It's still more intuitive and easy to work the mechanics than the Uber Lilith fight!
Been putting some hours in the last week and got up to torment 8 before it's starting to 'feel' hard, need a few items to get my build fully working but RNG hasn't been great no matter which method I use to try getting them.
This weekend I was chipping away at side quests between war plans to get the new content polished off, not many quests left to do but unless I start getting lucky with drops I can't see my getting the seasonal rewards unlocked as I'm up to needing to kill Lilith on T8 or above.

really can't tell if I should bite the bullet and grab the expansion
I think a lot of players won't manage to complete the seasonal journey. Tier 8/9 are locked behind Lilith & Mephisto boss fights which require broken meta builds to beat ie. whirlwind barb, ball lightning sorc. Those boss fights are horribly designed and unfun. I've beaten Lilith and not sure I can be bothered continuing to grind for gear, glyphs etc to beat Mephisto.
Don't disagree with you, when I first played I couldn't get past the one shot mechanic with Lillith, was 1 shotting her but got fed up with running around to 'dodging stuff' doing the Mephisto fight in the story was just a cluster of stuff on the screen and his Uber version has an extra phase.
Its definitely possible without a meta build, I completed the season journey on a Blazing Scream Warlock which maxroll have listed as C Tier so I imagine its possible with quite a few other builds. I tend to start the season blind with something that is different/new for me and then switch to a meta build to finish up. Just cleared T12 Mephisto now so not much left on my ticklist. If anyone wants a carry through some of the challenges I'd be happy to help.
Lol. It's really not ... I've yet to see a video of anyone beating the Mephisto fight properly by engaging with the full mechanics. Unless you count "skill" as looking up a meta build on Maxroll and Mobalytics.TLDR: Skill issue on the rest of you

Got to 70, derping around without any real build and random sorcerer legendaries I found while levelling. Have just finished the main campaign again, to refresh my memory and to ogle Lilith, naturally.
Now what's the goal - obviously I want to move on to Skovos and do the next story, is it worth wrapping up the original content? Blue quests, dungeons etc? I did the strongholds at least for the waypoints.
There's just a million different map icons and currencies and ways to change the gears it's feeling a little overwhelming compared to diablo 3, which felt a lot simpler.
