It is just that you get a standard version and can deviate by DMG optional rules and leaving out optional rules from the PHB.Once I started using optional rules I liked (and modified to my tastes), those which I don't forget I am using all the time, 5e became really really fun for me.Yes, I wish that short and long rests for example would have several options spelled out in the PHB, because for many people the PHB is the most common rules source and everything else is too often ignored. Also it could be more prominent that backgrounds are just examples of the (non optional but core) background rule.So in 6e bringing some important options more into the foreground would help the game a lot.What I also expect is a consolidation of the PHB. Maybe linking to alternate rules in the DMG. I know that for the first run cross references between books are difficult, but for my vision of 6e it should be easily possible. Especially with digital versions.I would also expect a reorganisation of class and subclass. A bit more standard progression. I think 5e fell victim to the dogma, that it may not resemble 4e too much. I guess in 6e you can bring back things from 4e that were actually good (and were replaced in 5e by similar but sometimes inferior rules).</blockquote>
