While I think it may be a little unfair to say that players of pathfinder aren't free thinking creative types, I can understand that many may not try things as much if they think there isn't a rule for it or if they think that to do something requires a feat. I also wouldn't be surprised if players of pathfinder like it because of the detailed rules. It means there will be no surprises when they try something since they'll know the underlying rule behind it. I also think with new players learning a game, they may be more inclined to look at their character sheet and use what's written there as what their character can do, this could easily happen with 5e as well whether they are creative or not.
Pathfinder has some great ideas but mainly I prefer 5e because of laziness. I just can't be bothered learning all the rules or knowing all the feats. It could happen again with 5e where instead of looking at all of the supplements I end up just sticking to choosing feats from the PHB. Luckily, 5e isn't at that point yet so it is easy enough to keep up with everything.
Boop!
