A slog? Man, my experience was completely different. I was intentionally looking for more to do before I confronted the brain.
Some of the best "dungeons" are in act 3. House of Hope is my favorite sub-area in the entire game.
The final battle in the house of hope, with the custom song, was the highlight of the game
The pacing when you get to act 3 is off. You've just made major progress in your personal quest, and discovered that there's a plot to take over the entire world, and you stop to help a kid find his mommy, and investigate a missing hooker? I had to ask for help on how to get into the city because I declined all of those quests because I felt like I had more important things to do. That said, the game is still a monumental achievement, and probably the best game I've ever played. You can't really fault it that it's still not as good the third time you play through it.
