Even though I know the game needs some tweaking, I was having fun with it on solo play... Regions, battlechests, etc. Then I decided to work on challenges. The online pvp is where I don't want to be. No offense but I'd rather play against AI's. It feels WAY too much like Overwatch instead of PVZ to me. I'm a decent player, not great and I can't keep up with other players. I die a lot (& quickly) which hurts the team and get bored respawning just to run in and die again. I feel like I can unload everything my character has and nothing but a little damage occurs but then get one shotted right away.
Another reason I don't think it feels the same is the maps. They feel so cluttered. I thought the same about GW2. There's just "stuff" everywhere. For me, it also makes it hard to see what is going on. There are shields and ability effects and costumes, and characters spawning all over, etc. It's just very busy compared to GW1, which will always be my favorite. Everything wasn't so fast and you had time to plan and strategize. The costumes didn't overpower the characters so much that you couldn't see what you were fighting. If you wanted to snipe, you had time to find hiding places which was always fun. Now everybody is always running around everywhere and its too crazy. Just my 2 cents worth.

Yeah most people seems to enjoy the PvE (I can't say anything about it since I only play PvP), but when it comes to multiplayer the majority seem to agree that it is a direct downgrade from the Garden Warfare series in terms of polish and overall smoothness. Hopefully they fix it soon!
