But it's an interesting topic so I'll chime in.4E had some really interesting ideas that didn't make it into 5E. I vastly prefer 5E, but if you had to twist my arm I would cite the following regrets:* 4E does more than any other edition to encourage player teamwork and dynamic combats. * 4E has better support for mundane (martial) PCs -- I loved the 4E versions of the warlord and ranger, and it was the first edition where I felt like an all-mundane party could still give every player a distinct role.But these are minor regrets, and I'm not looking back. 4E also contained a lot of crunch that barely mattered (e.g. feats and magic items) and as others have said the proportion of time spent on combats vs RP was a deal-killer for me.</blockquote>
