I don't think I mind 5e that much, from what I see at least and from what I experienced in Solasta (the biggest dislike was concentration per 1 active spell), it's simply a different flavor that's simpler. Sven put it perfectly, a softcore RPG. The turned based combat is the bigger issue for me, it's just so slow and limiting. It may be a different story when I play, but I doubt I will change my opinion much.
