It's slow as fuck. You have to walk around a huge map spamming your resource generators just to hit once with your mediocre resource spending skills. There's no feeling of progression because you don't actually get stronger. Monsters just level up with you so it's always the same. The leveling in an ARPG is usually my favorite part. Trying out new skills, getting stronger, upgrading gear constantly. This game just fucking killed that. Skills are underpowered and uninteresting, did not feel like I was getting stronger at all and I rarely found gear upgrades.

It's just fucking boring. I've played most ARPG's out there and have never been so bored of the gameplay like I was with D4. I'll stick to PoE and vanilla/modded D2.

Sounds like you have a terrible build

I played Druid and tried every skill, they were all underwhelming/boring. I shouldn't have to play a specific build or class to have fun.
