literally freezes and goes 1 fps
Loadings are very slow, black screen when opening the menu inside cities, performance is really bad, fire skills and explosions are dropping my game to 15fps.
im on a map with just the mechanic and ritual and playing with a grand total of 5 fps on base ps5 last league i could play the game this league its borderline impossible in half the maps im having to make the hard dicission to decide if im going to move to pc cause it seems the preformance dont get better it gets worse and it makes me sad i love this game and iv put prob too much time and effort into it :(


the sound glitches are just as bad but i can live with those as long as the game is playable
Has GGG provided an answer regarding console optimization yet?

You can't transfer stashtabs from PC to PS5.

On top of that, the game is completely unplayable.

PS5 players are being severely impacted; they're the only ones unable to play normally for three leagues and are forced to repurchase stashtabs.

GGG, please do something about this, because it's not looking good.
It's not just PS5 I'm on Xbox series X and it's unplayable due to the lag.
