Hopefully, GGG will have realized by now what the right course of action is if they really care about their game.... if they continue to give in to pressure to make it a copy of PoE1.. all their work would have been for nothing.
I can't imagine how I would feel as a dev that cared about the game being good and working on animations and all kinds of details, for the game to just devolve into this:

Mixing the two directions just makes it feel confused right now.
Thats the entire state of poe2 currently. Like two games in one and both parts are incompatible with each other in many ways.
Looks like two game designers pulling the game in different directions and different playerbases.
Imo they could make it please both playerbases, by configuring in atlas passives etc.etc. but balancing this would be a hell :D

Seems kind of obvious to me that they're courting the PoE1 players for now because those are the ones playing the game consistently and giving them good data and sorting out the technical issues.
If they were genuinely planning on building for that audience they would have shelved the project because they already have that audience. No studio is going to build an entirely new title for an audience they already have 100% of.
They're keeping the PoE1 players happy for now because they make good testers. The tower decision seemed big but compared to what these guys actually want the game to look like it's a relatively minor change. Like they were already bitching about the campaign length before 0.3 by the time the entire thing is complete none of them are going to have the patience to finish it (something something "slog").

I play standart league and decided to start a melee witch and to NOT pull any uniques or rares prepared for leveling from the chest and the bosses were not that easy and I already know my way around them so I think that difficulty is about right for a newcoming player who could have a hard time just because they had a bad RNG and were unable to raise resistances high enough. Bosses can be difficult in maps.
When I played warrior with two hander in 0,1 bosses were not excatly difficult either, you just roll around them and spank their ass.

I'm almost done with the campaign experience (aka. the game) this league and like everyone else has said already, the game is all too easy. Previous leagues felt much better in terms of challenge and as consequence felt as a much more rewarding experience. Just fyi, I'm not playing meta or using a guide.
The positives of 0.3 to me are a lot and include sprinting which is very well implemented and makes backtracking a complete non-issue, the pacing of the game feels very good, crafting also feels good (except blues due to the 2 mods restriction, and runes which are very scarce), the controls are even more responsive, and of course the new act.
For the negatives, the most disappointing aspect for me was the boss encounters. They are nowhere near what we were promised from GGG. In my experience with a casual, non-min/maxed build I was downing them in seconds. No mechanics, no threat, no excitement, nothing. Just loot pinatas. Where is the "at least a couple of minutes of fighting"? That has to change asap.
Another thing that has to change is how fast the player can start basting. It's way too fast right now, resulting in an underwhelming character progression. Act 1 has to slow down quite a lot.
Visibility/performance/density. All of these are 1 category and I think having meme density in this game just feels bad. Maybe if there was a specific mode that had that, could be ok but as of right now the experience is quite frankly terrible. Jank upon jank. Horrible, not fun at all.
At this point, Poe 2 is barely a game with mostly all of its challenge striped away. If GGG wants to go down the path of further trivializing the game in favor of the casino sim enthusiasts, I think they should seriously rethink that. I know I'm not interested in "playing" a casino sim and I know most gamers are not in for that experience either. Unless there's some challenge brought back into the campaign very soon, or with 0.4, I don't see myself and players like me staying. PoE 2 has all the tools necessary to thrive as a game, unlike its predecessor. It would be mad shame for GGG to reduce it into an arcade blaster for casino sim fans.
I think PoE2 is not for you

I'm pretty sure PoE2 is supposed to be a game, so I think I'm at the right place. Maybe some of you guys should check next door. Your casino sim should be there.

game is not advertised as 'casino sim' nor 'fastest ARPG ever', actually quite on the contrary.
Every interview speaks of meaningful combat, hard bosses, etc. every reveal mentioned it will be a separate game from poe1 so it doesn't compete with it.
