What are you talking about? There’s a tonne of great spells in the game, and using them effectively can very often mean more to a fight than whatever raw damage a fighter can dish out. Using a mixture of both usually works best.

Hide behind a wall of fire and pick off whatever is left of anyone daft enough to run through it, hypnotize half the enemies into doing nothing for two turns, summon elemental canon fodder that can teleport around the map tossing mini fireballs, slow or hold enemies, buff your own party, turn the biggest threat into a sheep, etc, etc

Many spells but you can not cast because you only have a few spell slots. I do not want to rest all the time. This is stupid period!

Use them sparingly if you don’t want to rest as much then. You’re basically complaining that you can’t use a finite resource because you refuse to use the mechanic that recharges it. Sounds like a you problem to me.

Spell slots are a thing in D&D (it used to be much worse). Replacing them with cooldowns or something would be met by howls of outrage by fans.
