One experience I had in my 4e days, and then continued into 5e (but with much worse combat, so it became egregious) was that our dungeons always felt anemic compared to the fantasy of these elaborate complexes with secrets and stuff-- the rules didn't do enough to simulate the feeling of engaging with the dungeon as an activity. But its also conceivable that there are games that overdesign dungeon crawling for my tastes, or games where the premise doesn't invite dungeon crawling (Lancer Battlegroup comes to mind, which is essentially just character drama and fleet battles, so combat + freeform roleplaying + simple out-of-combat resolution, is just fine.)</p></blockquote><p></p>
