I loved all the improvements to the gem system. Low lvl crafting felt good and the improvements, while quite small, we’re noticeable. It’s just a really bad pace for me. I never felt the dps ramp up at all. It never felt like i was killing anything faster or more efficiently and the “combos” while cool still involved just more clicking. I never felt like the game play improved. Just mechanics and graphics and polish.

I’m not a Souls person and i hated the extra hard mode they added to PoE1 so maybe the game just isn’t for me.
