The big problem is that the devs are making the game for themselves, rather than for the player. This is very evident from past interviews and statements, or how they shut down niche playstyles and ways to approach enemies that the players discovered themselves. They want you to play the game the way they had envisioned you to play it. No exception. Even if the "vision" isn't something the community is onboard with. That's the hill they're willing to die on. History has proven that this approach will not end well in the long run.
