I really like where D&D's at, since it has multiple classes at every point along the "at will" to "once per day" spectrum, so players can pick what they like. D&D 4e tried homogenizing everyone into having mostly "at will" powers and players (myself included) hated it.

Agreed about not liking that D&D sucks all the air out of the room, though.

Unpopularly, me and my friends actually enjoyed 4e and I'll probably start up a campaign again sometime soon... But I can see how it could be perceived as more of a boardgame-resource-managing type of game.

But oh well if we enjoy ourselves, why not?

We played like 3 sessions and didn't like it, but I've been thinking about trying it again soon to give it another try. The trick is to find players who want to play with me who aren't like "Eewww 4th edition".

It's funny how there are so many people that are like "ew 4th edition", but there are also many threads where people propose fixes for 5e that reinvent 4th edition.

Yes, that can be the trick. Luckily, back then I worked with new, Dutch players, who didn't know anything about 4e or its controversy in the first place.
