POE2 and my feels

I'm gonna try and break down what I am currently feeling about the game. I know I'm not some well-known player, but I've been with GGG since the beginning and I hope people agree or are willing to discuss before they dismiss. I'm an open mind and will try not to judge... it's a skill issue. Lol. Yea, I

I'll edit this as I progress further into the game.

1. Bosses, I've loved each boss, they're active and feel like a dance you have with a boss in Dark Souls or Elden Ring. None of them feel unfair and the addition of boss resetting it's health on a failure, gives a sense of achievement when you do beat the boss. The final Act 1 boss Count Geonor in particular was a load of fun.

2. Movement, WASD provides me more precise movement, not really much to say here, I'm converted.

3. Area monster resets after you die... is a miserable experience, turns challenge into tedium. It makes sense for bosses, but I abhor that it's also for monsters just roaming around.

4. Sanctum, I haven't gotten to ascendancy yet, but it's Sanctum and Sanctum is just bad IMO.

5. Servers have been stable with only 1 disconnect in my 8-9 hours played yesterday.

6. Difficulty, I am an avid Souls player and I know POE2 is going to try and fill another niche from POE1 and the older Diablo games. I love the challenge, but I can see them doing some nerfs because some of those yellow mobs hit harder than some bosses and there is some obvious overtuning.

7. Story, I'm not really deep enough into it to really give any quality assessment, but the voice acting has been fantastic.

8. Drop rates, seem... mixed at best and have seen maybe 2-3 yellow items and 2 uniques by level 20-21. I'm not sure if it's going to pick up or slow down at this time.

-Bugs noticed-

1. When using unearth in the left click spot, it conflicts with picking up items off the ground, haven't noticed this with any other skill.
I got the sauce.

POE1 & 2 enjoyer.

Well, this is the only part so far that is exactly like POE1 it seems. :)
