I'm glad they allow all classes to have a use for their bonus actions. It isn't fun clicking 'end turn' with half of your actions basically unusable.
I'm glad that they gave martial classes some cool abilities to use with their weapons, gods know they needed something unique to do other than bonk over and over again.
I'm glad they added things like height advantage and expanded elemental interactions. Grease/Web + Fireball and freezing wet stuff were pretty much the only interactions in the PHB and it is nice to have other interesting things happening.
I like that we can get more than three decent magic items. I'm not sure how you personally feel about that, but I love the fact that I'm not just stuck with a weapon, armor, and shield for my magic items. New amulets, rings, and bracelets let me experience cool powers I would never otherwise have access to.
Magic items that interlink and provide a sort of 'set bonus' are a nice addition as well.

Those were all good changes. They were introduced patch by patch though and were a direct answer to our criticism. I remember people saying that martial classes are boring in BG3 when compared to casters and then they introduced weapon actions. Ranger changes were appreciated by all as well, at least the initial ones. Patch 9 arguably pushed ranger over the top, I don't know if you've played but the beast master's companions are stupidly overpowered now. What they did now is such a big and sudden design decision, especially the multi classing changes. They just forced those on us without any proper open testing, without warning, without anything and I bet those will be hard to reverse. I am very curious about how this all turns out, I wonder why were they really confident enough to override the rules that's been there for a long time and proved to be half-decent at least. I'll be surprised if those recent changes result into a better experience, I'll try and hope for the best.
