I'm interested in the setting, not in 5e. I GM it only to finish my current campaign, but 5e is starting to show cracks and being exposed by other games.
Symbaroum was initially published with it's own rules (a roll under d20 system, no levels, magic corrupts, combat is deadly, fairly rules lite compared to 5e). The 5e flavoured books try and adapt the setting to that system. So if you don't dig 5e there is always that option. Been playing it for a few years. The setting is fantastic, but I don't know how they can make 5e work with it, they must change the 5e magic system because the corruption of magic is a major thing in the setting.
I'm very interested in this setting as with many others. I wish I had enough groups and available hours to try them all.
You and me both! That is the curse of the modern player! :)

I agree... right now, my fave is Year Zero Engine

For myself, you spend far too much time on production values and not enough on the actual content.
