Their are options to make the game very difficult that make more sense than your paradox easy, medium and hard game settings. You can customize the difficulty settings but in a nut shell if you are a caster and get engaged in melee, you can be one shotted. If you are a fighter and get caught against a mage you can be one shotted.
It is an unforgiving game if you play it like you would an arcade game or Diablo. Just running around munching on things is not part of this game in general which I could see being a turn off.
I am betting this would appeal to the Diablo players but it is way more cerebral than Diablo unless you want to die a lot so Diablo players may reject it. I can see why this is not the game for your average player.
It reminds me very much of another game I just recently played. Dominions 5. Dominions 5 looks simple to play until you get your assed handed to multiple times in a row and then you start to realize maybe this may require some actual strategy.
I am not sure this will be a popular game because of the reasons I list above. That and I am not sure there is enough content for the difficulty. Playing Witcher 3 on hard is probably the more attractive option given the content but I figured I would play it out and find out. For me the most important thing is, if you set it up correctly the games can be very difficult which I am more than good with. Otherwise it would get boring.
