It's called "elevated language." That used to be what people expected from plays. It's not a "problem" unless you expect everything to read like David Mamet.

The "problem" is the fact that the commenter, as well as many other readers, find Shakespeare's language difficult to parse and enjoy. Obviously this is subjective. My only point was that the difficulty is more attributable to style than vocabulary.
