Just got the game on PS5, I've been sitting here for 20 minutes looking at a black screen with some gears turning while foreboding music plays, is it normal to take this long to boot the game on a first launch? I've never even gotten to a menu yet... What the hell do I do?

Is something like Vulnerability via Blasphemy a worthwhile curse for use with Entangle and Thrashing Vines?

I've had Temporal Chains up until now, but I then I thought that the vines from Entangle also slowed mobs

* Are you considering to add tablets to the maps tab? I really need this.
* What about 0.4.1?
* Are you planning create ladders every month? Enought time for most players. I think this can make the game alive continuously.
* Are you considering make free the private leagues? This is another option related to the prevoius one.
* The game have a lot of items, a lot of modifiers, and the probability to get the best items is far from many players. When all classes will be ready, this will be worse. How will you solve this problem?
* The game is getting more and more complicated each released version, any plan to simplify the game? New players need help to understand everything.

Is there a way to move down to the next Support Gem Box on the skills page, without clicking into it? Essentially so i can type in the skill gem, hit enter, then type in the next support etc.

Ive tried TAB and Arrows, but cant find a keybind for it, would be nice for moving info from browser over into a build write up without having to keep clicking between programs? If not all good, thougt id ask cos ive tried to do it for a while.

Cheeers :)

Do you guys think the standard league market will be more filled after this season? I won't play all leagues...

That is it, I wanna have 1 character of each ascension and then never play leagues again. I believe because the market released now, it will still take another league to be great like it should.

Right now, is there any way to trigger Lightning Bolt from Choir of the Storm without pressing any buttons except simply walking around? Something similar to Abberath's Hooves from PoE1.
