Live deep starting hand selection and open raise sizing. 5/10+

How much does being 200bb+ effective affect our starting hand selection in these soft live fr games?  Should we be opening wider in all positions because of the overall softness?  We're also not getting 3bet much which should also change things.  Say our normal EP range is something like this: 22/55+, ATs+, AJo+, JTs+, KQ, KJs+.  Should we be adding in like A2s+, All broadway, 56s+ etc and then extrapolate from there as we move closer to the btn?  I guess my question is how should we be adapting our opening strategy for these deep (200bb+) live games?  

What about adopting a lot of open limping with our entire range in ep?  Obviously if we start getting isolated a ton then it doesn't make sense but until then shouldn't we be seeing cheap flops vs. the terrible players?

Also what about open sizes?  If we're rarely getting 3b and everyone is pretty awful shouldn't we be opening 5x+ in nearly all positions?

Thanks everyone for your input!
