The last time I played LE was about 6 years ago. The game has changed a lot - for the better, of course. As the PoE league was dragging on, I decided to give LE a chance and what can I say - I was not disappointed.
However, I will focus on what I would personally improve.

vision
Most of the builds I have tried cause incredible chaos on the screen. Every build on runemaster that I try, Frostclaw nova or Umbral. I had to give up because I don’t think my eyes could withstand such gameplay for a long time. The classic Hammerdin Nova with Damage Numbers Off turned out to be the most friendly in this respect. A good solution to the problem would be the introduction of mtx, which reduces visual effects. Only indicators for AoE or even, as we have in PoE, “invisible aura effects” mtx. -
endgame
Endgame needs further development. I have the impression that after reaching lvl 100, I can only focus on improving gear, i.e. pump everything to LP3 and more rare items such as Red Ring = LP2 and that’s it. Then there is stagnation as to what to do next. Looking for LP4 red Ring? It’s a bit boring and may never happen in my lifetime
.
In the future, it would be nice to have content that “you can, but you don’t have to do”. Just like we have in PoE - Delve, 5way Legion, Simulacrum, Sanctum etc. Content where you could just even spend the entire season but require really good gear. Such content could drop some gems, talismans or improved runes etc. Imagine farming some talisman that while in your inventory give you +200hp/30%ms or +1 skills/+500 armor.

controller gameplay
Auto-targeting sucks. While on hammerdine is lets say fine, that on other skills, such as javelin, frostwall requires significant improvement. It’s a pity that you can’t use the right joystick for this. I understand that your idea for it is to be inactive and work only as a cursor. But yeah auto-targeting need to be better. -
stash
Not that important but that one annoying thing when, while browsing through the chest, you press the scroll bar slightly wrong and the character automatically moves away from the chest
In general I think game is better and better.
