Many got used to it, and an even larger number of players were simply put off by it and didn't accept TE at all.
Let me quote something to you as well; someone quite eloquently summarized the general opinion:
"I have always been a fan of SOD, and I acknowledge the features that affect the gameplay mechanics in TE to the extent that it is an interesting project and, like any other, has the right to exist and be respected. But these are different Heroes. Has TE become more balanced? And by a lot? Let's say it has. Do you know what bothers those who are against TE (me, at least, as someone who is not in favor of TE)? Even though it is clear that it has become more balanced and fair, the awareness that the gameplay has been tampered with prevents me from accepting this idea. Yes, it's quite conservative. Unfortunately, arguing here is pointless; all opinions have already been expressed."
I emphasize - this is the opinion of people whom you are going to force into the Procrustean bed of unified rules, and for whom you are creating a unified balanced version.
Do you still believe in democracy? (c)
