Bro, if you want simple, play shadow dark. This is not. Suggestion, this is you complaining and being crazy. It's fine if you want simple gameplay, but complexity is what makes DND fun for me and others. Simply, just play mouse guard or shadowdark if you want simple and intuitive gameplay, this is not the system for it.
Have they said whether they plan on adding more subclasses in the future?
A FR book is due out in September with a few new subclasses. Also an eberron book is coming with an updated artificer, along with its subclasses, and potentially a new artificer subclass.
It is important for everybody in this thread to remember that one of their primary goals for specifically the classes/subclasses included in the PHB was to recreate everything in the 2014 PHB first and then round out the subclasses with the most iconic subclasses available. The only classes with missing 2014 PHB options were the ones which had more than four subclasses (cleric, wizard). Artificer and other subclasses were not included because 1, you have to draw the line on scope somewhere and 2, they were not in the original 2014 PHB. We are very likely to get a lot of the "old" subclasses back in a new 2024 sourcebook similar to Xanathar's Guide to Everything. I, for one, hope whenever they release core books, they stick to the idea of keeping the number of subclasses even for all classes (i.e. right now we have 4 subclasses per class, I hope a new book brings us to either 5 or 6 subclasses per class).

So you like the AD&D 1e classes style.

Not sure if they've explicitly said so, but it's safe to assume that they are adding more subclasses. The recent Forgotten Realms UA https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/ua/forgotten-realms-subclasses included several.

Awesome, thank you
