Are you enjoying the league mechanic?

I have to say I'm struggling with it. The lake is just a map layout that I don't really want to run. It's too confined, too long and is not nearly rewarding enough in my experience. Maybe there's some cool things I haven't seen but man, I'd almost rather run heist...

no. ts quite boring and unrewarding.
It is absurdly boring already after doing 12 lakes and utterly unrewarding as hell in terms of rewards.
All-time non-streamer luckless dropless rewardless tons-of-time-playing non-TFT-er 100% solo player.
So, it just turns out, we were lied to for years with the promises of a two-storied one PoE 4.0.
All these worse and worse beta leagues, all these braindead changes, all lead to this.
Right now the mechanic is a worse Synthesis, albeit less buggy. Another beta test for PoE 2.

Quite possibly 10-15x less loot than previous league mechanics which is a head scratcher. Maybe it's better in higher tier maps but in low tier maps I don't see a point to doing them.
Unless you have a delirium mirror in it, it seems better to skip.

This is not a complaint or dislike, just my opinion. Other mechanics are more rewarding for your time.
Yet another boring and unfun league topped with juicy nerfs

Can't remember when was the last league I enjoyed and didn't feel like a boring endless grind
Setting up the mechanic is really fun and fast doesn't intrude very much

the league mechanic itself is torturous, 50% is the uniform tileset i really think it was a mistake but it feels worse than delirium for instant boredom inducement i think its a grey washout psychological effect tbh.

The loot is horrendous so far and the only reason to run it is to try and get a reddit ring, however as i've only seen 2 of those posted i'm gonna go ahead and say the chances of a reddit ring are as bad as expected.

Rings are exciting, and some of the platforms are OK but its also extremely rippy for certain tiles and feels worse than usual for early HC interaction.

Honestly overall though I think AN is ruining the experience for nearly every content type. I don't think the AN designers appreciate just how bad the game feels when monsters have 200% overcapped resist and there are SO many combinations that lead to this.
There has not been a good league since GGG sold out. Just wait for POE 2 at this point.
I am only at act 5 so I have no right to speak but I will do anyway.
So far the mechanic seems to have very few tiles with very little variety. Looks like every tile always comes with the same mobs so it will be boring very fast.
Nope, gets boring fast & unrewarding.
