I know I sound bitter, but that's the way I see it and the current direction of development gives me little hope that things would change.

Major problem is that we don't actually know their direction. If someone at Larian said " We're going to build an actual DnD game, so wait for the release" or "We're not going to stick to every DnD rule, the homebrew stays", that would clarify a lot of things and our feedback would be more narrow and precise

Just for clarification: I don't mind some deviations from the actual 5e rules, like potions as a bonus action (within reason of course, a haste potion should not allow for two spells) or the +2/-2 modifier for being on higher/lower ground.
Homebrew stuff can be ok, after all almost every PnP group has their house rules.

But as an official D&D product, they shouldn't deviate too far from the actual rules.
