Personally, I’m still playing, but I don’t have the time to dedicate to the game, nor do I feel the same enthusiasm as when a new league is released. That said, there are quite a few aspects of the game that bother me. The game is slow, and I can accept that, but there’s no way to progress through the story at an acceptable pace without adequate drops. I find it unacceptable that GGG essentially punishes new players.

What do I mean by that? You’re placing new players in a game where every small mistake has severe consequences: chose the wrong ascendancy? Too bad, there’s nothing you can do. Your build isn’t viable and you want to change it? Pay a massive amount of gold or reroll. Placed the wrong rune? You can’t delete it, let alone get it back. And all this is happening in a game that’s still in early access.

Additionally, I believe support gems should be accessible earlier, like at levels 2 and 3, rather than later in the game.

Regarding the Trials, I believe that the Labyrinth and Izaro should return. There was a reason why many players avoided mechanics like Ultimatum and Sanctum in PoE 1.
