WoTR is the prime example of how having too many options can be bad for casual gamers, there are too many many classes and subclasses, too many spells, the party is too large. Pathfinder is good for hardcore nerds, but for me it is too confusing and boring.
This sadly is why we do not see games like BG2, Arcanum, Planescape torment, Wizardry 8 not much anymore. And games that try to simplify stuff like PoE/Deadfire, end up not doing that well WITH THE CASUAL CROWD. Which is 90% of gamers nowdays. These people will say that all these old games are <annoying> <SLOW> <complicated> <pointless mechanics> <look dated and confusing> <repetitive>...
I love the Pathfinder series PRECISELY why you dislike it. TONS OF STUFF and OPTIONS; Yet its MODERN in design. Its like your offered a HUGE meal from worldwide dishes to try out, from the 90s up to now... and be like, naaah... Taco bell is fine. I think we should be thankful for that, whether or not the story/gameplay doesn't hold up to everyone's <perfection> appeal. Theres a reason why Diablo was so successful back in the days too. It simplified everything.
