There are other interesting mechanics in 5e that I found interesting to use in a future BG game: The landscape-related ones. "Difficult terrain" and "Cover"
https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/5e_SRD:Cover
Since in DoS games you are able to use the terrain and weather as a weapon, it would be cool if they implement those.
Cover was also used in RT strategy games like Warhammer 40K so it would be no problem to use it in RTwP or TB. Larian does not have those features confirmed in any interview I know of. We have to wait until the next interview with Swen "Spoiler-free" Vincke
Edit: @Nobody_Special I will not put too much faith in PC gamer magazine. They have a nasty habit: They do not show full interviews. They add opinion and interpretations instead of the full answer. The reporter writes too much. The interviewed have some statements cut ( i supose that they found it boring)
If someone has it ( the august one¿?) would be nice to read, nonetheless.
