I played and ran a lot of 3.x and adjacent games, then got kinda burnt-out. My wife picked up the 5E books for her own reasons, and flipping through them I saw stuff that I liked and that made sense. In 2+ years of intensive play (primarily DMing) I've found that the game almost always behaves the way I expect it to--and if it doesn't, it's easy to houserule so it does (though it's worth considering the unexpected behavior to be maybe a feature instead of a bug). Switching back and forth between a PF1 game I play in and 5E just makes all the 3-dot-Pathfinder bonus bloat more obvious, and kinda obnoxious to deal with.The biggest selling point for me was that it's not necessary to use a computer to keep track of the character sheet. Going back to pencil-on-paper helped get my brain back to a place where I could enjoy the game. YMMV, here, of course.</blockquote>
