In ShadowRun Returns through both campaigns I had Mystic Adepts focusing mostly on melee. I came into this game with a strong background in D&D 3.5/Pathfinder, which I love the system, but main game kind went temporarily on hiatus. I picked SR 5 with some other friends as a place holder/second game. Current game is going great, love my character, our party is fun, and our GM is good at rolling with our collective insanity. I will say this though, I share may of the posters concerns/frustration with the current rules and this edition's editorial quality of the printed material. I will also state that I most likely not being picking up another hard copy because my core book is less than a year old and one page has fallen out, with others trying to do the same. Now, to counter, I love that eBooks get free updates, at least through drivethoughrpg. So I will gladly support SR5 through them.
