Though on my first time through the trial, only recently, I didn't even realise any of the cannon mechanics were going on. Just went along on my usual way being a DPS and hitting things that were within range.... perhaps it needed some more prompts with featured speech bubbles urging us to use the cannons, get up on the towers, and so on. It would draw attention to the fact that they are there, and even if you're not sure how to use it yourself you could see what the other players are doing with it.
Actually, the NPCs did have dialogue bubbles prompting you to use the chains and cannons. Missing a cannon shot was costly, but the big rub was having to literally let it all play out to the end after a costly mistake. I can understand people not liking that, but even then, Steps was never difficult. It just called for more than blind DPS.
