If by "easy" you mean when you have to tedioiusly mine 12 obsidian blocks down near some dangerous lava, then go to Hell and kill those ****ing blazes to get ONE blaze rod to make a stand, and then you have to make a ****load of bottles out of glass to get some water, then get glowstone, redstone, and netherwarts just for bloody base ingredients, then you have to wait 3 minutes just for one ingredient to get into three bottles of water, then yeah it's really really easy.
Monsters have gotten buffed health and all weapons have been weakened. A zombie can take 4 hits from a diamond sword before keeling over, so there's more importance towards potions and enchanting.

Any potion so far that adds something good to you like strength or speed has to be made from an akward potion which has to be made from netherwarts which in turn have to be found from the nether which require diamond and obsidian so they are not that easy to even begin to search for the ingredients. And so far from me searching in the nether for like 45 minutes i have not found a nether wart. So they are not that easy to get.
First, you have to get 3 diamond (and a stick) and dangerously (and slowly) mine 12 obsidian, make a Flint and Steel, and then you have to kill dozens of Blazes just to find a rod that doesn't fall into lava, then you have to find all the rare and hard to find materials (Ghast tears, Slimeballs, Netherwart etc.), then you need water, coal and sand to make the bottles. and then you need to wait a long time for the potions to finish. Plus, they have limited time.
And I think with the upgraded mobs (Blazes, more Hp, Enderman teleporting, Enderdragon etc.) this is pretty good.

While I do agree that it makes Minecraft easier. You do get them later on in the game tho, When it already is easy. I just think it makes it easier for You to build, and by the time You can make any useful potions You'll be at the point when Your only building most of the time. But that's just My opinion.
That's a good point, minecraft is never really hard by the time you are 'done' with the game(have plenty of diamond for tools, armor, extensive base with plenty of storage, furnaces, farms, maybe even a mob grinder or two, etc. Have a fence around your house and snipe down anything that looks like it's heading your way. By that time most of the mines will be lit with torches too, so mining is even safe! At that point the game is easy. And that's the point when you can get potions!
But I don't think potions make it easier to get to that 'win game' point, since you can't get them too early on in the game. At least that's my impression. Maybe if we started out with a brewing stand in the beginning and didn't need netherwart to brew potions it would make it much easier.
I can see potions making games where you already had everything easier! But starting a new game from scratch, I don't see them helping much, until you are to the point where you can get to the nether/ender etc.

1: You need to get 3 diamonds in order to get 10 - 14 obsidian
2: You need to fight though the Nether to get Ghast tears and stuff from other creatures
3: You need to make a brewing stand
4: You need to learn how to make the proper potion.
The Nether is more dangerous now with the Magma Cubes and Blazes.
Potions will not change the Damn Game!!!
to even make the crappiest potion ever you need to go to the nether
the game is still being made
you need to find a nether stronghold to makr the potion thing
take in all facts before crying
for example.

word potion. minecraft is made to easy
learn about all the things you can before makeing accusations
*Cough* ADVENTURE UPDATE *cough* Notch wanted to add more of a thrill to this game, especially with the addition of strongholds, abandoned mineshafts, and nether ruins. He wanted to make sure that people just didn't sit in their homes and sip tea.
It will make the game too easy. PvP is going to be based on potions, I can already tell. In addition, players will be checking the Minecraft Wiki for all potion combinations. It's basically like looking up cheat codes. Same goes for the enchantments.
Minecraft was an easy enough game to begin with, but now it's gotten even easier with potions. Even before, with enough patience, you could kill most mobs in the game with your bare fists. With a diamond sword, iron armor, and a bow, you were pretty much god. But now, it gets even easier with potions that buff your attacks, increase your speed, allow you to entirely avoid fire damage, and etc. Most things die with two hits from a diamond sword, why do we need to buff that?
Minecraft was simply building, now we have potions that let us jump higher, potions that let us run faster, all this non-sense (in my opinion). Again, why do we need all this?
Not to mention how this will effect PvP servers, this isn't balanced at all for SMP!
- Short rant
Here is my short rant, do read op.
You have to get 3 diamond to start, which can be easy if you get lucky by finding a mine shaft, and even then get lucky again to find some in a chest. Then you must mine 10-14 obsidian, which isn't hard but tedious, OR you could use the bucket of lava and water method to get to the nether. Then you have to first find a nether ruin, then be lucky enough to find nether warts in it, that is just so you can make the awkward potion, then you need to be able to farm blaze rods in order to make some of the better potions in my opinion, Or you have to farm ghasts to make the health potions, which is also difficult. Then you can efficiently make potions. Not very easy.

Let's just say we can assume the Ender Monsters will be very, very hard.
