Does anyone else feel like the action economy and the way actions work in general in 5e both just suck?

[QUOTE="Tales and Chronicles, post: 7936534, member: 6871653"] So the game is bad because action are calculated in in-game seconds? wow. People alrealdy have a hard time figuring out how to maximize their action economy and you want to add things like '' you turn is 45 second, this cantrip use 6 second, this full spell use 21 seconds and each 5 ft of move use 2 seconds. Now what do you do on your turn? '' What a mess it would be uhhhh no? It takes like 10 minutes to don a heavy armor. Is it me or most of your posts on 5e from the last few months have been how this game sucks? Maybe its just a a bad fit, because what you seem to want out of the game is totally the opposite of what 5e propose now and will propose in the future. I'm on the team that would like an even simpler 6th edition, but when I get tired of 5e (which is often) I play more basic games, such as tiny dungeon or the black hack. You may prefer a game that is built for the level of crunch you'd like. [/QUOTE]
