I don't know if it's right to think this. But reading many posts here makes me think that what they want to tell is that "I want my D4 wipe the screen with one blow Spiritborn" - "mommy says I'm a good gamer"..."and if i'm dying and not findig a game fun it's the games fault, and the people that made it are stupid, and i'm right". Or something like that.
It's early access.

This game isn't dark souls lmao.
Its hard because your gear is absolute garbage, just go buy some on poe trade for 1ex. You can buy a weapon right now for any class any build for 1ex that will literally let you kill every boss in acts in less than 30 seconds. Buy some resist gear and now instead of 90% of boss attacks one shotting you if you don't roll, only 10-20% will.
Game is made significantly easier through gear, and you have an official trade site and extremely easy p2p trading that facilitates that. If you want a soulslike expierence, play SSF, but don't play tradecore/standard and just refuse to trade for some inane reason.
THIS!!! People HAVE to understand: GOOD GEAR MATTERS! Upgrade your main skill as often as possible! I was one of these complainers, too, but I'm getting it now! CHECK VENDORS ON EVERY LEVEL-UP! If you don't see what you're looking for, check trade! There's ALWAYS something that's better than your current gear! ALWAYS! And find good skills that interact with each other! For example: Lightning Arrow + Lightning Rod

You talk as if people have never played a game before and don't know what to do...

im pretty convinced that the vast majority of the people singing praise about the design are campaign only players (and some of them have even admitted to this)
Thats a lot of words to say 'not elitist snobs'.
Lots of complaints can be analysed by the people infinitely smarter than the people making posts. FRom what i can tell from the patch notes the developers seem to be seeing the problems behind the Complaints/Feedback
Most people complaining about difficuty in the first few days are obviously only reporting theor own teething problems, it should be obvious to most other people that dont pay their way to high levels or just use higher level friends to drag their incompetent behinds that the starter areas upto level 8 or so need some extra balancing for new charcters that have poor gear. Obviously of you 'cheat' or pay your way to higher levels you are clueless about this issue.
Heck even the whole dodge roll/getting trapped issue was a 2nd order issue of not being able to avoid packs on tight areas because of the above mentioned difficulty issues, again with new players.
I'm not sure if the itemisation mechanics were discussed prior to EA launch, but as one of the few people who seems to like avoiding watching a billion hours of video before i play a game i feel that maybe something was missed in this regard.
for the people wanting 'better POE1' have you been sleeping that past few years leagues/seasons are how devlopeslearn what players like, if you are going to complain about everything thats not perfect, dont quit the game... quit the internet, you'll be happier trust me.
You know nothing about PoE, you know nothing about GGG, 0 supporter packs so a key was given for free, joined just on PoE 2 release meaning just one more hype sheep.
Someone like you should just stay quiet instead of being on the forums talking too much about something you know nothing about, i bet you didnt even reach the maps yet, probably not even cruel.
And yes, im an elitist jerk when it comes to PoE, i´ve been around for a long time and it´s my favourite game of all time and i wanna keep it that way, PoE 1 isnt gonna recieve the same support as it did before, so i want PoE 2 to be good.
And i know GGG will fix the game, just dont want dont want them to fix it for someone who was never present and leave the ones who helped building this caste outside of it.
Love you GGG, despite you f***kers getting me on my nerves sometimes.

I agree with OP
I was told this was a POE game. Two years ago we were told it was an update to POE1 and that we would be playing in the same game/servers.
Then some shmuck at GGG played Elden Ring and wanted POE2 to be that but didnt tell us that.
POE2 is NOT a POE game. Its a Diablo-like Souls-like game with a POE skin.
Im not happy about it.
Unless they make a lot of changes to POE2 I wont be playing it

We'll we just have to see who's right. Us poe2 was a series of bad decisions against the people who funded it. Or the people who say git gud and haven't even made it to maps after a week🤣.
Nice !

I'm not using a fucking trade site so I can complete the goddamn campaign.
Trade and crafting are for optimizing endgame, period. Any game that expects me to stop playing during campaign so I can upgrade my fucking gear is a game I won't be playing.

This kind of posts always make me laugh..
Like GGG would listen to a random nobody from the forum .
This posts are exactly the same as with prayers, you hope someone hears you out there, but you only look like a fool :))

GGG will not "pick a side".
They will do whatever maximizes profit, and to do that they will slowly follow the trending numbers.
That is my prediction.
The decision to opt for Sanctum and Ultimatum for gatekeeping ascendancies tells me they do not care about the average gamers opinion.
Which leads me to think that POE2 will be heading towards the whales.
They might even be tracking the top spenders in POE1's actual feedback on the forums, and their playtime, -not really caring about anything else.
Until they make obvious easy changes to most people agree about -namely fixing ascendancies, reducing gold cost for respec'ing, and balancing certain skills rather than nerfing them, I'm presuming POE2 is aimed at profit, not the average gamer experience.
