Really? because I can't find any other pc games based on 5th edition dnd rules. BG3 is the first one to my knowledge. You seem to be trying to make this about the rule set, but I'm trying to focus on computer games. It may be wildly popular, but the jury is still out on whether it makes for a great computer game.
4E probably would have made a better videogame. No one ever made one, though. There's another 5e-based game entering EA in a week: Solasta: Crown of the Magister.
