I like 5E well enough. Certainly enough to play a 5E game.
But I'm not sure I care much for OneD&D, or whatever the clown college at WOTC want to call the 5E replacement. It's not like anyone at WOTC give a shit about the players so it feels very reasonable to me that I return the favor and don't give a shit right back at them.
And I'm not blaming Larian for making a change. But I am a bit grumpy that Larian makes this kind of change and then completely refrain from commenting on it. This was supposed to be a 5E experience, not a OneD&D golden shower. If you advertise with hamburgers, and I order a hamburger, then I want a hamburger or I want to be told that I can't have one. What I don't want is someone showing up with avocado on toast and pretending that's what I ordered.
