Looks like neither were granted:
"on average, loading screens are up for around one minute and twenty five seconds" and "If you go into a building to talk to a guy to hand in a quest, then want to head off to a new district to do something else, you'll get a load screen as you enter the building, one as you leave the building, and then another as you travel to the new district. That's four and a half minutes loading to about thirty seconds of gameplay."
"The game crashes with alarming regularity, so there's a reload every time you get blue screened"
Now I got a PS4 Pro (which has faster disk access) with an SSD, so my loading times would probably be shorter. But from the roughly 60 hours I sunk int "PoE 1" so far, way more than half are loading times, fiddling with the inventory to sell stuff and to check whether a weapon/some equipment is good for a character. Why, o why, can't you switch characters while you check out a a weapon/some equipment?
I guess I'll have to skip this one.
