Why does Enigma get so much hate?

In addition to what many have already mentioned here, I think there are several other factors we may not be discussing. 

In short, after 3 years since ARTPOP many fans were eager for Gaga's next step and sound. When Joanne arrived in 2016 the sound was a STARK contrast to what made many fans fall in love with her, dance music. Also, Joanne is a very rock and country inspired album, very Americana. Therefore I can see why many non-Americans weren't into it. Some supported it, I think as a "Ok well the NEXT one is going to be back to what we love. "

The JWT international dates were cancelled (well...postponed then cancelled again) which left many non-American fans frustrated. 

Then it was announced that ASIB was happening and the music turned out to be very rock, Americana inspired as well. Still not very universal for a world stage but the album/film and Shallow ended up doing really well internationally.  

Enigma was announced with super GAGA imagery and it was probably thought "Ok, here's the Gaga we know. Look like she's about to serve some serious dance music." Then Enigma premiered and there was no new music, no new arrangements, same songs she's been performing for years, same choreo, same storyline as BTWB, and arguably not her best tour/performance/set. All this wrapped around the fact that again, 90% of her fans wouldn't be able to go. So there's a lot more involved than Enigma itself. I think many fans are tired of waiting for the Gaga they have missed, the pop-dance bitch that doesn't give a **** what anyone thinks. The whole Joanne + ASIB + Oscar era at times felt inauthentic and drawn out. I think many fans are tired of waiting, either for a tour date in their country or for dance music that inspired them again. Just my thoughts. 

I'm an American monster and still can't afford to go. I can only imagine how my international monsters feel. 

Wow I put so much thought into this and not even a Sad reaction. This is almost as disappointing as the LG6 wait

I attended on NYE and I enjoyed it but I can see why people don’t like it. 

It could have been better. Also it’s super expensive & many fans around the world can’t go.
