I actually really LOVE that the DLC is basically forcing people to use the Realm of Shadow Blessings so they can't just buff up their build prior to the DLC. |
Yeah, the way Blessings work essentially prevent people from overpowering themselves in the base game.
People need to remember all the crazy buids from the base games. Fromsoft had to make sure that some of them cant just breeze through the DLC, so a new leveling system separate from the base game makes sense.
I like how Kai Cenat, who is new to the Soulslike series and just started Elden Ring a few weeks ago, was able to beat Messmer and seems to understand the game better than some hardcore Souls players.

He has his rage moments. But never stops trying to find solutions.
The sooner people accept that they're not as good as they thought, the sooner they'll start thinking outside their comfort zone and realize that their approach may not be suitable for the DLC.
And if that's not how you want to play, I hear you. It may not be for you then.
But that's not a valid criticism of the game. This roundabout approach to getting stronger was also an option in the original game. You go to dangerous areas with much stronger enemies that you can't comfortably deal with, just to get that powerful weapon or spell in order to get stronger. Etc.
