map design

poe 2-(230 hrs of gameplay, two lvl 89s, and a 71)
Leveling- maps feel fine, slower paced, less mobs, a lot of damage is avoidable. has that souls like feel/arpg where its skill based but if you have a bad build your gonna have a tough time. I enjoy skill based games and fast hack/slash games, it felt like a good mix.

Endgame- It just feels like poe1 but with clunky maps. It seems intended but then they just copy pasted poe 1 at endgame but with maps not designed for it. Like they want to slow the game down but then stick you into a 5x5 ritual and spawn mobs,poison,aoe,tornados on top of you.

Slow the game down, or give more space. Been having fun but the map design can get annoying imo.
