Why can we freeze or stun things?

The last update is another step into zoom zoom kill everything instantly in gigantic AoE .... this actually starts to looks worse than PoE1 in that regard.

I had high hopes that PoE2 would offer proper methodical combat where all the different status effects have an actual use. Turns out it just becomes PoE1 where everything just dies before it could even freeze or get stunned.

Why? Is this really what everyone wants?

looks like they are not interested anymore on SLOW and NICE combat.

zoom-zoom ADHD builds from poe1 are right here.
I hate that.
