I don't think that people are challenging your criticisms so much as the way that you express them, and how you want them to be addressed. You prefer linear, combat based adventures....and that's cool. But that's a deviation from what's expected in the design of the game, so it may require some adjustment to make the rules as designed work for you. I think this edition is the most open to an array of playstyles and approaches to the game. However, I think it achieves that be being incredibly moddable. So as the most easily changed version of the game, it can most easily accommodate a variety of playstyles. I don't think this edition embraces roleplaying over combat, necessarily. I think they are given pretty equal weight. There are less rules for tactical mini battles than some prior editions, but those are pretty easily added. In my home game, we use minis more often than not, and I don't think doing so is all that difficult. Well I just had to retype my original replies because of this.....<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Kidding! Thanks! I don't always manage to remain unsnarky, but I try.</blockquote>
