There are a billion 'alternatives' out there.The way the game is played, the 'imbalance' you are so wounded by, doesnt seem to be an issue, at least not one that is crippling 5e's success.Maybe, just maybe, for the majority of players, the game isnt all that imbalanced at all? Maybe, the player base is not full of people looking to extract every ounce of optimization and personal attention. Maybe, and I would say the numbers actually bear this out, that player base is full of guys playing Fighters, and Champions, because maybe, they literally dont care about the perceived 'imbalance' as long as they get to have a few drinks and hit something now and again in combat, while laughing with the boys and Bob doing something stupid again while the Bard tries to get the NPC to sleep with him.But no, it cannot be that, a generation of kids who grew up worrying about balance in video games and optimizing the fun out of it, just...uhh...doesnt care, when it comes to the 'obvious' imbalance, of D&D...while they...checks notes play Fighters.</blockquote>
