I think I'd like to see a few attempts at more of those "snowflake" feats that cannot actually be categorized much. To emphasize the whole idea that 5e feats should represent a lot more than just a small bonus, but rather an identity of the character, IIRC during DnDNext playtest there were some feats that were inspired by unique character concepts, for example the Arcane Archer was one of those feats. Eventually it became a whole archetype, presumably because one feat was still too small to contain the concept properly. But there is a lot of potential to find other character concepts that aren't so large as to require a subclass. For instance, just like the Arcane Archer, there could be other old prestige classes that could be made into 5e feats. The key for success would probably be in picking those few who had a strong conceptual flavor, but also few defining features (otherwise they would be too complex to be captured by a single feat), and at the same time not be tied to a single base class. I'd love to see a few attempts at these...</blockquote>
