I got PoE2 last league and loved all of it. I haven't been into ARPGs in years, having last played PoE1 in 2017. The game was fun, paced well, and had a surprising lack of any game breaking bugs from my experience. There were certainly a few issues, but nothing that couldn't be bypassed in some way.

This time around it sounded like things were going to be even better. Druid was finally in the game, there are huge performance gains, and an awesome new 'create a dungeon' league to play around with. In theory. In practice, it's a buggy mess with loading times taking ages, especially to get into Clearfell, random freezes and crash to desktops, "Deadlocked" errors, elements not loading, loot not dropping, damage elements breaking, and these are just the ones off the top of my head right now.

Maybe it's because I have a lot of stuff going on in my life and this just feels more like a chore than a fun game, but I can't handle playing when it feels like a constant uphill battle when I've mirrored builds that I've seen other people crushing with, but my character struggles to live long enough to get past Act 1.

I hope the next league goes better, I'd love to be able to enjoy this game again, but it's a huge miss for me this time around.
