After reading 2e I find it so elegant. And the idea of just rolling up a character isn't a crazy fantasy anymore.

Its so satisfying to get rid of feats, complicated skills, and 3e multiclassing.

In hindsight feats seem to exist to either underperform or overperform.

To add annoying time taking bonuses or to replicate things that don't need limited mechanical backing (Or at least in that form)
