Compared to "Let's sleep in the dungeon for 18 days" of the Infinity Engine games? I memorized every corner of a certain dragon's dungeon where you could catch an 8 hour nap with orcs 30 feet from you.
Not really looking forward to going back to that. 5e rules mean my wizard isn't useless.
Wizards are extremely powerful with cantrips alone when combined with the environmental effects that people are requesting being toned down. Clerics are monsters on the battlefield even without their spells. They're annoying to play at low-levels but become the most overpowered class in the game.
Larian will need to figure out the balance between long-rests being character progression moments, and using them to trivialize the rest of the systems they've implemented in a really clever way.
