The Infinite Hunger fight is awful

I just did the Infinite Hunger fight for the second time... It's not fun, it's not challenging, it's just fucking stupid. It may be the worst thing I have ever encountered in a video game in my entire life.

Didn't die in either fight, just spent like over half an hour simply wandered around in the several digestion phases with no idea on where to go, as no clear indication is given on how to find the exit. Long enough that twice I hit the limit for mobs to spawn. Long enough that PoE began to dip in framerate from the memory leak bug, or whatever it is that is going on.

No minimap. No direction indicator. Sometimes multiple islands within range of each other, sometimes some some far, far away from each other, sometimes some leading to what seems like or may be dead ends, all making it even more unclear on where to go. And this happens several times in the fight if you don't immediately delete the boss. And the boss can drop nothing if you are unlucky.

I will only be doing this fight once per league I guess, just so I can progress.

EDIT: I went in blind for these fights, after looking it up apparently you are supposed to follow the flow of the ooze. Problem is, I actually tried this during my fights and it didn't work for me. And sometimes there didn't seem to be any flow at all. Don't know what to make of that.

Yes. I had same impression during second fight. WTF am I supposed to do in that swamp area??? I thought I just need to jump between islands and this is the path. Or maybe those triangular stones point the direction where I should go? This part is really confusing. So on third fight I just googled first what should I do there. Then it becomes quite trivial.
yeah, other console jump'n runs like super mario make it much easier to move your joystick in the right direction.
