Campaign was god tier good, excellent story and fun! BUT I feel like this game is too punishing on the players time with some of the mechanics. I got really frustrated at act 2 before the boss where there was hardly any check points! And It feels so bad when the monsters respawn when you die. That being said the boss mechanics feel fun, engaging and it feels great when you beat them...
The real bad - MAPS. I really hate it tbh, I actually feel like my time is being wasted every time I open a map and die to a random thing. It's WAYYYY too punishing, losing the map mechanics, mods and events. The system in PoE 1 was fair. You die to much you loose the map, but dying even once, you lose it all! I don't feel any sense of progression when it happens. I feel like my time is wasted, and not respected and I feel like quitting every time it happens! Which is such a shame because this game has some of the best ARPG mechanic's and features out there and it's beautifully crafted with how it looks and plays.

If your looking for a fun challenging campaign experience this game is unmatched.
If your looking for a good endgame experience I really cannot recommend it with how it is currently.
I don't like to give a thumbs down but I can't enjoy it with how punishing it is currently.
