Will they fix the terrible corruption grind for season 2?

The thing that broke my desire to play was the corruption grind in the endgame. Having to grind each area everytime you want something different is disrespectful to the player time and usually leads to total brainless boredom, especially when you are stomping all mobs with your build.

I am fairly certain i heard something about them shortening corruption grind in one of the interviews/overviews... I'm not sure tho.

There is corruption catch up mechanics in season 1.5 tho? I assume you haven´t been playing since then?

One of the new Woven Echoes (Confluence of Oblivion) reads as follows:

"Defeat a Shade of Orobyss of each type to reset this timeline's web of echoes and gain corruption based on the highest corruption reached in any timeline by any character with access to the same stash as this one."

This should help substantially with corruption progression in other timelines. There have been other changes as well, but this one caught my eye.

That's what caused me to stop too. I even put it in my review a year ago. The game is great! Up until endgame... at which point I'd rather put glass in my eyes than continue playing. If they can make the endgame, or heck even the multiplayer, more fun and engaging then it might be worth playing the game over literally anything else. Diablo games have their flaws but they play well with others, and POE games have similar boring endgames but they are built different and can be tweaked.
