Path of Exile 2 has the most infuriating friction mechanics

Stun on sprint for 9 business days
Monster push
Tight hallways packed with monsters sprinting at you faster than you can move
BOSSES THAT PUSH YOU INTO THEIR OWN MECHANICS WITH AUTO ATTACKS???????

Who thought this will be fun? Challenging combat and player agency is fun. This bullshit is NOT fun.

You don't get stunned if you don't run head on into enemies attacking you. That's not what that mechanic is intended for.

Monster push? You want everything to be immaterial so you can just walk through enemies? o_O

Monsters sprinting faster than you can move? You should probably increase your movement speed. Maybe add a haste aura companion. And not expect to always be the fastest living being that exists.

Bosses that try to hit you with their attacks? Oh no.

Sounds like the typical PoE "I died and I'm mad because it can't be my fault of because that's part of playing a game, it must be poor design!"
Souls-inspired ARPG game 😄😄😄😄😄
This game has one major issue: it lacks vision for players with a wide base.
