From an Average Player

I've played POE1 (290+ hrs) and 0.1 POE2 (230+ hrs).

The Good
- Graphics, environments are very interesting and attention to detail is very good.
- Story, character/NPC interactions, and conversations.
- Difficulty I think is about right.

The Not So Good
- Campaign length. 29 hours to get through the 6 acts. I like to go through most of map, mostly due to bad loot rng, so I probably could get it down to 20 by straighter objectives. Still seems high. Will
- Maps. Too many dead ends.
- Mob pack density. You'll walk around and there'll be no mobs, all a sudden you have 5+ mob groups attacking you. Dodge rolling around to get out of this scenario is not interesting gameplay.
- Mobs off screen shooting at jumping into character. If I can't see them on screen, is it.
- Don't get enough gear drops for playing class. I want to play merc, not sorc, witch, etc. It'll be helpful to get more gear that character could use, not gear for other classes.
- RNG to high. Don't get enough currency for rare items. Get bad affix on item and out of exalt or regal, hard to progress.
- Couple bosses are very annoying (phase 2 Jamanra) due to too many attacks on screen at once, hard to see. Difficult if you don't have the gear due to bad RNG.
- Still couple useless item attributes. I can't see many people wanting lower requirements.
- Trade. Selling and buying. I don't have/want time to spend trying to track down a person who is online and will sell me an item.

Bugs
Played as a crossbow mercenary
- Player mouse input stops (PC). Not stunned, I can dodge roll, just can't fire weapon. Have to switch bolts, reload, eventually 5 secs it works again.
- Disconnected during first Corrupted Nexus map, now gone and don't know how to progress.

Thanks, hope to be back in next major patch.

lower requirements is not a useless stat. there are hybrids dex+int str+dex or even dex+str+int out there and this stat is useful for them.
