I really do like most of the game but there are a couple of deal breakers that are making me not want to continue playing this game.
Food. Rarely if ever does food come up in D&D. Usually only if it is a major plot point (i.e. stuck in the northern waste, lost running out of rations). This alone may stop me from ever finishing the game or even playing it when full release comes out. I get the complaints people had about resting, I just don't agree with them. If you want to play it so you can only take 1 long rest per so many hours go ahead no one is stopping you, but to restrict it for others, make it longer to play because you have to look around for food, ugh boring. If I have to find things I want quests, adventure not hunting for food so I can rest so I can then attempt the next fight. Maybe you could try making this an optional rule so those of us who don't want hours of food collecting can enjoy it too?
Money. Playing D&D I have never had to fill packs with trash to sell. Money is so tight in the game that we have to fill our packs with plates, cups, jugs, garbage and run back to sell it then run back to where we are adventuring. This takes me out of the immersion really quickly. It takes time, it's boring and repetitive. Nothing is better than finding good loot, but no one wants to keep filling the bags to sell junk. That is very video game and less D&D.
As a DM if I made my players have to loot every cup, plate, and tool loading up their packs so they could barely move because that is the only way to get money to buy food, armor and weapons. Then need that food to rest we would never get anywhere in our sessions. We only have 2 /1/2 hours a week. I would lose players. I want to play a video game but feel like I'm playing D&D around the table. I loved the day 1 version, Money and the ground effects were my only complaints (ground effects were a huge problem felt like DOS2 but no mechanics for players to survive), now it's money and the food/rest, and ground effects. (I still have a problem with how many stupid low level mobs carry around oil and other flammable liquids)
